What's New At Health Affairs
The June 2022 issue of Health Affairs covers a range of topics including
drug pricing, hospice care, telehealth, and more.
On the topic of health care costs, William Feldman and coauthors analyze
how manufacturers limit generic competition
through the use of patents and other exclusivities granted to inhalers
approved by the Food and Drug Administration.
Elsewhere in the issue, authors examine care delivery.
Juan Andino and coauthors assess trends in interstate telehealth uptake
by Medicare beneficiaries during 2017-20 in light of COVID-19-related
regulatory changes.
Using nationally representative data from 2011-17, Krista Harrison and
coauthors determine that the proxies of hospice-enrolled people living
with dementia are more likely to rate last-month-of-life care as
excellent
compared with the proxies of people living with dementia who did not
enroll with hospice.
Both Harrison and Andino will join Editor-in-Chief Alan Weil on upcoming
episodes of A Health Podyssey to discuss their research. Subscribe

The Role Of Prices In Excess US Health Spending
[link removed]
This week, we released two Considering Health Spending
Research Briefs addressing the roles of prices and clinical waste in
excess US health spending.
One brief, "The Role Of Prices In Excess US Health Spending
",
points to high prices in the private sector as a critical driver of
excess health spending and growth in the US.
Another brief examines the role of clinical waste
in excess US health spending. According to the research cited in this
brief, clinical waste is a critical driver of excess health spending in
the US, accounting for 5.4-15.7 percent of national health spending.
Considering Health Spending Research Briefs are supported by the
National Pharmaceutical Council and by Anthem, Inc. Briefs are produced
by Health Affairs staff based on research conducted to support the
Health Affairs Council on Health Care Spending and Value

needs of older Americans

technology, and flexible payment model strategies.
Sara Rosenbaum and coauthors assert that Medicaid's performance

decision in Dobbs v Jackson Women's Health Organization.

Bayer go over the big health policy headlines from this week
