Practice-Level Spending Variation for Radiation Treatment Episodes Among Older Adults With Cancer
In this cross-sectional study, there was substantial variation in practice-level radiation spending and number of fractions for older patients with cancer undergoing radiation treatment both within and across health care markets. This practice-level variation suggests that there may be opportunities for savings under population-based payment models
Care Experiences and Visit Use of Physician and Nonphysician Medicare Patients
This cross-sectional study compares care experiences and outpatient visit use between physician-patients and nonphysician-patients
Opportunities for Savings in Risk Arrangements for Oncologic Care
These results suggest there may be opportunities for ACOs and other risk-bearing organizations to select or drive referrals to lower-spending oncology practices in many local markets
Changes in Patient Experiences and Assessment of Gaming Among Large Clinician Practices in Precursors of the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System
In this study of US physician practices that participated in precursors of the MIPS, large practices were found to select measures on which they were already performing well for a pay-for-performance program, consistent with gaming. However, mandating public reporting was not associated with improved patient experiences. These findings support recommendations to end optional measures in the MIPS but also suggest that public reporting on mandated …
Preserving and Promoting Competition in the Post–Coronavirus Disease 2019 Healthcare Delivery System
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis has created unprecedented financial strain for health care organizations in the United States. During the early months of the pandemic, nearly all institutions had to reduce or suspend nonessential services to bolster health system capacity, preserve supplies, and minimize viral transmission. While many organizations are now resuming services as restrictions are eased, the volume of services is unlik…
Diffusion of Bevacizumab Across Oncology Practices
BACKGROUND: Technological advances can improve care and outcomes but are a primary driver of health care spending growth. Understanding diffusion and use of new oncology therapies is important, given substantial increases in prices and spending on such treatments. OBJECTIVES: Examine diffusion of bevacizumab, a novel (in 2004) and high-priced biologic cancer therapy, among US oncology practices during 2005-2012 and assess variation in use across …
