Tuesday, April 5, 2022 | The Latest Research, Commentary, And News From
Health Affairs
Dear John,
Today President Joe Biden delivered remarks on the Affordable Care Act
and the Family Glitch rule. For background, read this 2014 explainer
from Tricia
Brooks. In the proposed rule, the White House cites a 2021 Forefront
article from Katie Keith on fixing the family glitch
.
Revisit the March 2020 issue
of Health Affairs for a
comprehensive review of what the law has accomplished and what remains
to be done as the ACA turns 12, and join us on April 14
for a
discussion about its future.
Child Vaccination Laws
Every state and the District of Columbia require children from birth
through age five to be vaccinated against certain communicable diseases
in order to receive child care.
In the April 2022 issue of Health Affairs, Alexandra Bhatti and
coauthors systematically examine vaccination laws across all fifty
states and Washington, D.C.
They find variability in the stringency and mechanics of these policies,
including that 90 percent of jurisdictions permit provisional enrollment
for children not up to date with required vaccines and 90 percent allow
for nonmedical exemptions.
This study provides a critical benchmark for child care vaccination laws
in the US and a baseline for researchers to measure the impact of child
care vaccination laws on vaccination coverage rates at a more granular
level and over time.
Elsewhere At Health Affairs
Today in Health Affairs Forefront, Liza Vertinsky argues that biomedical
public-private partnerships
need to be designed and governed in ways that better align private
incentives with the public interest.
Katie Keith discusses the new analyses and guidance for states and
insurers
that the Centers for Medicare And Medicaid Services issued in late
March, including pass-through funding amounts for states with an
approved Section 1332 waiver, form filing instructions, and key dates
for 2022.
Rachel Berthiaume and coauthors discuss how health care providers are
transforming clinical approaches
into community-centered public health outcomes by applying
equity-centered leadership skills.
