and coauthors argue that CMS hospital value-based programs should be
refined

to reduce health disparities and improve outcomes.
Standard Medical Deduction And SNAP Enrollment
In the August issue of Health Affairs, Jun Li and his colleagues at
Syracuse explorethe impact of the adoption of the standard medical
deduction (SMD)
<[link removed]>
- a policy designed to "decrease administrative barriers and improve
access to SNAP [Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program] benefits for
households with older adults and households with people with
disabilities."
Li and colleagues find that the adoption of SMD was associated with a
20.62 percent increase in the number of SMD-eligible households in SNAP.
They also find an increase in the share of SMD-eligible households
enrolled in SNAP.
These results suggest that the SMD is an "effective tool" to increase
SNAP enrollment.
