Do Hospital Characteristics Predict Racial-and-Ethnic Disparities in Patient Experience? National Results From the HCAHPS Survey
OBJECTIVE: Assess whether hospital characteristics associated with better patient experiences overall are also associated with smaller racial-and-ethnic disparities in inpatient experience. BACKGROUND: Hospitals that are smaller, non-profit, and serve high proportions of White patients tend to be high-performing overall, but it is not known whether these hospitals also have smaller racial-and-ethnic disparities in care. RESEARCH DESIGN: We used l…
Rates of Disenrollment From Medicare Advantage Plans Are Higher for Racial/Ethnic Minority Beneficiaries
BACKGROUND: Each year, about 10% of Medicare Advantage (MA) enrollees voluntarily switch to another MA contract, while another 2% voluntarily switch from MA to fee-for-service Medicare. Voluntary disenrollment from MA plans is related to beneficiaries' negative experiences with their plan, disrupts the continuity of care, and conflicts with goals to reduce Medicare costs. Little is known about racial/ethnic disparities in voluntary disenrollment …
Explaining the Relationship Between Minority Group Status and Health Disparities
Purpose: There is growing concern that value-based payment for health care may disadvantage health care organizations that serve populations with social risk. In the broader investigation of social risk factors, including income, education, neighborhood deprivation, and other risks, the focus on race and ethnicity as a risk factor for disparities in health and health care has diminished. Understanding the independent contribution of minority grou…
Using Ancillary Sociodemographic Data to Identify Sexual Minority Adults Among Those Responding “Something Else” or “Don’t Know” to Sexual Orientation Questions
BACKGROUND: General population surveys are increasingly offering broader response options for questions on sexual orientation-for example, not only gay or lesbian, but also "something else" (SE) and "don't know" (DK). However, these additional response options are potentially confusing for those who may not know what the terms mean. Researchers studying sexual orientation-based disparities face difficult methodological trade-offs regarding how be…
Self-Reported Delays in Receipt of Health Care among Women with Diabetes and Cardiovascular Conditions
Association of Health Plans' Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (Hedis) Performance With Outcomes of Enrollees With Diabetes
BACKGROUND: Few quality of care evaluations examine the relationship between clinical processes and patient outcomes. OBJECTIVE: To determine the association between health plan performance on Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) clinical processes and intermediate outcome measures and Health Outcomes Survey (HOS) self-reported physical and mental health scores among Medicare plan enrollees with diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN: Sec…
Predictors of Voluntary Disenrollment From Medicare Managed Care
BACKGROUND: Prior research on selection bias in Medicare plans has demonstrated favorable enrollment of healthier beneficiaries, resulting in plan overpayment. However, total selection bias depends not only on who enrolls, but also on who disenrolls. Few studies examine selectivity in disenrollment; it is unclear how those who leave plans differ from those who remain. OBJECTIVE: The examination of health status and plan characteristics as potenti…
Vulnerability and the Patient–Practitioner Relationship
Objectives. We examined whether patients’ perceptions of their relationships with primary care practitioners (PCPs) vary by vulnerability status and assessed the extent to which gatekeeping arrangements and primary care performance moderate potential disparities. Methods: We used the nationally representative 1996–1997 Community Tracking Study Household Survey as our data source. Results. Whites reported better patient–practitioner relationships …
