Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

6.1K
The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

Regression Toward the Mean

6.8K
Regression toward the mean (“RTM”) is a phenomenon in which extremely high or low values—for example, and individual’s blood pressure at a particular moment—appear closer to a group’s average upon remeasuring. Although this statistical peculiarity is the result of random error and chance, it has been problematic across various medical, scientific, financial and psychological applications. In particular, RTM, if not taken into account, can interfere when...

Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System

3.9K
At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is...

The Effect of Aging on Tissues01:19

The Effect of Aging on Tissues

3.2K
Several body functions deteriorate with age. The external signs of aging are easily identifiable. For example, the skin becomes dry, less elastic, and thins out, forming wrinkles. The skin of the face begins to appear looser due to a decrease in the levels of elastic and collagen fibers in the connective tissue. Additionally, melanin production in the hair follicle decreases with age, resulting in gray hair. Moreover, the senses of sight and hearing decline, so glasses and hearing aids may...

Bone Disorders01:29

Bone Disorders

5.0K
Aging and its effect on bone remodeling is the most common cause of bone disorders. In young and healthy people, bone deposition and resorption happen at an equal rate to maintain optimal bone health.
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...

Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model

852
The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
For example, a patient with a chronic...

Summary

National health expenditure growth significantly slowed from 2009-2019 due to decreased utilization, lower price growth, and reduced home health use. These factors challenge previous healthcare spending forecasts.

Area of Science:

  • Health Economics
  • Healthcare Policy
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • National health expenditure growth decelerated between 2009 and 2019, falling to less than half its historical rate (1970-2008).
  • Previous forecasts of healthcare spending may have relied on outdated assumptions.
  • Understanding the drivers of this slowdown is crucial for future policy and financial planning.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify and quantify the factors contributing to the slowed national health expenditure growth from 2009 to 2019.
  • To analyze the impact of policies implemented during this period on healthcare spending.
  • To re-evaluate assumptions underlying past healthcare spending projections.

Main Methods:

  • Gathered actuarial projections for policy fiscal effects (2009-2019).
  • Adjusted Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) baseline projections by removing policy effects.
  • Decomposed residual spending differences by payer and service to pinpoint slowdown drivers.

Main Results:

  • Spending growth was below baseline projections due to four key trends.
  • Observed trends include: decreased utilization and substitution with lower-cost alternatives (hospitals, physicians, pharmaceuticals); slow price growth (private hospitals, physicians) and expanded nonphysician scope of practice; reduced home health utilization among elderly Medicaid beneficiaries; and slow administrative spending growth by private insurers.
  • These findings indicate a significant deviation from expected spending patterns.

Conclusions:

  • The identified trends provide a comprehensive explanation for the healthcare spending slowdown between 2009 and 2019.
  • The results necessitate a re-examination of the assumptions underpinning previous healthcare expenditure forecasts.
  • Policy implications may include reassessing cost-containment strategies and future budget predictions.
