Psychiatric genetic counseling (pGC) can improve patient empowerment and self‐efficacy. We explored the relationship between pGC and psychiatric hospitalizations, for which no prior data exist. Using Population Data BC (a provincial dataset), we tested two hypotheses: (1) among patients (>18 years) with psychiatric conditions who received pGC between May 2010 and Dec 2016 ( N = 387), compared with the year pre‐pGC, in the year post‐pGC there would be fewer (a) individuals hospitalized and (b) total hospital admissions; and (2) using a matched cohort design, compared with controls ( N = 363, matched 1:4 for sex, diagnosis, time since diagnosis, region, and age, and assigned a pseudo pGC index date), the pGC cohort ( N = 91) would have (a) more individuals whose number of hospitalizations decreased and (b) fewer hospitalizations post‐pGC/pseudo‐index. We also explored total days in hospital. Within the pGC cohort, there were fewer hospitalizations post‐pGC than pre‐ pGC ( p = 0.011, OR = 1.69), and total days in hospital decreased (1085 to 669). However, when compared to matched controls, the post‐pGC/pseudo index change in hospitalizations among pGC cases was not statistically significant, even after controlling for the higher number of hospitalizations prior. pGC may lead to fewer psychiatric hospitalizations and cost savings; further studies exploring this are warranted. |
