Abstract:

A current policy issue is whether, and if so under what circumstances, insurance companies should be given access to genetic test results. The insurance industry argues for mandatory disclosure in order to avoid problems of adverse selection; an alternative would be a moratorium or legislation preventing such disclosure; a third option a voluntary disclosure law. This paper investigates the impact of these policies on individuals' incentives to both acquire genetic information and to disclose it to providers of health and/or life insurance. The theoretical framework used to inform this analysi

Abstract:

The primary objective of “all-payer” rate setting—regulatory regimes through which states set hospital payment rates for all insurers—was to control costs through consistent, centrally regulated payments. These regimes were often linked, however, to an ancillary goal of financing care for the uninsured. We show that the surcharge mechanism used to achieve this secondary objective decreased the stability of these payment regimes. This instability reflected a feedback loop from surcharge rates to insurance coverage and back to the quantities of uncompensated care in need of financing. Instabilit

This article presents a series of measures of the extent to which social policies in twenty-one OECD countries are oriented towards the support of elderly (over 65 or in formal retirement) and non-elderly (under 65 and not retired) population groups. Employing breakdowns by age in spending on social insurance, education and health, tax expenditures on welfare substituting goods, and housing policy outcomes, this article shows that countries tend to demonstrate a consistent age-orientation across a variety of policy areas and instruments.

Abstract Indonesia’s National Social Security System (SJSN) aspires to universal coverage of insurance for health, retirement, and occupational benefits, such as employment injury. This article surveys the successive layers of policy development since the 1960s, in pensions and health benefits for some, and in social assistance programmes for the poor in the Reformasi era. Clarifying the nature of prior developments helps to understand the challenges facing the SJSN.

By all accounts, this tort law regime ill serves the basic deterrence and compensation goals of civil liability.

17 Background: WM is a rare, indolent B-cell lymphoma with 1000 to 1500 new cases diagnosed annually in the US. The disease is incurable with current therapy. Prior to January 2015 when ibrutinib was approved by the US FDA for WM, there were no therapies approved in this indication. This study describes initial systemic anti-cancer therapy (SACT) and HRU among WM patients (pts). Methods: A retrospective study using a large, national US claims database from 1/2007-10/2013 was conducted. Adult WM pts ( ≥ 2 claims for WM) with ≥ 1 claim for SACT were identified; the first SACT claim date was the

We aimed to evaluate factors influencing the outcomes of patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC). Patients with advanced-stage EOC, who received debulking surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy for recurrence, were obtained from the National Health Insurance Research database of Taiwan between 2000 and 2013. A total of 1038 patients with recurrent advanced-stage EOC were recruited. The platinum + paclitaxel (PT) group had the best five-year overall survival (OS) compared with the other three groups (p < 0.001). The hazard ratios (HRs) of five-year OS for the

Background: Mortality among people living with the human immunodeficiency virus (PLWH [HIV]) diagnosed with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-defining cancers has greatly decreased with the advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). Recent investigations exploring the impact of insurance coverage have concluded that PLWH with public insurance have greater mortality than their privately insured counterparts. One avenue to augment medical coverage is the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program, first authorized by Congress in 1990 to provide primary care and support services to PLWH. Th

Since these are chronic conditions they require ongoing management and treatment. This often results in a significant cost. The major contributor to this is the cost of factor replacement, which can be magnified if not handled in the most efficient manner.

Abstract:

Road traffic injuries and fatalities have been an increasingly severe public health problem in China. In order to provide victims with basic financial protection, since 2006, all the vehicles ran in China are forced to be insured by compulsory third party insurance. However, according to the textbook economic model, the compulsory insurance decreases the motivation for drivers to spend care when driving due to moral hazard effect. To test whether the moral hazard effect of compulsory insurance exists in China, we empirically reviewed the data obtained from Guangdong, China by using logistic re
