  • Employment of Independently Billing Advanced Practice Clinicians

    Open AccessParth K Modi, Max J Hyman et al.ARTICLEJAMA Health Forum2025

    This cross-sectional study uses Medicare Data on Provider Practice and Specialty files from 2008 to 2021 to evaluate changes in rates of employment of advanced practice clinicians

  • Understanding Treatment Disconnect and Mortality Trends in Renal Cell Carcinoma Using Tumor Registry Data

    Marc C Smaldone, Brian Egleston et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2017Referencias: 21

    BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The paradoxical rise in overall and cancer-specific mortality despite increased detection and treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is termed "treatment disconnect." We reassess this phenomenon by evaluating impact of missing data and rising incidence on mortality trends. RESEARCH DESIGN, SUBJECTS, AND MEASURES: Using Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results data, we identified patients with RCC diagnosis from 1973…

  • Validation of a Medicare Claims-based Algorithm for Identifying Freestanding Ambulatory Surgery Centers

    John M Hollingsworth, Rodney L Dunn et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2016Referencias: 12

    BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: With visits to ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) on the rise, accountability in the care provided by these facilities and the surgeons who staff them is required. This requires the ability to measure and monitor ASC-based care over time. For this reason, we developed and validated a claims-based algorithm to identify ASCs. RESEARCH DESIGN: Using a 20% sample of Medicare claims (2002-2008), we developed 3 ASC definitions.…

  • Ambulatory Surgery Centers and Outpatient Procedure Use Among Medicare Beneficiaries

    Brent K Hollenbeck, Rodney L Dunn et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2014Referencias: 13

    BACKGROUND: There has been a strong push to move outpatient surgery from hospital settings to ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs). Despite the efficiency advantages of ASCs, many are concerned that these facilities could increase overall utilization. OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of ASC opening on rates of outpatient surgery. DESIGN: This was a retrospective cohort study of Medicare beneficiaries undergoing outpatient surgery between 2001 and 201…

  • Identifying Better Practices for Early-stage Bladder Cancer

    John M Hollingsworth, Yun S Zhang et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2011Referencias: 14

    BACKGROUND: Practice guidelines for nonmuscle invasive (ie, early stage) bladder cancer are ambiguous, resulting in substantial practice variation without a clear patient benefit. OBJECTIVES: To profile urologist practice styles and empirically derive better patterns of use for common bladder cancer services. RESEARCH DESIGN: Retrospective cohort. SUBJECTS: Elderly patients diagnosed with early-stage bladder cancer between January 1, 1992 and Dec…

  • Physician Ownership of Ambulatory Surgery Centers and Practice Patterns for Urological Surgery

    Seth A Strope, Stephanie Daignault et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2009Referencias: 25

    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between ownership and use of ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs). METHODS: From 1998 through 2002, ambulatory surgical discharges for procedures within the genitourinary system were abstracted from the Florida State Ambulatory Surgery Database. State-wide utilization rates for ambulatory surgery were calculated by physician-level ownership (using an empirically-derived, externally-validated method) and finan…

  • Development and validation of the convalescence and recovery evaluation (Care) for measuring quality of life after surgery

  • Hospital Characteristics and Use of Innovative Surgical Therapies Among Patients With Kidney Cancer

    David C Miller, Stephanie Daignault et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2008Referencias: 35

    BACKGROUND: Despite their potential benefits to patients, the adoption of partial nephrectomy and laparoscopic kidney cancer surgery has been both gradual and concentrated in select hospitals. OBJECTIVE: We assessed the degree to which adjusting for hospital structural characteristics modifies the association between hospital nephrectomy volume and patient receipt of partial nephrectomy and/or laparoscopic kidney cancer surgery. RESEARCH DESIGN A…

  • Understanding Variation in the Adoption of a New Technology in Surgery

    John M Hollingsworth, Sarah L Krein et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2008Referencias: 34

    BACKGROUND: Despite data supporting the superiority of laparoscopy over conventional surgery for donor nephrectomy, prior work reveals that this technology's adoption has been slow. However, the underlying cause for its gradual adoption remains unclear. For this reason, a multilevel analysis was conducted using a population-based cohort to evaluate the amount of variation in laparoscopic donor nephrectomy use attributable to the individual, provi…
