Medical and Surgical Episodes Among Hospital Participants in the Bundled Payments for Care Improvement-Advanced Program.

JAMA Netw Open

December 2024

Center for Advancing Health Services, Policy & Economics Research, Institute for Public Health, Washington University, St Louis, Missouri.

Importance: Hospital participation in the Bundled Payments for Care Improvement-Advanced (BPCI-A) initiative has been associated with modest savings and stable clinical outcomes overall, but it is unknown whether the program performs differently for medical and surgical or procedural (henceforth, surgical) episodes.

Objective: To assess the association of BPCI-A participation with Medicare spending and clinical outcomes for medical and surgical episodes.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This retrospective difference-in-differences cohort study utilized 100% Medicare fee-for-service inpatient claims for episodes initiated between January 1, 2017, and September 30, 2019, and included 90 days of follow-up.

Eosinophilia is a common laboratory finding with a broad differential diagnosis. Eosinophilia can be classified as primary, secondary, or idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES). Primary eosinophilia results from a clonal disorder of eosinophils, while secondary eosinophilia is reactive to a variety of underlying conditions, such as allergic diseases, infections, and drug reactions.

Background And Aim: Treatment effects of a combined rapid maxillary expansion (RME) and Delaire facemask (DFM) therapy have so far only been scientifically investigated through cephalometric analyses. The combination of cephalometric, dental cast and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan analysis was not yet used for investigating morphologic changes of the tooth-bearing palate. The aim of the present study was to determine whether patient age at treatment begin has an influence upon palatal length changes after RME/DFM therapy, and to what extent transverse palatal sutures contribute to these.

A prospective study comparing highly qualified Molecular Tumor Boards with AI-powered software as a medical device.

Int J Clin Oncol

December 2024

Translational Research Support Office, Division of Drug and Diagnostic Development Promotion, Department for the Promotion of Drug and Diagnostic Development, National Cancer Center Hospital East, 6-5-1 Kashiwanoha, Kashiwa, Chiba, 277-8577, Japan.

Background: The implementation of cancer precision medicine in Japan is deeply intertwined with insurance reimbursement policies and requires case-by-case reviews by Molecular Tumor Boards (MTBs), which impose considerable operational burdens on healthcare facilities. The extensive preparation and review times required by MTBs hinder their ability to efficiently assess comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) test results. Despite attempts to optimize MTB operations, significant challenges remain.

Introduction: The clinical benefits of fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium/vilanterol (FF/UMEC/VI) have been demonstrated in clinical trials. There is limited evidence regarding the effectiveness and economic outcomes associated with FF/UMEC/VI use in US clinical practice. This real-world study assessed asthma-related exacerbations, healthcare resource utilization (HRU), and healthcare costs among a Medicare Advantage-insured population before and after initiation of FF/UMEC/VI in patients with asthma previously treated with an inhaled corticosteroid/long-acting β-agonist (ICS/LABA).
