Quasi-experimental analysis highlights the effect of entry pathways on healthcare management and injury recurrence in active duty soldiers.

A longer wait for treatment increased the duration of care for soldiers with musculoskeletal injuries, showing pathway significance.
Results indicated that the early access pathway led to a 95% higher rate of injury recurrence compared to the direct access pathway.
Using linear and logistic regression, the study assessed the relationship between treatment initiation and patient outcomes.
The findings suggest that modifying clinical operations can enhance care pathways while affecting the likelihood of return to duty.

Suttles et al. (2025) studied this question.
