The prevalence and average magnitudes of stipends, even standardizing for service volume, have risen in both specialties. In 2021, stipends to emergency medicine and anesthesiology clinicians were paid by 81 percent and 57 percent of hospitals in California, respectively. The mean amount hospitals spent on stipends were $4.1 million for emergency medicine and $2.9 million for anesthesiology annually in 2021, among hospitals with any stipend.

Employing medical claims data from multiple MA plans, covering 30 percent of the entire MA market in 2019, our study found claim denial rates of 17 percent as a share of initial claim submissions. We also found that 57 percent of all claim denials were ultimately overturned. We calculated that denials resulted in a 7 percent net reduction in provider MA revenue, based on the dollar-weighted share of claim denials that were not overturned. However, the indirect impact of denials could be even greater than this direct effect that we measured. This article points to the important role that claim denials play in reducing MA spending and in driving outcome differences between MA and traditional Medicare.

Policy makers are considering aligning payments across sites of care, but concerns have arisen about the potential disproportionate impacts of \"site-neutral\" payments on vulnerable providers and beneficiaries. We assessed the effects of three policy options on types of hospitals and beneficiaries. We found annual Medicare payment reductions ranging from $212 million to $7.36 billion across these options; variation was due to the scopes of services and types of hospital outpatient departments included. Small and rural hospitals paid under Medicare's outpatient prospective payment system would absorb the smallest shares of proposed cuts across the options, commensurate with their outpatient volumes. The effects of the policy options varied little by hospital type; more comprehensive options would yield larger payment reductions from all hospital types. Site-neutral payments would not have substantially different effects on beneficiary groups defined by dual-eligibility status or age.</p>","PeriodicalId":519943,"journal":{"name":"Health affairs (Project Hope)","volume":"44 6","pages":"668-676"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144210674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With data on 146 oral-solid drugs experiencing first generic entry during the period 2016-23, we found evidence for both positive and negative effects of authorized generics on competition. On-invoice prices that pharmacies paid for new generics were 13-18 percent lower when an authorized generic was available. However, authorized generic launches, which were once common, declined markedly in more recent years, which may be partly explained by no-authorized-generic agreements in brand-generic patent litigation settlements.

Understanding and addressing factors associated with disenrollment are crucial for improving MA access and quality but are complicated by data issues, including the inability to adequately assess beneficiaries' perceptions of access and quality in MA. Using data from the 2015-20 restricted Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey with information on beneficiaries' perceptions of access, cost, and quality, plus MA contract star ratings and plan generosity data, we assessed factors associated with disenrolling from an MA plan. Enrollees' self-reported inability to access and receive high-quality care, more than perceived burdens of out-of-pocket costs, was associated with MA plan disenrollment, as was an objective measure of plan generosity. Difficulty accessing needed medical care was more strongly associated with MA-to-traditional Medicare exits than MA-to-MA plan switching. Dissatisfaction with access, cost, and quality was much more common for enrollees in poor health. These findings renew concerns about access to high-quality care for high-risk and other MA enrollees.</p>","PeriodicalId":519943,"journal":{"name":"Health affairs (Project Hope)","volume":"44 6","pages":"684-692"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144210672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
