- In a finding that challenges the notion that immigrants are freeloaders in the American health care system, a new study shows they are paying a lot more through health care premiums and related taxes than they actually use in care. In fact, the amount that immigrants pay in makes up for some of the amount of health care that non-immigrants use in excess of what they pay. “Some politicians and…November 2022Services & Programs

- Medicaid has a long history of serving pregnant women, but many women are not eligible for Medicaid before pregnancy or after sixty days postpartum. We used data for new mothers with Medicaid-covered prenatal care in 2015–18 from forty-three states participating in the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) to describe patterns of perinatal uninsurance and health outcomes of women…April 2021Illness/Disease/Injury/Wellbeing, Maternal/Child Health, Depression, Medicaid

- The National Quality Forum and several collaborators launched the National Quality Task Force in late 2018 to analyze the progress of the modern quality movement today and recommend a path forward. Despite impressive gains, notable shortcomings persist in normalizing consistent, high-value, person-centered care. What is primarily missing is not progress in measurement, but progress in results.…May 2020Health Reform
- States developing accountable health models often look to Oregon for inspiration. Oregon established its Coordinated Care Organizations (CCOs) in 2012, pursuant to a Medicaid Section 1115 demonstration waiver. CCOs are local networks of all types of health care providers – including physical, behavioral, and oral health providers – that the state pays a global capitated rate to provide…March 2019Medicaid
