Reports Examine Health System Change, Medicaid Policy, Life Expectancy Disparities, MA Plans, Individual Health Plan Premiums

"Are We Heading Toward Socialized Medicine?" Urban Institute: The report by Stan Dorn and John Holahan discusses rhetoric that claims recent proposals to restructure the U.S. health care system represent "dangerous steps" that will move the country toward government-run health care and socialized medicine. According to the authors, neither legislation for SCHIP reauthorization and expansion nor proposals from the major Democratic presidential candidates would overturn the dominant role of private insurance and providers in the U.S. health care system. Dorn and Holahan write, "Inaccurate rhetoric about socialized medicine and government-run health care is a distraction from these much more fundamental concerns" (Dorn/Holahan, "Are We Heading Toward Socialized Medicine?" 4/16).

A webcast of a forum to discuss the report is available online at kaisernetwork.org.

"Examining a Major Policy Shift: New Federal Limits on Medicaid Coverage for Children," National Academy for State Health Policy: The paper examines a recent CMS policy decision that prohibits some states from increasing Medicaid eligibility levels for low-income children who are eligible for SCHIP. CMS has indicated that this population must be first covered using SCHIP funds before Medicaid eligibility can be expanded. The paper also examines the implications of the new rules for children's health coverage (NASHP release, 4/17).

"Growing Disparities in Life Expectancy," Congressional Budget Office: The issue brief analyzes the widening gap in life expectancy between individuals with high and low incomes, as well as between those with more and less education. The report also examines factors contributing to differences in life expectancy between socioeconomic groups and the potential implications of the disparity on Social Security and Medicare. It also provides international comparisons of life expectancies among different socioeconomic groups (CBO, "Growing Disparities in Life Expectancy," 4/17).

"Medicare Advantage: Options for Standardizing Benefits and Information To Improve Consumer Choice," Commonwealth Fund: The issue brief attributes problems associated with MA plans to their high degree of variability and complexity and the lack of good information beneficiaries have to make educated choices. Based on discussions with experts, the authors outline three possible solutions to these problems: requiring more standardized information and better tools to support beneficiaries' decision-making; implementing a few standardized benefit and cost-sharing regimes to limit the numbers of dimensions along which plans may vary; and requiring that plans cap out-of-pocket costs (Commonwealth Fund release, 4/16).

"Premiums in the Individual Health Insurance Market for Policyholders Under Age 65: 2002 and 2005," Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality: According to the AHRQ analysis, the average annual premium for an individual health insurance policy in the nongroup market was $2,835 in 2005, up from $2,531 in 2002, and the average annual premium for family policies was $5,568 in 2005, up from $4,442 in 2002. Premiums for private individual plans averaged $1,580 for people younger than age 40 and $4,288 for people between ages 55 and 64. For people with employer-sponsored coverage, average annual out-of-pocket premiums increased from $1,231 to $1,655 between 2002 and 2005 (AHRQ release, 4/16).
