ObjectiveThe purpose of the study was to investigate the relations between abuse types, non-maltreatment-related trauma, and health service utilization in a sample of youth in foster care with and without chronic medical conditions.MethodA total of 213 youth, aged 8–21 years, provided self-report of general trauma and abuse exposure. Medicaid claims for each child were collected from official state databases.ResultsExposure to sexual abuse, neglect, or general trauma but not exposure to physical abuse or psychological abuse increased the rates of medical visits, while only general trauma increased medical hospitalizations.ConclusionsTrauma types are not equally predictive of health care utilization for youth with chronic health conditions.
