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.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982, the Congress amended part B of title XI of the Social Security Act to establish the utilization and quality control peer review organization program as the successor to the professional standards review program. The program is intended to assure that Medicare beneficiaries received appropriate, high-quality medical care. The legislation designated two categories of PROs, called physician-sponsored and physician-access. Physician-sponsored organizations must be composed of a substantial number of the licensed physicians in the area served by the PRO who are representative of the practicing physicians in that area. Physician-access organizations are required to have available a sufficient number of physicians to assure adequate peer review of the services provided by the various medical specialties and subspecialties. The act required the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA), within the Department of Health and Human Services, to give physician-sponsored organizations priority in the award of PRO contracts.
