This Month in Texas Medicine

The November issue of Texas Medicinetakes an in-depth look at Hurricane Harvey and the devastation the storm caused to the coast as well as countless medical facilities and practices. Although some short-term health concerns related to the storm might be easy to spot, the longer-term effects — those associated with stress and environmental issues — can be harder to spot. Other articles discuss adjustments insurers have made to prescription drug policies in the wake of the opioid epidemic; a UT Health Science Center data center's use of Medicare claims data; and what rural communities can do when hospitals and other practices close.
