Download or read book Rural Health in the United States written by Thomas C. Ricketts and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1999-10-07 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of the 61 million people who live in rural America have limited access to health care. Almost a quarter of the nation's population lives in rural places yet only an eighth of our doctors work there. Sponsored by the U.S. Office of Rural Health Policy, this unique book provides the facts about this imbalance and interprets them in the context of government programs that promote the placement of doctors and the operation of hospitals in rural places while paying them less to treat Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. The authors' comprehensive analysis of rural health care delivery shows where there are differences in rates of death and disease between rural areas using maps, graphs, and plain-English descriptions. The book provides a thorough look at health care in rural America, giving a snapshot of how doctors, hospitals, and technology are unevenly distributed outside the nation's metropolitan areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) contracted with RAND to perform an analysis of Medicare spending for special payments to rural providers and their implications for access and costs of care for rural Medicare beneficiaries. Our goal was to provide a comprehensive overview of utilization and spending for these services over the last decade. Information from these trend analyses will guide our examination of future Medicare rural payment policy options. The special payment provisions examined include (I) bonus payments to physicians in rural HPSAs; (2) reimbursements to rural health clinics and federally qualified health centers; (3) special payments for sole community hospitals, Medicare-dependent hospitals, rural referral centers, EACH/RPCH hospital networks, and Medical Assistance Facilities; and (4) capitation payments in rural counties, especially in underserved areas. This report presents the preliminary findings from our analysis of rural hospitals and inpatient utilization by rural Medicare beneficiaries. We examined the numbers and distributions of rural hospitals, looking specifically at hospitals that qualify for Medicare special payments. We also considered trends in inpatient utilization and spending for rural hospital services.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health care for the elderly American is among our nation's more pressing social issues. Our society wishes to ensure quality health care for all older people, but there is growing concern about our ability to maintain and improve quality in the face of efforts to contain health care costs. Medicare: A Strategy for Quality Assurance answers the U.S. Congress' call for the Institute of Medicine to design a strategic plan for assessing and assuring the quality of medical care for the elderly. This book presents a proposed strategic plan for improving quality assurance in the Medicare program, along with steps and timetables for implementing the plan by the year 2000 and the 10 recommendations for action by Congress. The book explores quality of careâ€"how it is defined, measured, and improvedâ€"and reviews different types of quality problems. Major issues that affect approaches to assessing and assuring quality are examined. Medicare: A Strategy for Quality Assurance will be immediately useful to a wide audience, including policymakers, health administrators, individual providers, specialists in issues of the older American, researchers, educators, and students.
