Wednesday, April 19, 2023 | The Latest Research, Commentary, And News
From Health Affairs

Dear John,

On April 26, join Andrew Feher of Covered California for the next
Insider Journal Club event
<[link removed]>.
Feher will discuss the evidence and methods behind the paper,
"Personalized Letters And Emails Increased Marketplace Enrollment Among
Households Eligible For Zero-Premium Plans
<[link removed]>."


Ahead Of Print Release

In the United States, home and community-based services (HCBS) are the
primary approach to delivering long-term services and supports (LTSS).
Medicaid is the primary payer for LTSS and its expansion of HCBS
coverage has shifted LTSS out of institutions and into homes.

In a new article published ahead of print today
<[link removed]>,
Amanda Rae Kreider and Rachel Werner examine trends in the supply of
home care workers relative to Medicaid HCBS enrollment from 2008-2020.

Analyzing national data on home care workers and Medicaid HCBS
participants in the United States, the authors find that the home care
workforce grew by 76,000 workers per year between 2008-2013, but after
2013, growth slowed to 33,000 workers per year.

Conversely, Medicaid HCBS participation grew continuously from
2008-2020 and accelerated between 2013-2020.

The growth in HCBS participation increased overall demand for paid
home-based care without an increased workforce capacity, resulting in a
11.6 percent decline in the number of home care workers per 100 HCBS
participants between 2013 and 2019.
