This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through Canadian and international perspectives, Bending the Cost Curve in Health Care explores the management of growing health costs in an extraordinarily complex arena. The book moves beyond previous debates, agreeing that while efficiencies and better value for money may yet be found, more fundamental reforms to the management and delivery of health services are essential prerequisites to bending the cost curve in the long run. While there is considerable controversy over direction and details of change, there also remains the challenge of getting agreement on the values or principles that would guide the reshaping of the policies, the structures, and the regulatory environment of health care in Canada. Leading experts from around the world representing a range of disciplines and professional backgrounds come together to organize and define the problems faced by policy-makers. Case studies from the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, the Nordic countries, and industrialized Asian countries such as Taiwan offer useful reform experiences for provincial governments in Canada. Finally, common Canadian cost factors, such as pharmaceuticals and technology, and paying the health workforce, are explored. This book is the first volume in The Johnson-Shoyama Series on Public Policy, published by the University of Toronto Press in association with the Johnson-Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy, an interdisciplinary centre for research, teaching, and executive training with campuses at the Universities of Regina and Saskatchewan.

Book excerpt: Whatever money is saved through short-term restraint will be lost in panicked spending down the road. That's been the lesson of the past 20 years. The challenge is to bend the cost curve permanently while making the system perform better. What health value do we achieve for what we spend? Improving value for money will require governments, organizations and practitioners to leave their comfort zone of conventional practice.

Book excerpt: In this paper we analyze the impact of using a risk-adjusted comprehensive payment model, in support of In this paper we analyze the impact on total medical costs of using a risk-adjusted comprehensive payment model, to support a patient-centered medial home. We compare 2008-2010 insurance claims data on treatment and control practices from a network health plan in upstate New York. Practices in treatment group embraced a risk-based comprehensive payment model receiving risk-adjusted base payments and bonuses, compared with fee-for-service in the control group. We estimate the treatment effect using difference-in-differences, controlling for trend, payer type, plan type, and patient fixed effects. We weight to account for partial-year eligibility, use propensity weights to address differences in exogenous variability between control and treatment patients. Our estimation results suggest that medical spending in the treatment group appears to be 5.8 percent lower in year one and 8.7 percent lower in year two; the largest proportional two-year reduction in spending occurs in laboratory test use, 16.5 percent. We find that risk-based comprehensive payment model has notably dampened spending growth for the practices in the treatment group.

Book excerpt: What is Cost Curve In economics, a cost curve is a graph of the costs of production as a function of total quantity produced. In a free market economy, productively efficient firms optimize their production process by minimizing cost consistent with each possible level of production, and the result is a cost curve. Profit-maximizing firms use cost curves to decide output quantities. There are various types of cost curves, all related to each other, including total and average cost curves; marginal cost curves, which are equal to the differential of the total cost curves; and variable cost curves. Some are applicable to the short run, others to the long run. How you will benefit (I) Insights, and validations about the following topics: Chapter 1: Cost curve Chapter 2: Perfect competition Chapter 3: Profit maximization Chapter 4: Minimum efficient scale Chapter 5: Marginal cost Chapter 6: Production function Chapter 7: Average cost Chapter 8: Marginal product Chapter 9: Diminishing returns Chapter 10: Economic cost Chapter 11: Isoquant Chapter 12: Conditional factor demands Chapter 13: Total cost Chapter 14: Average variable cost Chapter 15: Long run and short run Chapter 16: Supply (economics) Chapter 17: Shutdown (economics) Chapter 18: Marginal product of labor Chapter 19: Long-run cost curve Chapter 20: Socially optimal firm size Chapter 21: Expansion path (II) Answering the public top questions about cost curve. (III) Real world examples for the usage of cost curve in many fields. Who this book is for Professionals, undergraduate and graduate students, enthusiasts, hobbyists, and those who want to go beyond basic knowledge or information for any kind of Cost Curve.

Book excerpt: Keeping people healthier is one of the most common sense and effective ways to reduce health care costs. Obesity is one of the biggest drivers of preventable chronic diseases and health care costs in the country. Two-thirds of Americans are either obese or overweight, and obesity is related to more than 30 illnesses, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease and some forms of cancer. The Trust for America's Health (TFAH) and Micro Health Simulations conducted an analysis to examine how much the United States could save in health care costs if obesity rates were reduced by five percent. The analysis found that the country could save $29.8 billion in five years, $158.1 billion in 10 years and $611.7 billion in 20 years.

Book excerpt: The need to prioritize efforts to improve the health of the Canadian population to promote the fiscal sustainability of Medicare dates back to at least the Lalonde report (1974), and was proposed in the Kirby commission (2002) and the Romanow commission (2002): M. Lalonde, A new perspective on the health of Canadians. [...] L. Kirby, The Health of Canadians - The Federal Role: Final Report on the State of the Health Care System in Canada (Ottawa: Senate, Standing Committee on Social Affairs, Science and Technology, 2002); R. J. Romanow, Building on Values: The Future of Health Care in Canada: Final Report of the Commission on the Future of Health Care in Canada (Ottawa: Queen's Printer, 2002). [...] The value of the health care costs avoided in the immediate term would be augmented by future health care costs avoided through the prevention of chronic diseases.7 Assessing the effectiveness of the program for preventing chronic diseases is the focus of ongoing work. [...] For program participants in the first year of the program, there are statistically significant reductions of 25 per cent in the number of hospital visits and of 17 per cent in the number of emergency department visits, relative to what we observe in the age- and sex-matched controls. [...] This trend in per participant costs of the program is attributed to changes in the content and delivery of the program reflecting the experience gained through eight years of operating combined with the results of internal program evaluation and external research on the program.

Download or read book Why Health Reform Will Bend the Cost Curve written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The health reform bills passed by the U.S. House of Representatives and under consideration in the Senate introduce a range of payment and delivery system changes designed to achieve a significant slowing of health care cost growth. Most assessments of health reform legislation have focused only on the federal budgetary impact. This study projects the effect of national reform on total national health expenditures and the insurance premiums that American families would likely pay. We estimate that the combination of provisions in the House and Senate bills would save $683 billion or more in national health spending over the 10-year period 2010 -- 2019 and lower premiums by nearly $2,000 per family. Moreover, the annual growth rate in national health expenditures could be slowed from 6.4 percent to 6.0 percent.

Book excerpt: Canadian provinces typically devote approximately 7.7 per cent of their GDP to health expenditures?a figure that some say could climb to around 10 per cent by 2030. However, we are not doing enough to prepare ourselves for the type of high acuity and cognitively impaired patients who will soon need long-term care, and which require different set of investments, capital stock, and health human resources than we currently deploy. Currently, expenditure growth on public health care appears to be slowing, though it is unclear whether this slowdown is the result of the provinces' success in sustainably bending the cost curve, or a result of short-term cost-cutting in response to reduced economic growth and federal health transfers. So where can we start? And what can be done to address this issue before it becomes a major crisis? Free Book for all Participants! Each registration includes a complimentary copy of Dr. Marchildon's book, "Bending the Cost Curve in Health Care: Canada's Provinces in International Perspective".
