Federalism and Health Policy
Author: Alan Weil
Publisher: The Urban Insitute
ISBN: 9780877667162
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
The balance between state and federal health care financing for low-income people has been a matter of considerable debate for the last 40 years. Some argue for a greater federal role, others for more devolution of responsibility to the states. Medicaid, the backbone of the system, has been plagued by an array of problems that have made it unpopular and difficult to use to extend health care coverage. In recent years, waivers have given the states the flexibility to change many features of their Medicaid programs; moreover, the states have considerable flexibility to in establishing State Children's Health Insurance Programs. This book examines the record on the changing health safety net. How well have states done in providing acute and long-term care services to low-income populations? How have they responded to financial incentives and federal regulatory requirements? How innovative have they been? Contributing authors include Donald J. Boyd, Randall R. Bovbjerg, Teresa A. Coughlin, Ian Hill, Michael Housman, Robert E. Hurley, Marilyn Moon, Mary Beth Pohl, Jane Tilly, and Stephen Zuckerman.

The Economics of Medicaid
Author: Jason J. Fichtner
Publisher: Mercatus Center at George Mason University
ISBN: 0989219364
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Medicaid, originally considered an afterthought to Medicare, is today the largest health insurance provider in the United States. Under the Affordable Care Act, the Congressional Budget Office projects Medicaid enrollment to increase nearly 30 percent by 2024 and federal spending on the program to double over the next decade. For the states, Medicaid is already the largest single budget item, and its rapid growth threatens to further crowd out other spending priorities. In this collection of essays published by the Mercatus Center at George Mason University, nine experts discuss the escalating costs and consequences of a program that provides second-class health care at first-class costs. The authors begin with an explanation of Medicaid’s complex state-federal funding structure. Next, they examine how the system’s conflicting incentives discourage both cost savings and efficient care. The final chapters address the pros and cons of the most mainstream Medicaid reform proposals and offer alternative solutions. This book offers a timely assessment of how Medicaid works, its most problematic components, and how—or if—its current structure can be adequately reformed to provide quality care for those in need at sustainable costs. Contributors include: Joseph Antos, American Enterprise Institute Charles Blahous, Mercatus Center at George Mason University Darcy Nikol Bryan, MD, practicing physician James C. Capretta, Ethics and Public Policy Center Robert F. Graboyes, Mercatus Center at George Mason University June O’Neill, Baruch College, CUNY Nina Owcharenko, Heritage Foundation Thomas Miller, American Enterprise Institute
