Abstract:

In the fiscal year 2014, approximately 1,337 health care providers lost their provider license to Medicare/Medicaid fraud. Out of the 1,318 criminal convictions reported by the U.S. Medicaid Fraud Control Units (MFCU), 395 (30%) were home health care aides who claimed to have rendered services not provided. The purpose of this multiple case study was to explore licensed and certified home health care business managers' strategies to mitigate Medicare/Medicaid fraud risk. A purposive sampling of 9 business managers and chief executive officers from 3 licensed and certified home health care busi

The Health Care Finance Administration is challenged with improving enrollment into the alternative managed health care system called Medicare+Choice. The current Medicare cohort is knowledgeable about where to obtain information about Medicare+Choice, but they cannot recall the terminology or comprehend the concepts of the program.

Abstract:

The purpose of the study is to analyze the difference in the utilization of prescribed medications by Medicaid and Medicare recipients. This study examines problems many individuals in longterm care facilities face, when they are medicare recipients and unable to receive medical care which is as adequate as those who are beneficiaries of Medicaid. This study involved thirty residents, divided equally into two groups. They resided in a small long-term care facility located in Fulton County (Georgia). Findings revealed that Medicare recipients tend to visit their health providers less frequently

Abstract:

The Medicare Annual Wellness Visit (AWV) has been available to Medicare beneficiaries since 2005; however, most eligible individuals have not taken advantage of this benefit. The literature supports that patients are willing to schedule and complete an AWV if urged to do so by their primary care provider; however, providers are reluctant to advise patients to pursue the AWV due to the lack of perceived value and overall health benefit. The integrative theory of health behavior change was used as the theoretical framework for the project. By increasing patient self-management skills through edu

This study investigated the personal medication management practices of some Medicare eligible university retirees and their dependents.

Responses to the research questions revealed a higher level of understanding and compliance than previously reported by others.

We consider the effect of disability status on Medicare expenditures. Disabled elderly historically have accounted for a significant portion of Medicare expenditures.

To better understand the effect of disability on Medicare expenditures, we develop and estimate a model using the generalized method of moments technique.

Medicare eligibles have the option of choosing from a menu of privately administered managed care plans, known as Medicare Advantage (MA) plans, in lieu of conventional fee-for-service Medicare coverage ("original Medicare"). These plans often provide extra benefits to enrollees, but may impose large switching costs as a result of restrictive provider networks, differences in coverage across plans, and learning and search costs. I propose a structural dynamic discrete choice model of how consumers who are persistently heterogeneous make the choice among MA plans and original Medicare based on

Abstract:

For much of the early 1960s, House Ways and Means chairman Wilbur Mills represented the “One-Man Veto” on Medicare before eventually offering his reluctant support to the measure in 1964 and 1965. Ironically, this longtime opponent would be the one to suggest an expansion in the scope of the bill. Early proposals for Medicare only offered to cover hospital costs; Mills would call for physician costs to be covered, as well. The aim of this thesis is to show how Mills’s expansion of Medicare benefits in 1965 caused health care costs to skyrocket in the late 1960s, causing the fiscally conservati

Lack of coordination is one of the most referenced causes of waste in the U.S. healthcare system, and preventable hospital readmissions have been acknowledged to be evidence of poor coordination of care.
