Assessing the effectiveness of health care cost containment measures: evidence from the market for rehabilitation care
International Journal of Health Care Finance and Economics - Tập 14 - Trang 41-67 - 2013
This study empirically evaluates the effectiveness of different health care cost containment measures. The measures investigated were introduced in Germany in 1997 to reduce moral hazard and public health expenditures in the market for rehabilitation care. Of the analyzed measures, doubling the daily copayments was clearly the most effective cost containment measure, resulting in a reduction in ut...... hiện toàn bộ
Employer Offers, Private Coverage, and the Tax Subsidy for Health Insurance: 1987 and 1996
International Journal of Health Care Finance and Economics - Tập 2 - Trang 297-318 - 2002
Economists have long been interested in the effect of tax-based subsidies on private health insurance coverage. We examine this relationship using pooled data from the 1987 National Medical Expenditure Survey and the 1996 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey. Our main tax price elasticity estimates for employer offers and for private coverage are near the mid-point of the existing literature. However,...... hiện toàn bộ
Does managed care reduce health care expenditure? Evidence from spatial panel data
International Journal of Health Care Finance and Economics - Tập 14 - Trang 207-227 - 2014
Similar to, for example, the US, Switzerland or Great Britain the German health care sector has recently undergone a series of reforms towards managed care. These measures are intended to yield both a higher quality of care and cost containment. In our study we ask whether managed care reduces health care expenditure at the market level. We apply a macroeconomic evaluation approach based on a regi...... hiện toàn bộ
The Impact of the Tax System on Health Insurance Coverage
International Journal of Health Care Finance and Economics - Tập 1 - Trang 293-304 - 2001
A central question in health economics is the extent to which this tax subsidization matters for the health insurance coverage of the U.S. population. I assess the impact of taxes on health insurance by using the considerable existing variation in tax subsidies, both at a point in time and across time. I do so by putting together data from more than a decade of Current Population Survey (CPS) data...... hiện toàn bộ
The organization and financing of kidney dialysis and transplant care in the United States of America
International Journal of Health Care Finance and Economics - Tập 7 - Trang 301-318 - 2007
In the United States, end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients are primarily insured by the publicly funded Medicare program. Compared to other countries in the International Study of Health Care Organization and Financing (ISHCOF), the United States has the highest health care expenditures for the general population and among ESRD patients. However, because the Medicare program is more influential...... hiện toàn bộ

The organization and financing of end-stage renal disease treatment in Japan
International Journal of Health Care Finance and Economics - Tập 7 - Trang 217-231 - 2007
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) affects 230,000 Japanese, with about 36,000 cases diagnosed each year. Recent increases in ESRD incidence are attributed mainly to increases in diabetes and a rapidly aging population. Renal transplantation is rare in Japan. In private dialysis clinics, the majority of treatment costs are paid as fixed fees per session and the rest are fee for service. Payments for h...... hiện toàn bộ
Refining estimates of catastrophic healthcare expenditure: an application in the Indian context
International Journal of Health Care Finance and Economics - Tập 13 Số 2 - Trang 157-172 - 2013
Empirics of catastrophic healthcare expenditure, especially in the Indian context, are often based on consumption expenditure data that inadequately informs about the ability to pay. Use of such data can generate a pro-rich bias in the estimation of catastrophic expenditure thereby suggesting greater concentration of such expenditures among richer households. To improve upon the existing approach,...... hiện toàn bộ
