Direct Primary Care: An Alternative to Traditional Insurance - Jay Keese American Academy of Family Physicians
This document summarizes direct primary care (DPC), which is a model of primary care delivery where patients pay providers a monthly or periodic fee in exchange for primary care services, bypassing third-party insurance. Key points include that over 700 DPC practices operate in 48 states, with median monthly fees around $70. Studies show DPC can reduce health costs by up to 20% and lower utilization of expensive services like hospital admissions. 23 states have passed laws defining DPC outside insurance regulation. Federal policy issues include clarifying DPC in tax code and piloting DPC in Medicare.Week 2 Affordable Care Act
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is comprehensive healthcare reform legislation that was signed into law in 2010. It expanded access to health insurance coverage in three primary ways: by expanding Medicaid eligibility; creating health insurance exchanges; and preventing insurance companies from denying coverage due to pre-existing conditions. The ACA was intended to provide more affordable health insurance options for millions of uninsured Americans and supports innovative healthcare delivery methods. It established different metal-tiered health insurance plan options that vary in out-of-pocket costs and premiums.

Direct Primary Care: An Alternative to Traditional Insurance - Phil EskewAmerican Academy of Family Physicians
This document summarizes information about direct primary care (DPC) laws and policies at the state level. It discusses why states should pass DPC laws that clarify DPC agreements are "not insurance," which can lower legal costs and promote consistent practice design. Good DPC laws include these protections while avoiding excessive regulation. Wyoming's DPC law is highlighted as an example that clearly defines DPC agreements as not insurance. Updates are provided on the growth of DPC locations from 2014 to 2017 and key DPC policy "wins" and "losses" in various states in 2017. The document concludes with strategies and ongoing efforts to advance DPC-friendly policies.NCET Biz Cafe | Valerie Clark, Conundrum of US Healthcare | Sept 2017

Case Analysis of the Affordable Care Act power point
The document discusses the history and implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in the United States. It passed in 2010 with the goals of increasing access to healthcare and reducing costs. While it helped reduce the uninsured rate, there have been ongoing issues with the healthcare exchanges and limited provider networks. The execution of the ACA has contributed to a shortage of primary care doctors due to compensation rates and impacted jobs and small businesses with its coverage mandates. Educating new doctors and nurses will take years to address the increased demand caused by the ACA.

National council comments medicare part b payment adjustments
The National Council for Community Behavioral Healthcare submitted comments in response to CMS's proposed rule to rebase Medicare payments. The Council is concerned that the proposed reductions would disproportionately impact mental health providers, with licensed clinical social workers and psychologists facing a 5% cut and psychiatrists a 3% cut. This could lead more mental health providers to opt out of Medicare and reduce beneficiaries' access to crucial mental health services. The Council urges CMS to reevaluate the rebasing approach so it does not undermine mental health parity or access to care.
Us Healthcare Presentation
The document provides an overview of the complex U.S. healthcare system, including its decentralized market-based structure compared to other countries' centralized systems. It discusses key players like doctors, hospitals, insurers, and governments. It also covers major public programs like Medicare and Medicaid, as well as private insurance concepts like health plans, coding, and reimbursement structures including capitation and fee-for-service.
Health system in USA
The document discusses the different types of health insurance in the United States. The majority (49%) have private insurance through their employer, while 13% have Medicare, 18% have Medicaid, and 11% are uninsured. Medicare covers those over 65 and is run by the federal government, while Medicaid provides coverage for low-income families and is administered by each state. Private insurance through an employer is most common but may not cover all conditions, and individual plans are increasingly expensive, contributing to the number of uninsured.
Ltc General
This document discusses long term care insurance options for individuals. It defines long term care as services to help with personal care over an extended period for conditions like aging, illness or disability. Long term care can be received at home, in assisted living or nursing homes, which have average annual costs of $83,585 for a private nursing home room. Long term care insurance can help pay for care and preserve assets, providing benefits, tax advantages and financial protection as part of a plan.
Healthcare slide show
The document compares healthcare systems in several countries including Canada, France, Germany, the UK, and the US. Some key points of comparison are:
- Canada has a single-payer universal healthcare system funded through taxation. Each province administers its own plan.
- France has a hybrid public-private system where the government pays about 80% of costs and private insurance covers the rest.
- Germany has a social insurance model where citizens purchase insurance from nonprofit sickness funds based on income.
- The UK has a socialized system where the tax-funded National Health Service provides public coverage and options.
- The US has a mixed system with public options like Medicare/Medicaid and private insurance.
Ltc Womens
This document provides an overview of long-term care options for women, including the costs of care, potential ways to pay for care such as insurance or government programs, and the benefits of long-term care insurance.

Technology in the Kingdom, Society, and Your Life
John Dyer discusses the impact of technology on individuals and society. He notes that while technology can be used for good or bad, it also shapes our cognition, relationships, and values in ways we may not intend. Dyer argues we should critically examine the values embedded in technologies and how they move boundaries between work, leisure, and relationships. He suggests having a plan to adopt technology in a way that aligns with our values and in community with others, while also creating space and embracing limits to avoid being overwhelmed by constant interruptions.

Transparency has become even more important in the past year as we begin the health care reform discussion. There is not a signature event in Nashville to bring quality, marketing, transparency, and technology together.

The event will focus on how and why health systems and hospitals should focus on quality reporting as well as financial reporting. At the end of the day, all of this puts additional strains on the information systems and resources deployed by most health systems and hospitals. How will they cope? What is the next step?

Healthcare Reform And You
Martin Trussell presented on upcoming healthcare reform and how it may affect different groups. He discussed that reform is now a priority due to the economic crisis, unsustainable growth of Medicare and Medicaid, and consensus among stakeholders. The proposed reforms include expanding coverage to all Americans, eliminating pre-existing condition restrictions, implementing an individual mandate, emphasizing prevention, and finding $2 trillion in savings over 10 years. The reforms would impact employers, carriers, brokers, individuals, providers, and other healthcare industry roles in various ways.

For individuals, there will be a penalty for not obtaining coverage starting in 2014. Employers with over 50 employees will face a penalty starting in 2015 if they do not provide affordable coverage. The healthcare industry will see both costs and revenues impacted, with insurers expected to gain many new customers but also facing new regulations, and hospitals losing some funding but gaining new insured patients. Overall the impacts are viewed as manageable for most employers and positive for the healthcare sector in the long run.

The document summarizes a breakfast forum discussing how changes to US healthcare policy will affect businesses. Experts Don Gilbert, Jim Springfield, and Dr. Kelly Larkin discussed the impact of repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act. If no changes are made, the national healthcare system could deteriorate as healthier individuals opt out, leaving a sicker risk pool. Attorneys note businesses will likely see increased healthcare costs passed down from federal government cuts to states to providers. While the future is uncertain, most agree Congress will pass a bill this year reducing some regulations.

The document discusses rising healthcare costs and declining quality in the US healthcare system. It argues that the current system rewards more treatment and increased capacity, rather than value and outcomes. It proposes moving towards accountable care organizations that are accountable for overall costs and outcomes, comprehensive performance measurement, and payment reform to reward high-value care rather than volume of services. Massachusetts could lead the way by fostering the development of accountable care organizations.
