An analysis of Medicare national coverage decisions (NCDs) from 1999 through 2007 reveals that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) considers the available evidence as no better than fair for most of the technologies considered. Still, the CMS issues favorable decisions in 60 percent of the cases it takes on, although almost always with conditions placed on coverage. Since enactment of the 2003 Medicare Modernization Act, which legislated maximum review times for NCDs, the CMS has eliminated "long duration" decisions (more than one year) and has issued several "coverage with evidence development" decisions, which promise flexibility but also carry implementation challenges. 相似文献

Hearing loss (HL) occurs in one to three of 1,000 live births annually and, when left undetected, can result in developmental delays. To promote communication from birth, Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) programs support early identification of infants with HL. Without EHDI programs, the average age of identification for HL is age 1.5-3.0 years, which is past the start of the critical period for optimal language acquisition. In 2001, a total of 48 states/areas with EHDI tracking and surveillance systems (30 funded by CDC) reported the percentage of newborns screened for HL. This report summarizes the results of an analysis of surveillance data for 1999-2001, which indicate that more infants were screened for HL, received diagnostic audiologic evaluations, and were enrolled in early intervention services in 2001 than in 1999 and 2000. Continued development of EHDI surveillance systems should assist states/areas in providing needed services to children with HL. 相似文献

This article describes the implementation of the All Patient Refined Diagnosis Related Group (APR-DRG) inpatient payment system in a large regional commercial payer. The APR-DRG system replaced the Plan's current All-Payer DRG (AP-DRG) payment methodology on December 1, 2006, and is part of a strategic hospital payment redesign that will enable the Plan to control costs, increase pricing transparency for customers and providers, and reward hospital quality and efficiency. On the basis of modeled results using 2005 data, we found that the APR-DRG payment system using cost-based weights will do a better job of linking inpatient severity and use of resources to payments. The transition to the cost-based APR-DRG methodology with enhanced clinical specificity will also support measurement of hospital quality and efficiency in the Plan's performance improvement programs. 相似文献

This report presents prevalence estimates for key indicators of alcohol use, cigarette smoking, leisure-time physical activity, and body weight status among U.S. adults, using data from the 1999-2001 National Health Interview Surveys (NHIS). The NHIS is conducted annually by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Center for Health Statistics. Estimates are shown for several sociodemographic subgroups for both sexes combined and for men and women separately. Subgroups are compared in terms of prevalence of healthy and unhealthy behaviors. Methods Data for the U.S. civilian noninstitutionalized population were collected using computer-assisted personal interviews (CAPI). Questions on health behaviors were asked in the Sample Adult component of the basic core questionnaire. All data were self-reported. This report is based on a total of 96,501 completed interviews with sample adults aged 18 years and over, representing an overall sample adult response rate of 71.8% for the 3 years combined. Statistics were age adjusted to the 2000 U.S. standard population. Results Overall, 6 in 10 U.S. adults were current drinkers in 1999-2001; about 1 in 4 adults (23.1%) were lifetime abstainers. About 1 in 4 adults (23.1%) were current smokers and over one-half of adults (54.3%) had never smoked cigarettes. About 6 in 10 adults engaged in at least some leisure-time physical activity with about 3 in 10 regularly engaging in such activities. About 6 in 10 adults were overweight or obese (BMI > or = 25), with 4 in 10 adults having a healthy weight. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To obtain information relevant to development of prospective payment for Medicare rehabilitation facilities (RFs) and skilled nursing facilities (SNFs): compares service utilization, length of stay (LOS), case mix, and resource consumption for Medicare patients receiving postacute institutional rehabilitation care. DATA SOURCES/STUDY SETTING: Longitudinal patient-level and related facility-level data on Medicare hip fracture (n = 513) and stroke (n = 483) patients admitted in 1991-1994 to a sample of 27 RFs and 65 SNFs in urban areas in 17 states. STUDY DESIGN: For each condition, two-group RF-SNF comparisons were made. Regression analysis was used to adjust RF-SNF differences in resource consumption per stay for patient condition (case mix) and other factors, since random assignment was not possible. DATA COLLECTION/EXTRACTION METHODS: Providers at each facility were trained to collect patient case-mix and service utilization information. Secondary data also were obtained. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: RF patients had shorter LOS, fewer total nursing hours (but more skilled nursing hours), and more ancillary hours than SNF patients. After adjustment, ancillary resource consumption per stay remained substantially higher for RF than SNF patients, particularly for stroke. The adjusted nursing resource consumption differences were smaller than the ancillary differences and not statistically significant for hip fracture. Supplemental outcome findings suggested minimal differences for hip fracture patients but better outcomes for RF than SNF stroke patients. CONCLUSIONS: Much can be gained from an integrated approach to developing prospective payment for RFs and SNFs. In that context, consideration of condition-specific per-stay payment methods applicable to both settings appears warranted. 相似文献

Many key decision makers are looking to AESs solely for purposes of payment. This approach is unfortunate because many systems could be utilized for both payment and quality management purposes. It is important that the professional quality of care community be aggressive and document, through research and practical demonstration projects, how AESs can be used for both purposes. It is only in this manner that resource consumption can be both accurately analyzed and related to quality improvement. 相似文献

This important research builds on past projects in Australia and internationally that have sought to define and clarify competencies required to work in health promotion. The paper briefly explains the process undertaken in 2005 to update the Australian health promotion competencies as a collaboration of several leading health promotion agencies. The article reports findings from research undertaken in 2001 and 2005 and compares trends in perceptions of health promotion competencies across time. This dialogue among researchers, health promotion academics and practitioners can help to further the impact of competencies research on professional practice in health promotion globally. This project placed a priority on methodology that engaged the health promotion workforce in Australia. A two-stage process was employed including expert consultation with 39 senior health promotion professionals, followed by a modified Delphi process to engage 400 practitioners. Space was allowed for comment on the competencies including suggested word changes, and respondents were also invited to add additional competencies. The research involved a modified Delphi study where participants were invited to rate each competency as "essential", "desirable" or "not relevant", and to suggest changes to wording, as well as additions to the list. Responses were received from 400 practitioners and the results were presented and compared with the 2001 survey results. Results indicate a substantial shift in perceptions about health promotion practice in Australia during the initial years of the 21(st) century.The overall significant changes in perceptions indicate that by 2005 the Australian health promotion workforce had substantially moved away from an individual behaviour-dominated perception of health promotion practice. Increasing recognition was given to competencies that reflect environmental, economic and policy influences on health, and increased recognition that these processes are legitimate and essential components of the health promotion process. 相似文献

Medicare's national coverage decisions, 1999-2003: quality of evidence and review times 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In 1998 Medicare amended its procedures for making national coverage decisions for new technologies in an attempt to make the process more transparent and evidence based. We examined the quality of evidence for sixty-nine technologies reviewed by Medicare since then. Determinations by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) have generally been consistent with the strength of evidence. Good clinical evidence from rigorous studies is usually lacking for the technologies Medicare considers, although in most cases the CMS covers with conditions if there is at least fair evidence that benefits outweigh harms. Decisions referred to the external Medicare Coverage Advisory Committee (MCAC) have averaged eight months longer than non-MCAC decisions. 相似文献

This paper synthesizes results from peer-reviewed literature published from 1997 to mid-2001, on various dimensions of health maintenance organization (HMO) plan performance. Results from seventy-nine studies suggest that both types of plans provide roughly comparable quality of care, while HMOs lower use of hospital and other expensive resources somewhat. At the same time, HMO enrollees report worse results on many measures of access to care and lower levels of satisfaction, compared with non-HMO enrollees. Quality-of-care results in particular are heterogeneous, which suggests that quality is not uniform--that it varies widely among providers, plans (HMO and non-HMO), and geographic areas. 相似文献

Medicare expenditures of hospital outpatient department (HOPD) services are growing rapidly, prompting congressional interest in a prospective payment system. In this article, the authors identify frequently provided services and examine service volume and charges in the HOPD. Relatively few services drive Medicare HOPD spending, and volume is dominated by visits, imaging and laboratory tests, whereas surgery accounts for a large proportion of charges. Hospital-level variations in charges, costs, case mix, and outliers are also explored. There is substantial variation in charges and costs across hospital types. However, after case-mix adjustment, all hospital types have average costs within 6 percent of the national average. 相似文献

STUDY OBJECTIVE: This study examined whether high levels of racial segregation are associated with high county level intentional injury rates. DESIGN: Multiple linear regression was used to assess the association between county racial segregation (measured by the Gini coefficient) and intentional injury rates. Multicollinearity was assessed with Eigenvalues and condition indices. SETTING: State of Pennsylvania. PATIENTS: County level intentional injury rates for 1995 to 1997 were calculated from hospital discharge data. MAIN RESULTS: After controlling for other known county level risk factors, higher levels of racial segregation in a county were significantly related to higher intentional injury rates. Multicollinearity was not a problem. Population size and density, family stability and median income, together with the percentage male, unemployed, in poverty, divorced men, and high school graduates of the county were controlled. CONCLUSIONS: Racial segregation is an important factor in the rate of intentional injury in a community. These results may be important for municipal and state agencies when developing public policies to prevent violence and promote racial integration. 相似文献
