Class of 2015 Abstract / Objectives: Characterize all patients in the emergency room diagnosed with anxiety disorders from 11/01/2013 until 5/31/2014 to identify insurance coverage and demographic trends. Methods: Retrospective descriptive study of patients who present to the emergency department between 11/01/2013 – 05/31/2014 and discharged with a primary documented diagnosis of an anxiety disorder. Age, race, and gender were recorded in addition to insurance coverage. Results: 406 visits were reviewed: 212 (52.2%) males and 194 (47.8%) females. Average age per visit: 40.34 (SD=13.388). Race recorded with each visit: 189 (46.6%) white, 146 (36.0%) Hispanic, 42 (10.3%) African American, and 29 (2.2%) other. The most common insurance coverage was Medicaid at 63.3%, while 6.4% of visits had no insurance coverage. There was a significant difference in the distribution in number of ED visits between genders (Mann-Whitney U=17,407.5, p=0.007, sig ≥0.05). A Kruskal-Wallis Test showed a significant difference in the number of ED visits between racial groups X²=43.434, p=0.000 as well as a significant difference between Medicaid and other insurance groups X²=37.778, p=0.021. Conclusions: Men appear to have a higher frequency in anxiety symptoms requiring an ED visit than women do. White patients tend to have a greater frequency in anxiety symptoms followed by Hispanic patients. Medicaid tends to be the most prevalent insurance coverage used.
