Sunday, October 23, 2022 | The Latest Research, Commentary, And News
From Health Affairs

Dear John,

In case you missed it, we just announced a new Policy Spotlight
<[link removed]> event
on Tuesday, November 1 featuring Robert Otto Valdez, the new director of
the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality at the US Department of
Health and Human Services. The event will be open to all.

Medicare And Medicaid Integration

This week we published a new health policy brief
<[link removed]>
about payment policy and the challenges of Medicare and Medicaid
integration for dual-eligible beneficiaries

Medicare and Medicaid have different payment strategies that often work
at cross-purposes. This tension represents an ongoing obstacle to
controlling costs and improving care and services for beneficiaries
enrolled in both programs.

Key findings from the brief include:

* On a per service basis, providers are often paid less to treat
dual-eligible beneficiaries than they would be paid to treat
Medicare-only beneficiaries because of "lesser-of" payment policies.

* Current capitated payment approaches benefit Medicare Advantage plans
serving dual-eligible beneficiaries.
