Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interim report reviews the implementation of the Department of Defense (DOD) Medicare Subvention Demonstration. GAO found that the demonstration sites were successful in operating Medicare managed care plans. Officials put substantial effort into meeting Medicare managed care requirements and, according to Health Care Financing Administration reviewers, were generally as successful as other new Medicare managed care plans in this regard. Most sites reached the enrollment limits they had established for retirees already covered by Medicare. DOD officials indicated that the demonstration's effect was positive. Enrollees received a broader range of services from DOD than in the past, when they got care only when space was available in DOD facilities. Officials also noted that providing more comprehensive care to seniors helped sharpen the skills of military clinical staff, which contributed to their readiness for supporting combat or other military missions. Some challenges encountered in the demonstration reflect larger DOD managed care issues and may have implications for DOD managed care generally. Although access to care was generally good, the demonstration experienced some problems in maintaining adequate clinical staff.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 authorized a three-year test--called Medicare subvention--that allows military retirees, their dependents, and survivors to enroll in a new Department of Defense (DOD) health maintenance organization (HMO). The goal is to offer accessible, quality care while keeping costs down for DOD and Medicare. Care for these beneficiaries at military treatment facilities is now provided on a space-available basis that lacks the continuity so important to many older retirees. Under the Medicare subvention demonstration, Medicare will pay DOD for health care provided to retirees at six sites. DOD will provide enrollees with the full range of Medicare-covered services as well as some additional ones. In principle, beneficiaries, DOD, and Medicare could all gain under subvention. GAO is required to report annually on the demonstration's effect on Medicare costs. The demonstration was not fully implemented at all sites until January 1999, so there is not yet enough evidence to assess subvention's cost to Medicare. Consequently, this report focuses on the ability of DOD's data systems to (1) determine DOD's historical "level of effort" and Medicare payments and (2) manage the demonstration and assess its costs effects.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the Congress has sought to improve health care benefits for Medicare-eligible military retirees. In the past, these retirees 1 were not eligible for the Department of Defense's (DOD) TRICARE health care program and were able to get care from military treatment facilities (MTF) only when space was available. By law, DOD was not responsible for providing a full range of services to these Medicare-eligible retirees and could not receive payments from Medicare for those services that it provided them. The DOD Medicare subvention demonstration, 2 established by the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 (BBA), 3 was designed to test an alternate way of providing health care coverage to retirees through DOD.
