Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medicare beneficiaries are rapidly moving into managed care, as attempts to restrain the growth of this costly entitlement program progress. However, advocates for patients question whether the necessary information and structures are in place to enable Medicare consumers to select wisely among private-sector managed care options. Improving the Medicare Market examines how to give Medicare beneficiaries the same choice of health plan options enjoyed in the private sectorâ€"yet protect them as consumers and patients. This book recommends approaches to ensuring accountability and informed purchasing for Medicare beneficiaries in an environment of broader choice and managed careâ€"how the government should evaluate and approve plans, what role the traditional Medicare program should play, how to help to elderly understand their options, and many other practical matters. The committee discusses the information requirements of Medicare beneficiaries and explores in detail how best to respond to their special needs. And it examines the procedures that should be developed to provide the necessary protections for the elderly in a managed care system.

Book excerpt: Medicare is the federal health insurance program that offers coverage on equal terms to seniors and those with disabilities. The benefit package is uniform and premiums do not rise with age. As Marilyn Moon shows in this important work, however, the characteristics of older women make them extremely vulnerable to gaps in Medicare coverage and other features of the program. Because older women are more likely to suffer from multiple chronic illnesses than men, Medicare's failure to cover most outpatient prescription drugs affects them the most. Because women live longer on average than men and have lower incomes from pensions and other sources, they are less able to meet the out-of-pocket costs associated with Medicare or supplemental insurance. Moon evaluates Medicare reform proposals with an eye to whether they would alleviate or worsen the existing position of women in Medicare. She argues that making Medicare benefits more comprehensive and simplifying the program's rules would improve the health of older women and reduce their financial burdens.

Download or read book On Medicare But at Risk written by Cathy Schoen and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medicare provides essential health coverage for older and disabled adults, yet it does not limit out-of-pocket costs for covered benefits and excludes dental, hearing, and longer-term care. The resulting out-of-pocket costs can add up to a substantial share of income. Based on U.S. Census surveys, nearly a quarter of Medicare beneficiaries (11.5 million) were underinsured in 2013-14, meaning they spent a high share of their income on health care. Adding premiums to medical care expenses, we find that 16 percent of beneficiaries (8 million) spent 20 percent or more of their income on insurance plus care. At the state level, the proportion of beneficiaries underinsured ranged from 16 percent to 32 percent, while the proportion with a high total cost burden ranged from 11 percent to 26 percent. Low-income beneficiaries were most at risk. The findings underscore the need to assess beneficiary impacts of any proposal to redesign Medicare.

Download or read book Options written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Approximately 9 million low-income older and disabled people are covered by both Medicaid (a federal-state program that provides assistance to low-income people) and Medicare. These people are referred to as "dual eligibles." Because Medicare and Medicaid have different coverage rules and provider access, and dual eligibles are generally a less healthy population, there are higher costs and greater challenges in providing health care for this population. Proposals include requiring all low-income older people to enroll in a managed care plan, which means the care they receive would need to come from doctors and hospitals in the provider network for that managed care plan.
