Timely access to Medicaid coverage offers many potential benefits to justice-involved adults reentering the community. In 2015 Indiana's Section 1115 Medicaid waiver (the Healthy Indiana Plan [HIP]) expanded eligibility for low-income adults. To expedite coverage for justice-involved adults, Indiana subsequently improved interagency coordination in two ways. First, the Indiana Department of Correction began initiating Medicaid applications for those in custody. Second, Medicaid began temporarily suspending coverage for people while they were incarcerated instead of discontinuing it. Prison release data from the Indiana Department of Correction linked to Medicaid enrollment data indicate that before HIP was implemented, approximately 9 percent of justice-involved adults received Medicaid coverage within 120 days of release. After HIP implementation, coverage rates increased by 9 percentage points. After both interagency coordination policies were implemented, an additional 29-percentage-point increase in coverage occurred. Furthermore, coverage effective within seven days of release increased by 14 percentage points after the interagency coordination policies went into effect. These findings support the notion that policies and procedures encouraging interagency coordination are beneficial in increasing timely access to Medicaid coverage for justice-involved people.We modeled gross domestic product (GDP) losses attributable to firearm-related fatalities in each of thirty-six Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries using the value-of-lost-output approach from 2018 to 2030. There are three categories of firearm-related fatalities physical violence, self-harm, and unintentional injury. We project that the thirty-six OECD countries will lose $239.0 billion in cumulative GDP from 2018 to 2030 from firearm-related fatalities. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/npd4928.html Most of these losses ($152.5 billion) will occur as a result of fatalities in the US. In 2030 alone, the OECD countries will collectively lose $30.4 billion (0.04 percent) of their estimated annual GDP from firearm-related fatalities. The highest relative losses will occur in Mexico and the US; the lowest will occur in Japan. Firearm-related fatalities are expected to disproportionately affect the US and Mexican economies. Across the OECD, 48.5 percent of economic losses will be attributable to physical violence, 47.0 percent to self-harm, and 4.6 percent to unintentional injury. These findings provide a more complete picture of the toll of firearm-related fatalities, a global public health crisis that, without intervention, will continue to impose significant economic losses across OECD countries.Although the US has the highest health care prices in the world, the specific mechanisms commonly used by other countries to set and update prices are often overlooked, with a tendency to favor strategies such as reducing the use of fee-for-service reimbursement. Comparing policies in three high-income countries (France, Germany, and Japan), we describe how payers and physicians engage in structured fee negotiations and standardize prices in systems where fee-for-service is the main model of outpatient physician reimbursement. The parties involved, the frequency of fee schedule updates, and the scope of the negotiations vary, but all three countries attempt to balance the interests of payers with those of physician associations. Instead of looking for policy importation, this analysis demonstrates the benefits of structuring negotiations and standardizing fee-for-service payments independent of any specific reform proposal, such as single-payer reform and public insurance buy-ins.To improve health care quality and decrease costs, both the public and private sectors continue to make substantial investments in the transformation of primary care. Central to these efforts is the patient-centered medical home model (PCMH) and the adoption and meaningful use of health information technology (IT). We used 2018 national family medicine data to provide a perspective on the implementation of PCMH and health IT elements in a variety of US physician practices. We found that 95 percent of family medicine-affiliated practices used electronic health records (EHRs) in 2018, but there was wide variation in whether those EHRs met meaningful-use criteria. Federally qualified health centers and military clinics were significantly more likely than other settings to have adopted PCMH elements. Adoption of PCMH elements was lowest among independently owned practices, which make up one-third of the primary care delivery system. Our findings suggest that achieving PCMH transformation across all types of practices will require a coordinated approach that aligns strong financial incentives with tailored technical assistance, an approach similar both to that used in federally qualified health centers over the past decade and to that used to drive EHR adoption a decade ago.We examined the trends in geographic variation in Medicare per capita spending and growth from 2007 to 2017 and found that the variation narrowed during this period. The difference in Medicare price- and risk-adjusted per capita spending between hospital referral regions (HRRs) in the top decile and those in the bottom decile decreased from $3,388 in 2007 to $2,916 in 2017-a reduction of $472, or 14 percent. The spending convergence occurred almost entirely between 2009 and 2014, during the early years of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The highest-spending HRRs in 2007 had the lowest annual growth rates from 2007 to 2017, and the lowest-spending HRRs in 2007 had the highest annual growth rates. We also found that a greater supply of postacute care providers, especially hospice providers, significantly predicted lower spending growth across HRRs after the implementation of the ACA.With the implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), millions of low-income adults gained health coverage. We examined how the ACA's expansion of Medicaid eligibility affected dental coverage and the use of oral health services among low-income adults, using data from the National Health Interview Survey from the period 2010-18. We found that the ACA increased rates of dental coverage by 18.9 percentage points in states that provide dental benefits through Medicaid. In terms of utilization, expansion states that provide dental benefits saw the greatest increase in people having a dental visit in the past year (7.2 percentage points). However, there was no significant change in the overall share of people who had a dental visit in the past year, although the expansion was associated with a significant increase in this metric among White adults. The expansion was also associated with a 1.4-percentage-point increase in complete teeth loss, which may be a marker of both poor oral health and the potential gaining of access to dental services (with subsequent tooth extractions).
