This book was released on 2018-04-02 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Social Security Administration (SSA) administers two programs that provide benefits based on disability: the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program and the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. This report analyzes health care utilizations as they relate to impairment severity and SSA's definition of disability. Health Care Utilization as a Proxy in Disability Determination identifies types of utilizations that might be good proxies for "listing-level" severity; that is, what represents an impairment, or combination of impairments, that are severe enough to prevent a person from doing any gainful activity, regardless of age, education, or work experience.

Book excerpt: In April 2006, Massachusetts passed legislation that aims to achieve near-universal health insurance coverage by expanding Medicaid and State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) eligibility, providing premium subsidies for certain individuals, and mandating the purchase of insurance for those who can afford it. To make private health insurance plans more affordable and accessible, it modifies state insurance laws (e.g., it merges the state's non-group and small group markets) and creates a public entity called the Connector to serve as a clearinghouse for the purchase of insurance by small employers and individuals who are not offered subsidized insurance by a large employer. To pay for the legislation, the state will redirect some existing Medicaid funds that are used to reimburse health care providers (primarily hospitals) for treating uninsured and other patients who generate uncompensated care costs. It will also obtain additional federal Medicaid and SCHIP dollars using new state general fund appropriations and revenues from employers that do not offer health insurance. Another significant source of funding, while not necessarily flowing through state coffers, is the mandate that requires individuals to purchase insurance or face financial penalties. Over time, the state expects to redirect additional funds from uncompensated care reimbursement to other uses (e.g., premium subsidies) as its uninsured rate declines. However, the legislation continues to provide significant support for hospitals and other providers. This report highlights major elements of the Massachusetts legislation and raises issues that Congress and other observers may consider as details of the state's health reform plan are worked out during implementation. It will not be updated.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2010 national health reform legislation -- the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) -- is modeled on Massachusetts' 2006 landmark reform effort. As in Massachusetts, national reform includes expansions of public programs, the creation of health insurance exchanges, subsidies for low- and moderate-income individuals, an individual mandate, and requirements for employers, among other provisions. Given the strong parallels between Massachusetts' health reform initiative and national health reform, the experiences in the Bay State provide insights into the potential effects of PPACA.
