Download or read book Medicare Data for the Geographic Variation Public Use File: a Methodological Overview written by Centers for Centers for Medicare & Medicaid and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-16 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Federal policymakers and health researchers have long recognized that the amount and quality of the health care services that Medicare beneficiaries receive vary substantially across different regions of the United States. Much of that variation does not appear to be caused by differences in beneficiaries' health, and one widely-publicized estimate asserted that as much as 30 percent of Medicare expenditures may be unnecessary. The Office of Information Products and Data Analytics within the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has developed a public use file, the Geographic Variation Public Use File (GV PUF), to support further analysis of this important issue. This public use file is based primarily on information from CMS's Chronic Conditions Data Warehouse (CCW), which contains 100 percent of Medicare claims for beneficiaries who are enrolled in the fee-for-service (FFS) program as well as enrollment and eligibility data. The GV PUF covers calendar years 2008-2012 and has information on the demographics, spending, service utilization, and prevalence of certain chronic conditions for Medicare beneficiaries in different parts of the country. We also incorporated a variety of quality indicators that can be used to analyze relationships between Medicare utilization and quality of care. The December 2013 update to the GV PUF adds data for 2012 and incorporates several minor revisions to the CMS methodology. This update supersedes the data that we provided in May 2013. This overview is divided into the following eight sections: 1. Key data sources 2. Study population 3. Geographic variables 4. Disease variables 5. Standardization and risk adjustment of spending 6. Utilization measures 7. Quality measures 8. Changes from the May 2013 dataset to the December 2013 update

Download or read book Competition and the Cost of Medicare's Prescription Drug Program written by Anna Cook and published by . This book was released on 2014-09-03 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (the Medicare Modernization Act, or MMA) substantially expanded the federal Medicare program by creating the prescription drug benefit known as Part D. In FY 2013, Medicare Part D covered 39 million people. The federal government spent $59 billion net of premiums on Part D in that year; after accounting for certain payments from states under the program, the net federal cost was $50 billion, which represented 10% of net federal spending for Medicare. A combination of broader trends in the prescription drug market and lower-than-expected enrollment in Part D has contributed to much lower spending for the program than projected when the MMA became law in 2003. This report examines the federal budgetary cost and competitive design of Medicare Part D and compares Medicare Part D and Medicaid Fee for Service. Figures and tables. This is a print on demand report.

Download or read book Medicare Fraud, Progress Made, But More Action Needed to Address Medicare Fraud, Waste and Abuse written by U.s. Government Accountability Office and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-27 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " GAO has designated Medicare as a high-risk program, in part because the program's size and complexity make it vulnerable to fraud, waste, and abuse. In 2013, Medicare financed health care services for approximately 51 million individuals at a cost of about $604 billion. The deceptive nature of fraud makes its extent in the Medicare program difficult to measure in a reliable way, but it is clear that fraud contributes to Medicare's fiscal problems. More broadly, in fiscal year 2013, CMS estimated that improper payments-some of which may be fraudulent-were almost $50 billion. This statement focuses on the progress made and important steps to be taken by CMS and its program integrity contractors to reduce fraud in Medicare. These contractors perform functions such as screening and enrolling providers, detecting and investigating potential fraud, and identifying improper payments and vulnerabilities that could lead to payment errors. This statement is based on relevant GAO products and recommendations issued from 2004 through 2014 using a variety of methodologies. In April 2014, GAO also received updated information from CMS on its actions related to the laws, regulations, and guidance discussed in this statement. Additionally, GAO updated information by examining public documents and relevant policies"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Today Singapore ranks sixth in the world in healthcare outcomes well ahead of many developed countries, including the United States. The results are all the more significant as Singapore spends less on healthcare than any other high-income country, both as measured by fraction of the Gross Domestic Product spent on health and by costs per person. Singapore achieves these results at less than one-fourth the cost of healthcare in the United States and about half that of Western European countries. Government leaders, presidents and prime ministers, finance ministers and ministers of health, policymakers in congress and parliament, public health officials responsible for healthcare systems planning, finance and operations, as well as those working on healthcare issues in universities and think-tanks should know how this system works to achieve affordable excellence."--Publisher's website.

This book was released on 2017-09-01 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Census Bureau has reported that 56.7 million Americans had some type of disability in 2010, which represents 18.7 percent of the civilian noninstitutionalized population included in the 2010 Survey of Income and Program Participation. The U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA) provides disability benefits through the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program and the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. As of December 2015, approximately 11 million individuals were SSDI beneficiaries, and about 8 million were SSI beneficiaries. SSA currently considers assistive devices in the nonmedical and medical areas of its program guidelines. During determinations of substantial gainful activity and income eligibility for SSI benefits, the reasonable cost of items, devices, or services applicants need to enable them to work with their impairment is subtracted from eligible earnings, even if those items or services are used for activities of daily living in addition to work. In addition, SSA considers assistive devices in its medical disability determination process and assessment of work capacity. The Promise of Assistive Technology to Enhance Activity and Work Participation provides an analysis of selected assistive products and technologies, including wheeled and seated mobility devices, upper-extremity prostheses, and products and technologies selected by the committee that pertain to hearing and to communication and speech in adults.
