Sunday, July 24, 2022 | The Latest Research, Commentary, And News From
Health Affairs
Dear John,
The news about Amazon acquiring One Medical sent shockwaves throughout
the industry. There's no better time to revisit Lalita Abhyankar's
limited podcast series Piecemeal
which
focuses on independent primary care consolidation.
What's New At Health Affairs
In their ahead-of-print article published earlier this week
,
Hannah Shadowen and coauthors analyze results from the Medicaid
Expansion New Member Survey, for which the follow-up survey period
overlapped with the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their findings offer insights on the impact of public health insurance
in a time of economic and public health crisis.
They find that Medicaid enrollment was significantly associated with
decreases in reporting nonmedical financial needs and decreases in
concern about medical costs and medical debts.
Shadowen and coauthors report 5.0 and 7.7 percentage-point decreases in
the likelihood of respondents being concerned about paying for housing
costs and food, respectively, after twelve months of enrollment compared
with the year before enrollment.
Further, the likelihood of being concerned about the cost of normal
health care and the cost of catastrophic health care decreased by 33.7
percentage points and 23.8 percentage points, respectively.
