Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Household Component of the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS-HC) is designed to produce estimates of the health care use, expenditures, sources of payment, and insurance coverage among the U.S. civilian noninstitutionalized population. While the MEPS-HC was designed primarily to ensure reliable estimates at the national and regional level for a large variety of population subgroups, the survey design permits estimation with reasonable precision for certain measures in many states. Many factors can influence health care expenses in a particular state, including the demographic, socioeconomic, and health status characteristics of the population. Further, the prevalence and types of health insurance coverage in a state can impact access to care, the level of expenditures, and the extent to which different sources finance health care services. This Statistical Brief presents variations from the national average in health care expenses for the 10 most populous states in 2006. The Brief examines selected measures for the U.S. population, including 1) the proportion of the population with selected types of expenses, 2) the average amount of expenses, and 3) the distribution of payments for health care expenses across various sources. The 10 states presented in this Brief together comprised just over half of the U.S. population in 2006 and accounted for a similar share of the nation's health care expenses. The states are displayed in the order of population size. Only those estimates with statistically significant differences from the national average using a multiple comparison procedure at the .05 significance level are noted in the text.

Book Synopsis Prescription Drug Expenditures in the 10 Largest States for Persons Under Age 65, 2006 by :
Download or read book Prescription Drug Expenditures in the 10 Largest States for Persons Under Age 65, 2006 written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prescription drugs account for a large portion of health care expenditures. In 2006, expenditures for prescription drugs among the entire U.S. civilian noninstitutionalized population accounted for 21.6 percent of total health care expenditures. In 1996, prescription drug expenditures accounted for only 11.9 percent of total health care expenditures. While prescription drug expenditures are a significant portion of total health care expenditures, the percentage of individuals that have them, as well as the average expenditure amount and the proportion paid by each source can vary considerably across states. Using data from the Household Component of the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS-HC), this Statistical Brief presents estimates of prescription drug expenditures for persons under age 65 in the 10 largest states for the year 2006 and compares these to the national average. The focus is on persons under age 65 to limit the effect of age differences between the state populations on their prescription drug use differences. Only those estimates with statistically significant differences from the national average using a multiple comparison procedure at the .05 level are noted in the text.

Book Synopsis The Concentration and Persistence in the Level of Health Expenditures Over Time by :
Download or read book The Concentration and Persistence in the Level of Health Expenditures Over Time written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estimates of the health care expenses of the U.S. civilian noninstitutionalized (community) population are critical to policymakers and others concerned with access to medical care and the cost and sources of payment for that care. In 2006, health care expenses among the U.S. community population totaled $1.034 trillion. Medical care expenses, however, are highly concentrated among a relatively small proportion of individuals in the community population. As previously reported in 1996, the top 1 percent of the U.S. population accounted for 28 percent of the total health care expenditures and the top 5 percent for more than half. More recent data have revealed that over time there has been some decrease in the extent of this concentration at the upper tail of the expenditure distribution (Yu and Ezzati-Rice, 2005). Using information from the Household Component of the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS-HC) for 2005 and 2006, this report provides detailed estimates of the persistence in the level of health care expenditures over time. Studies that examine the persistence of high levels of expenditures over time are essential to help discern the factors most likely to drive health care spending and the characteristics of the individuals who incur them. The MEPS-HC data are particularly well suited for measuring these trends in the concentration of expenditures over time. All differences between estimates discussed in the text are statistically significant at the 0.05 level unless otherwise noted.

Book excerpt: Estimates of the health care expenses of the U.S. civilian noninstitutionalized (community) population are critical to policymakers and others concerned with access to medical care and the cost and sources of payment for that care. In 2007, health care expenses among the U.S. community population totaled $1.13 trillion. Medical care expenses, however, are highly concentrated among a relatively small proportion of individuals in the community population.

Download or read book The Concentration in Health Expenditures Over a Two Year Time Interval, Estimates for the U.S. Population, 2005-2006 written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estimates of health care expenses for the U.S. civilian noninstitutionalized (community) population are critical to policymakers and others concerned with access to medical care and the cost and sources of payment for that care. Over the two year period 2005-2006, health care expenses among the U.S. community population totaled approximately $2.1 trillion. Medical care expenses, however, are highly concentrated among a relatively small proportion of individuals in the community population. In 2005, 1 percent of the population accounted for 23.3 percent of total health care expenditures, and in 2006, the top 1 percent accounted for 21.1 percent of the total expenditures. Using information from the Household Component of the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS-HC) for 2005 and 2006, this report provides detailed estimates of the concentration of health care expenditures over a two year time interval. Studies that examine the concentration of high levels of expenditures over extended time periods are essential to help discern the factors most likely to drive health care spending and the characteristics of the individuals who incur them. The MEPS-HC data are particularly well suited for measuring these trends in the concentration of expenditures over time. All differences between estimates discussed in the text are statistically significant at the 0.05 level unless otherwise noted.

Download or read book Trends in Health Care Expenditures for Children Under Age 18 written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Statistical Brief compares summary statistics on health care expenditures and expenditure distributions by type of service and source of payment for children under age 18 in 2006 relative to children in 1996. The estimates are derived from data collected in the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey Household (MEPS-HC) and Medical Provider Components (MEPS-MPC) on the U.S. civilian noninstitutionalized population. Health care expenses in MEPS represent payments to physicians, hospitals, and other health care providers for services reported by respondents to the MEPS-HC. Estimates for 1996 were adjusted to 2006 dollars based on the GDP Price Index to remove the impact of medical price inflation between 1996 and 2006 on comparisons (http://www.meps.ahrq.gov/mepsweb/about_meps/Price_Index.shtml). All differences between estimates noted in the text are statistically significant at the 0.05 level or better.

Book Synopsis The Healthcare Imperative by : Institute of Medicine
Download or read book The Healthcare Imperative written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-01-17 with total page 852 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States has the highest per capita spending on health care of any industrialized nation but continually lags behind other nations in health care outcomes including life expectancy and infant mortality. National health expenditures are projected to exceed $2.5 trillion in 2009. Given healthcare's direct impact on the economy, there is a critical need to control health care spending. According to The Health Imperative: Lowering Costs and Improving Outcomes, the costs of health care have strained the federal budget, and negatively affected state governments, the private sector and individuals. Healthcare expenditures have restricted the ability of state and local governments to fund other priorities and have contributed to slowing growth in wages and jobs in the private sector. Moreover, the number of uninsured has risen from 45.7 million in 2007 to 46.3 million in 2008. The Health Imperative: Lowering Costs and Improving Outcomes identifies a number of factors driving expenditure growth including scientific uncertainty, perverse economic and practice incentives, system fragmentation, lack of patient involvement, and under-investment in population health. Experts discussed key levers for catalyzing transformation of the delivery system. A few included streamlined health insurance regulation, administrative simplification and clarification and quality and consistency in treatment. The book is an excellent guide for policymakers at all levels of government, as well as private sector healthcare workers.
Book Synopsis Nationwide Frequency and Costs of Potentially Preventable Hospitalizations, 2006 by :
Download or read book Nationwide Frequency and Costs of Potentially Preventable Hospitalizations, 2006 written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hospital care represents the largest component of overall health care expenditures. Some hospitalizations can be potentially prevented with timely and effective ambulatory care. High admission rates for these potentially preventable conditions may indicate a need for improvements in access to ambulatory care and in the quality of care provided, as well as in patient adoption of healthy lifestyles and active self-management of chronic conditions. Thus, reducing the frequency of potentially preventable hospitalizations would be an effective strategy for lowering costs while improving quality of care and patient outcomes. This Statistical Brief presents national data from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP) on rates and total costs of potentially preventable hospitalizations. Distribution of the total costs by payer is also examined. Lastly, comparisons of potentially preventable hospitalization rates by median income level of patient's ZIP Code are presented. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ)'s Prevention Quality Indicators (PQIs) are used to identify hospitalizations for select chronic and acute conditions in adults and children for 2006. All differences between estimates noted in the text are statistically significant at the 0.05 level or better.
