Medicare Contracting Reform

Agency Has Made Progress with Implementation, But Contractors Have Not Met All Performance Standards

By: Kathleen M. King

The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 significantly reformed contracting for payment of Medicare's $310 billion per year in fee-for-service claims. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is transitioning claims administration to 19 new entities known as Medicare Administrative Contractors (MAC) and plans to complete the process ahead of Oct. 1, 2011, the date required by law. This report examined: (1) how CMS has implemented Medicare contracting reform; (2) how CMS assessed the performance of the MACs and what the results of its assessments have been; and (3) what CMS's costs and savings have been for Medicare contracting reform.

Medicare Physician Payments

Medicare and Private Payment Differences for Anesthesia Services

By: Kathleen M. King

In 2005 Medicare paid over $1.4 billion for anesthesia services (AS). These services are provided by anesthesia practitioners (AP), such as anesthesiologists and certified registered nurse anesthetists. A study found that Medicare payments for AS are lower than private payments. This difference may create regional discrepancies in the supply of AP. This report examines: the extent to which Medicare payments for AS were lower than private payments across Medicare payment localities; whether the supply of AP across Medicare payment localities was related to the differences between Medicare and private payments for AS or the concentration of Medicare beneficiaries; and compensation levels for AP in 2005 and trends in graduate training.

Medicare Recovery Audit Contracting

Weaknesses Remain in Addressing Vulnerabilities to Improper Payments, Although Improvements Made to Contractor Oversight

By: Kathleen M. King

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) conducted a three-year project to demonstrate the use of recovery audit contractors (RAC) in identifying Medicare improper payments and recouping overpayments. This report examined issues that arose during the demonstration project and CMS¿s efforts to address them in the national RAC program. It examines the extent to which CMS: (1) developed a process and took corrective actions to address vulnerabilities identified by the RACs that led to improper payments; (2) resolved coordination issues between the RACs and the Medicare claims admin. contractors; and (3) established methods to oversee RAC claim review accuracy and provider service during the national program.

Methadone-Associated Overdose Deaths

Factors Contributing to Increased Deaths and Efforts to Prevent Them

By: Kathleen M. King

Methadone-associated overdose deaths (MAOD) -- those in which methadone may have caused or contributed to the death -- have risen sharply. Before the late 1990s, methadone was used mainly to treat opioid addiction but has since been increasingly prescribed to manage pain. Taken too often, in too high a dose, or with other drugs or alcohol, methadone can cause serious side effects and death. MAOD can occur under several different scenarios, incl. improper dosing levels by practitioners, misuse by patients who may combine methadone with other drugs, or abuse -- using the drug for non-therapeutic purposes. This report examines the reg¿n. of methadone, factors that have contributed to the increase in MAOD, and steps taken to prevent MAOD. Ill.

Five Powerful Classroom Practices

By: Kathleen M. Budge,William H. Parrett

Drawing upon decades of research and myriad authentic classroom experiences, Kathleen M. Budge and William H. Parrett dispel harmful myths, explain the facts, and urge educators to act against the debilitating effects of poverty on their students.

Readers will explore classroom-tested strategies and practices, plus online templates and exercises that can be used for personal reflection or ongoing collaboration with colleagues.

Medicare: Issues for Manufacturer-Level Bidding for Durable Medical Equipment

Medicare: Issues for Manufacturer-Level Bidding for Durable Medical Equipment

By: Kathleen M. King

In 2009, Medicare spent approx. $8.1 billion on durable medical equipment (DME), prosthetics, orthotics, and related supplies for 10.6 million beneficiaries. DME includes items such as wheelchairs, hospital beds, and walkers. Medicare beneficiaries typically obtain DME items from suppliers, who submit claims for payment for these items to Medicare on behalf of beneficiaries. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), an agency within the Dept. of Health and Human Services (HHS), has responsibility for administering the Medicare program. Medicare and its beneficiaries -- through their out-of-pocket costs -- have sometimes paid higher than market rates for various medical equipment and supplies. To achieve Medicare savings for DME and to address DME fraud concerns, Congress required CMS to phase in a competitive bidding program (CBP) for DME suppliers in selected competitive bidding areas (CBA). In CBP, suppliers submit bid prices in the amounts they are willing to accept as payment to provide DME items to Medicare beneficiaries. CMS then enters into contracts with select DME suppliers to provide DME items at the prices determined by CBP. In contrast to CBP's supplier-level approach, some health care purchasers use a manufacturer-level approach to buy DME items directly from DME manufacturers to obtain savings by leveraging their purchasing power. CMS has not been required to develop a manufacturer-level approach. This report provides information on health care purchasers that currently use a manufacturer-level approach and on issues that would need to be addressed if CMS implemented such an approach. It describes (1) efforts used by some non- Medicare purchasers to reduce DME spending by contracting with DME manufacturers or using purchasing intermediaries, and (2) issues that CMS might face if required to implement a DME manufacturer-level approach with broad authority to do so. Figures and tables. This is a print on demand report.

Home Infusion Therapy

Differences Between Medicare and Private Insurers' Coverage

By: Kathleen M. King

Infusion therapy -- drug treatment administered intravenously -- was once provided strictly in hospitals. However, clinical developments and emphasis on cost containment have prompted a shift to other settings, including the home. Home infusion requires coordination among providers of drugs, equipment, and skilled nursing care. It describes: (1) coverage of home infusion therapy components under Medicare fee-for-service (FFS); (2) coverage and payment for home infusion therapy by other health insurers -- both commercial plans and Medicare Advantage plans, which provide a private alternative to Medicare FFS; and (3) the utilization and quality management practices that health insurers use with home infusion therapy benefits.

This report: (1) describes interactions between CMS and IHS; (2) examines mechanisms CMS uses to interact and consult with Indian tribes; (3) examines mechanisms that selected states¿ Medicaid programs use to interact and consult with Indian tribes; and (4) identifies barriers to M&M enrollment and efforts to help eligible Amer.

Medicare Fraud, Waste, and Abuse: Challenges and Strategies for Preventing Improper Payments

Congressional Testimony

By: Kathleen M. King

Medicare¿s size and complexity make it vulnerable to fraud, waste, and abuse. Fraud represents intentional acts of deception with knowledge that the action or representation could result in an inappropriate gain, while abuse represents actions inconsistent with acceptable bus. or med. practices. Waste, which includes inaccurate payments for services, also occurs in the Medicare program. In 2009, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) estimated billions of dollars in improper payments in the Medicare program. This statement focuses on challenges facing CMS and selected key strategies that are particularly important to helping prevent fraud, waste, and abuse, and ultimately to reducing improper payments.

Human-Centered Data Discovery

By: Kathleen Gregory,Laura Koesten

This book synthesizes existing research on human-centered data discovery, as well as the recommendations which exist for supporting the design of sustainable, user-centered data search systems. While information-seeking in various settings has been well-researched within computer and information science, not much is known about human-centered data discovery, or how people discover, understand and interact with data that others create. This is particularly relevant given the ever-increasing amounts of data being produced and made available, and the creation of data-specific discovery tools and systems. This book examines how people find the data they need, which search strategies and tools they use, how they understand data, and how search systems can be better designed to meet people’s needs.
