Preventive medical services encompass a wide range of interventions, including vaccinations that prevent diseases from occurring and screening tests designed to detect the presence of a disease before symptoms appear. Delivering preventive medical services results in costs for each person using the service. Vaccinations may cause some of those people to avoid the targeted disease, and screenings may allow some people to receive treatment earlier. Those people generally benefit from preventive medical services, but the net result can be decreases or increases in overall health care spending.
In this presentation, CBO’s Director provides an overview of the agency’s methods for estimating the budgetary effects of proposals to expand the use of preventive medical services.
Presentation by Heidi Golding, an analyst in CBO’s National Security Division, at the Southern Economic Association Annual Meeting.
In this presentation, CBO provides background information on the VA health care system and past spending and describes 10-year projections by CBO on VA health spending under three different scenarios. CBO finds that, under certain assumptions, future spending required to treat veterans may be substantially higher (in inflation-adjusted dollars) than recent appropriations.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

Assessing Effects on the Federal Budget of Policies to Promote Health and Prevent Disease

Assessing Effects on the Federal Budget of
Policies to Promote Health and Prevent Disease
Presentation to the Alliance for Health Reform
Linda Bilheimer
Assistant Director for Health, Retirement, and Long-Term Analysis
2. Assessing the Cost Impact of Health Interventions:
Key Concepts
■ Costs of Health Care
– Effects on per capita health care spending
■ Cost Effectiveness
– Return on investment
■ Budgetary Impact CBO’s Focus
– Effects on the federal government’s spending and revenues
CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE
3. Considerations in Estimating the Budgetary Impact of a
Proposed Health Policy
■ Baselines for Health Care Spending, Health Risks, and
Health Outcomes
■ Behavioral Responses to the Policy
■ Effects on Federal Spending
– Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security (OASI and DI), Supplemental
Security Income, other federal programs
■ Direct and Indirect (Health-related) Revenue Effects
■ Strength of the Evidence Base
CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE
4. Types of Health Promotion and Disease Prevention
Interventions
■ Clinical Preventive Services
■ Community-Based Health Promotion
■ Regulations to Limit Risky Behavior
■ Personal Financial Incentives to Modify Risky Behavior
■ Excise Taxes on Products with Health Risks
CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE
5. Goal of CBO’s Smoking Project
■ Assess the Full Budgetary Consequences of an Increase in the
Federal Excise Tax on Cigarettes
– Consider a 50-cent increase (indexed for inflation and growth in income)
– Focus primarily on changes in outlays and revenues resulting from changes
in health because of the policy
– Estimate effects for the 10-year “budget window” and the longer term
■ Caveats
– Policymakers’ decisions depend on other considerations besides the
budget
– Other policies to improve health would probably have different budgetary
effects
– Strength of evidence was a factor in selecting this case study of a
prevention policy

14. Main Conclusions
■ Changes in Federal Spending from Improved Health Would Be
Relatively Small
■ Federal Spending Would Be Lower in the First Decade but
Would Begin Rising in the Second or Third Decade
■ Better Health Would Raise Revenues on an Ongoing Basis
■ Combined, Those Health Effects Would Produce Very Small
Declines in the Deficit for About Five Decades
■ The Largest Budgetary Effects Would Come from Excise Tax
Receipts, Dominating Health Effects for at Least 75 Years
