Stopping the “Medicaid Churn”—Addressing Medicaid Coverage After the Covid-19 Public Health Emergency Ends
This JAMA Forum discusses Medicaid continuous enrollment and coverage under the American Rescue Plan Act and the Inflation Reduction Act and ways that the government can continue to decrease Medicaid churn (individuals cycling in and out of the program) after the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Ends
Partnership Program for long-term care insurance: The right model for addressing uncertainties with the future
Public policies that provide incentives for higher middle-income people to purchase private long-term care insurance (LTCI) have been proposed as a way to shield large numbers of middle-income people from the risk of needing costly long-term care. A proposal to promote purchases of private LTCI that has gained modest traction in the United States of America is the Partnership Program. The structure and public–private nature of the Partnership Pro…
Long‐term care: Common issues and unknowns
All industrialized countries are grappling with a common problem—how to provide assistance of various kinds to their rapidly aging populations. The problem for countries searching for models of efficient and high-quality long-term care (LTC) policies is that fewer than a dozen countries have government-organized, formal LTC policies. Relatively new surveys focused on the elderly populations of about 25 countries could become the basis for researc…

The Relative Importance of Worker, Firm, and Market Characteristics for Racial/Ethnic Disparities in Employer-Sponsored Health Insurance
The characteristics of an individual, the local labor market, and the firm where an individual is employed each may be associated with racial and ethnic disparities in employer-sponsored insurance (ESI). This study estimates two models to determine the relative effects of each of these three sets of characteristics on the likelihood a worker has a job with ESI. One model has two outcomes: the job comes with ESI or not. The other model has five po…

Markets for Individual Health Insurance: Can We Make Them Work with Incentives to Purchase Insurance
Simple income-based incentives to purchase health insurance (tax credits or deductions, or subsidies) are unlikely to succeed in significantly reducing the number of uninsured because income is not a good predictor of the extent to which individuals use medical service. Proposals to provide incentives to low-income people so they will purchase individual health insurance need to address the inherent tension between the interests of low-risk and h…

Home Health Care: To Regulate or Not
Look closely at your health insurance policy to find out if home health care services are covered. You will probably encounter language best described as vague: a benefit covering some percentage of reasonable cost after [the] deductible [has been paid], when medically necessary, as [an] alternative to hospitalization, up to a limit of perhaps 90 days per calendar year. Typically missing from this language are specific definitions of home health …
