Employment models for general practitioners in england
BACKGROUND: Recruitment and retention of General Practitioners (GPs) is a global challenge in primary care. Traditionally, GPs in the UK have worked as self-employed partners. However, policy changes in England have allowed for salaried GP positions within primary care partnerships. The effects of these different employment models on recruitment and retention remain unclear. OBJECTIVE: This study investigates the impact of partnership vs. salarie…
Are geographic variations in secondary hospital expenditure caused by supply and demand factors? Evidence from migration in England
Regional variations in hospital expenditure are a global concern because they may reflect unmet healthcare needs or inefficient resource use. Several recent studies have used internal migration to differentiate demand and supply causes of these regional variations. Most of these studies have focused on specific populations in competitive insurance settings and have not fully considered the timing of individual migrations. Using individual level d…
Adjusting the risk-adjustment
There is concern that basing healthcare budgets on risk adjustment estimates derived from historical utilisation data may reinforce patterns of unmet need. We propose a method to avoid this, based on a measure of how closely local health organisations align resources to the needs of their populations. We refer to this measure as the 'responsiveness of expenditure to need' and estimate it using national person-level data on use of acute hospital a…
Informal caregiving and the allocation of time
Informal care requires a considerable time investment from providers that inherently involves trade-offs against various uses of time. We examine what other uses of time are forgone when individuals provide informal care. We further consider how caregiving is linked to a range of rarely explored time use characteristics relating to multitasking, the fragmentation and the timing of activities. We use data from 5670 adults across 11003 diary days f…
