US Hospital Service Availability and New 340B Program Participation

This heterogeneous response should be considered when evaluating the eligibility criteria for th…

A System for Rapidly and Accurately Collecting Patients’ Race and Ethnicity
Objectives. We assessed the feasibility of collecting race/ethnicity data from patients using their own preferred racial/ethnic terms. Methods. The 424 patients described their race/ethnicity using their own categories, and we compared their descriptions with their responses to the questions (1) “Do you consider yourself Latino or Hispanic?” and (2) “Which category best describes your race?” (7 response options in our computer interview). We also…

Although subsequent federal legislation relaxed some original proposals, restored funds were limited and directed to specific types of hospitals. In addition, these Medicare policy changes came at a time when hospitals faced pri…
