This book was released on 2008-06 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although private health plans were originally envisioned in the 1980s as a potential source of Medicare savings, such plans have generally increased program spending. In 2006, Medicare paid $59 billion to Medicare Advantage (MA) plans -- an estimated $7.1 billion more than Medicare would have spent if MA beneficiaries had received care in Medicare fee-for-service (FFS). MA plans receive a per member per month payment to provide services covered under Medicare FFS. For this testimony, the author examined MA plans¿: (1) projected allocation of rebates; (2) projected cost sharing; and (3) projected revenues and expenses. Charts and tables.

Download or read book Medicare Payment Policies to Physicians written by Katherine V. Bergen and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores Medicare spending for physician services that has climbed more than 9 percent per year, since 2000. Slowing the increase in Medicare outlays is important; in fact, it is becoming urgent. Medicare's rising costs, particularly when coupled with the projected growth in the number of beneficiaries, threaten the sustainability of the program. As discussed in this book, the Medicare Trustees' warn that even their unrealistically constrained estimate of Part B spending growth will still significantly out pace growth in the U.S. economy. Thus, Part B and total Medicare spending growth will continue to put pressure on the federal budget. However, that pressure puts other national priorities, such as homeland security and education, at risk. This book examines the Medicare law that specifies a formula for calculating the annual update in payments for physicians' services. The concern of many members regarding the impact of potential payment reductions on patients' access to services is looked at as well.
