Area of Science:

  • Health Economics
  • Public Health Policy
  • Social Security Administration

Background:

  • Medicare eligibility for disabled-worker beneficiaries is linked to 2 years of cash benefit receipt.
  • Extending Medicare coverage is proposed to incentivize return-to-work among beneficiaries.
  • Limited data exists on long-term Medicare costs for disabled individuals and their variations by demographic and health factors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe Medicare utilization and reimbursement for a cohort of disabled-worker beneficiaries.
  • To analyze factors associated with variations in Medicare costs among beneficiaries over time.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a unique linkage of Disability Insurance program data with Medicare utilization data.
  • Analyzed data for disabled-worker beneficiaries under age 62 first entitled to benefits in 1972.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Examined Medicare utilization and reimbursement amounts from 1974-1981.

    • Main Results:

    • Detailed tables illustrate factors associated with Medicare cost variations.
    • Identified demographic and health characteristics influencing Medicare spending.
    • Provided insights into long-term cost trends for disabled beneficiaries.

    Conclusions:

    • Understanding long-term Medicare costs is crucial for policy decisions regarding work incentives.
    • Variations in Medicare costs are linked to beneficiary characteristics.
    • Further research can inform strategies for supporting disabled beneficiaries' return to work.
