Health Policy Briefs examine complex questions currently being debated in health policy and health services research. We published several briefs in 2022 that covered a range of
topics including value-based payments, structural stigma in law, and more.
Take a look through some of our most recently published briefs.
A recent Considering Health Spending Research Brief focuses on value-based payment as a tool to address
excess US health spending.
One of the key findings from this brief is that over half of health care payments in the US are still based on fee-for-service and savings attributable to Accountable Care Organizations range from just under one percent to just over six percent of per person spending.
Brittany Brown-Podgorski and Eric Roberts review existing data resources to study the Medicare and Medicaid dual-eligible population and provide guidance around how infrastructure could play a role in informing equity-focused care.
Sarah Hemeida and coauthors highlight stigma as an inherently structural phenomenon with significant negative health implications. They analyze how laws are powerful mediators for structural stigma and critical levers for anti-stigma work.
Today in Forefront, Lisa Simon discusses CMS’s new guarantee to cover dental services and how this expanded care might address oral health inequities among Medicare beneficiaries.
