Dear John,
Join Health Affairs on May 17 for our next virtual Journal Club, which
will focus on a May article, "In Medicaid Managed Care Networks, Care Is
Highly Concentrated Among A Small Percentage Of Providers
."
Author Avital Ludomirsky will discuss the methods and findings of this
paper. Register now .
Home-Based Care Reimagined
As part of our Age-Friendly Health
series, Christine Ritchie
and Bruce Leff describe what a care delivery system for elders
focused on the home and community would look like, and they present
evidence to support its importance.
The authors define eight principles that should guide the development of
care delivery systems for elders, including person-centered care,
respect for and attention to caregivers, and competent clinicians and
providers.
Ritchie and Leff also discuss what it would take to create "a
distributed health care delivery ecosystem," noting that in the current
facility-based system, "...although convenient for clinicians, the
facilities have turned out to be suboptimal for many patients."
The authors conclude that with payment and regulatory enhancements;
targeting of high-need populations; attention to coordinated and
stream-lined logistics, technology, and data; and full engagement of
social and behavioral services, health care will gradually shift to the
home.

Today in Health Affairs Forefront, Alexander Dworkowitz writes about
provider obligations for patient portals
under the 21st Century Cures Act and the information blocking rule
issued by the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information
Technology.
Dworkowitz writes that hospitals and other providers throughout the
country have significantly changed the information available to patients
in their portals as a direct result of the information blocking rule.
He indicates that health care providers' efforts to give their
patients better access to their information will be subject to scrutiny
for years to come.
