Book excerpt: The 2010 health reform law (the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also referred to as the ACA) establishes a new Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB) with authority to issue recommendations to reduce the growth in Medicare spending, and provides for the Board's recommendations to be considered by Congress and implemented by the Administration on a fast-track basis. IPAB has been heralded by some as a cornerstone of efforts to slow the growth in health care spending, beginning with enforceable savings targets for Medicare to help limit the growth in program spending. Some, including the President's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, have advocated strengthening the role of IPAB. Yet others, including some in Congress, representatives of some aging organizations, and various health industry stakeholders, are opposed to IPAB and are pressing to block its implementation. This paper explains the genesis of IPAB, describes its structure, scope of authority, operational procedures, and the processes and timelines for considering, modifying, and implementing the Board's recommendations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB), a new executive-branch entity created by the Affordable Care Act of 2010, will have significant authority to curb rising Medicare spending if per beneficiary growth in that spending exceeds target growth rates. In a process that begins in 2013, recommendations made by the 15-member board will go to Congress for rapid consideration; Congress must adopt these or enact savings of similar size in Medicare. If Congress doesn't act within a specified timetable, the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) must implement the board's recommendations. The board is not allowed by law to recommend changes in premiums, benefits, eligibility, or taxes, or other changes that would result in "rationing" of care to Medicare beneficiaries. Proponents of IPAB say that the board is a vital mechanism for controlling Medicare spending, since Congress and the executive branch have historically been unwilling or unable to make many tough decisions about controlling rising Medicare outlays. Opponents, including an array of health-sector stakeholders, argue that the law cedes too much authority to an appointed panel and that its cuts could lead to dramatic reductions in the quantity or quality of health care services. On March 22, 2012, the House of Representatives passed a bill to repeal IPAB. The Senate is not expected to take up comparable legislation at present. This policy brief reviews why IPAB was created and the arguments pro and con.

Book excerpt: The IPAB is a group of 15 health experts (generally appointed by the president and approved by the Senate) who are required to recommend ways to hold down Medicare spending growth if that growth exceeds a certain limit. The IPAB has the authority to reduce payments to some Medicare providers (e.g., hospitals, doctors), but it cannot raise beneficiary premiums or reduce their benefits. Some proposals would change the law to give the IPAB more authority so it could also reduce benefits, while other proposals would further limit the amount of Medicare spending growth, which could require the IPAB to furtherreduce spending on doctors, hospitals and other health care providers. Some would eliminate the IPAB altogether.

Book excerpt: Created as part of the Affordable Care Act, the Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB) is charged with saving money for the Medicare system. To that end, IPAB was set apart from the political process, which has for decades proved itself unable to control Medicare costs. Yet no members have been appointed to IPAB as of fall 2017, and a broad coalition in Congress supports its elimination. This paper develops a theoretical framework to explain this phenomenon. At first glance, IPAB appears to employ a typical congressional strategy of delegation to solve the kind of collective action problem that frequently stymies legislative action. However, IPAB does not in fact solve that problem, because the same incentives that keep members of Congress from reforming Medicare also incentivize them not to appoint members to IPAB. Moreover, IPAB privileges liberal cost-control measures over conservative approaches, thus creating another incentive for Republicans to oppose it.

Book excerpt: This article examines the usual explanations for high U.S. health care costs, including medical technology, physician spending, patient choices and others. It then looks at the Affordable Care Act and other regulatory ideas to slow and better rationalize the high costs of the American system, describing and commenting on the good ideas in the ACA, including new organizational models, new centers to give medicine an evidence-based approach, and government powers such as the Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB) that aim to slow Medicare cost increases.
