Anesthesia Service Use and the Uptake of Screening Colonoscopies
BACKGROUND: The Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services recently defined "screening colonoscopy" to include separately furnished anesthesia services. OBJECTIVE: To examine the relationship between anesthesia service use and the uptake of screening colonoscopies. STUDY DESIGN: We correlated metropolitan statistical area (MSA) level anesthesia service use rates, derived from the 2008, 2010, and 2012 Medicare and MarketScan claims data, with the pre…

This study evaluates whether broader sample definitions combined with risk adjustment would allow for larger samples and…

METHODS: We used administrative data from 1997 for 799 hospitals in 11 states (covering 5,075,969 discharges of medical patients and 1,104,659 discharges of surgical patients) to examine the relation between the amount of care provided by nurses at the hospital and patients' outcom…
