Sunday, July 3, 2022 | The Latest Research, Commentary, And News From
Health Affairs
Dear John,
This week, the White House released the Maternal Health Blueprint
which cites several papers from Health Affairs. Subscribe
to Health Affairs to read the research behind the blueprint.
What's New At Health Affairs
[link removed]
An estimated 37.3 million Americans have type 2 diabetes, an increase of
more than 40 percent from a decade ago.
The July 2022 issue of Health Affairs, to be published on Tuesday, is
devoted to papers discussing how we can prevent and improve care and
outcomes for type 2 diabetes
.
In one paper, Mohammed Ali and coauthors argue that fragmentation in
insurance coverage, payment, and delivery
have all contributed to poor diabetes outcomes in the United States.
Despite a strong base of evidence supporting care management activities
designed to assist patients
,
Thomas Bodenheimer and Rachel Willard-Grace note significant barriers to
wider use of these programs in primary care.
David Jiang and coauthors propose the adoption of new quality measures
and modernization of existing ones, arguing for alignment of measures
with the six domains of quality as defined by the National Academy of
Medicine.
Leonard Egede and coauthors conduct a systematic review of studies of
nonmedical interventions for diabetes
and find that "interventions with targeted, multicomponent designs
that combine both medical and nonmedical approaches" can improve
outcomes.
Maria Alva and coauthors analyze national survey data and determine that
13.5 percent of the population has prediabetes
,
representing a 4.8 percentage point increase between 2010 and 2020.
Sabrina Wang and coauthors analyze alternative payment models for
diabetes care
and conclude that "the fragmented US health care system, with its
myriad payers and payment models, is structurally at odds with the need
for care continuity for chronic conditions such as diabetes."
Pre-Order The Issue
Disability And Health
Health Affairs is publishing a theme issue on disability and health
in October 2022. Content will include original research, analyses, and
commentaries that provides a multidimensional perspective on disability
and health.
As part of Health Affairs' commitment to supporting and raising
awareness of disabilities and health, we will launch a video component,
as well as unique artwork and digital assets, alongside the research to
set the foundation of the issue.
We invite participants to submit their responses
to the proposals for video production and artwork and digital assets by
July 15.
We will also host a poetry contest
for the Narrative Matters section of the issue.
We are looking for well-crafted poems that touch on topics related to
disability and health, by writers with lived experience of disability.
(Note: This includes family members or caregivers of people with
disabilities.)
The winning poet will receive a $500 prize and publication in the
October issue of Health Affairs. The contest is open until July 25.
Elsewhere At Health Affairs
In Health Affairs Forefront, authors write about care delivery, such as
Hospital at Home Care, and the Medicare Hospital Insurance Trust Fund.
Bruce Leff and Arnold Milstein write that although the Acute Hospital
Care at Home
waiver applied only to fee-for-service Medicare, hospitals and health
systems have taken it as a sign that Hospital at Home care is entering
the mainstream of health service delivery.
Adaeze Enekwechi and coauthors address projections
that the Medicare Hospital Insurance Trust Fund will be depleted in 2028
and discuss how to prevent this time from being squandered.
In an episode of This Week, Health Affairs' Chris Fleming interviews
Manatt Health's Cindy Mann on budget neutrality requirements
for
Medicaid 1115 demonstrations.
Currently, more than 70 percent of our content is freely available-and
we'd like to keep it that way. With your support,
we can continue to keep our digital publication Forefront
and podcasts
free for everyone.
