Purpose High-deductible health plans (HDHPs) require substantial out-of-pocket spending and might delay crucial services. Breast cancer treatment delays of as little 2 months are associated with adverse outcomes. Methods We used a controlled prepost design survival analysis to assess timing breast care events among 273,499 women age 25 64 years without evidence before inclusion. Women were included if continuously enrolled for 1 year in low-deductible ($0 $500) plan followed by up 4 HDHP (at...
Background: Prior authorization is a popular, but understudied, strategy for reducing medication costs.We evaluated the impact of controversial prior policy in Michigan Medicaid on antidepressant use and health outcomes among dual Medicare enrollees with Social Security Disability Insurance designation permanent disability.Methods: We linked (2000-2003) claims comparison state, Indiana.Using interrupted time-series longitudinal data analysis, we estimated use, treatment initiation,...
Objective. To examine whether high-deductible health plans (HDHPs) that exempt prescription drugs from full cost sharing preserve medication use for major chronic illness, compared with traditional HMOs similar drug sharing. Data Sources/Study Setting. We examined 2001–2008 pharmacy claims data of 3,348 continuously enrolled adults in a Massachusetts plan 9 months before and 24 after an employer-mandated switch HMO to HDHP, 20,534 contemporaneous matched members. Both study groups faced...
State Medicaid programs introduce many types of prescribing restrictions to manage pharmaceutical use and expenditure. Little is known about the differential effect implementing prior authorization (PA) policies at market entry versus waiting until several years later when behavior may already be established.We sought examine impact on overall Cox II inhibitors PA implemented least 2 after entry.We quantified inhibitor nonselective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) utilization for...
Emission trading scheme (ETS), the most popular market-based instrument, is widely used to solve carbon emission problems in world. With development of market, asset has been a financial product invest and risk management becomes important for government, regulated enterprises other investors. As prices have tail characteristics, this paper explores extremal risks between markets US, Europe China using dependence correlation coefficients. The empirical analysis demonstrates structure US....
Users' historical activities are usually contained in real-life sequential recommendation systems to predict their future behaviors. In this situation, traditional Factorization Machines (FMs) approaches may be not suitable. Recently, a new surge of interest aims use recurrent neural networks(RNN) encode users' dynamic features with temporal characteristics. However, most these works fail reproduce computational simplicity FMs. paper, we propose an architecture extended-FM for...
552 Background: High-deductible health plans (HDHPs) requiring substantial out-of-pocket costs for most services might reduce appropriate care. This study examined the impact of modern HDHPs on use adjuvant hormonal therapy, which is a fundamental treatment secondary prevention in patients with breast cancer. Methods: We studied 970 women newly diagnosed early cancer who were insured by employers that mandated transition from low-deductible ( < = $500) to high deductible > $1,000) coverage...
6503 Background: High-deductible health plans (HDHPs) have grown rapidly in recent years, and now cover over one-half of U.S. workers. Patients HDHPs are liable for the costs all cancer-related care until their annual deductible is met, with exception screening tests such as colonoscopy mammography. Due to increased out-of-pocket obligations, patients may postpone presenting concerning symptoms or diagnostic testing, leading delayed diagnosis. We therefore assessed impacts on timing...
In recent years, the continuous development of big data, cloud services, Internet+, artificial intelligence, and other technologies has accelerated improvement data communication services in traditional pharmaceutical industry. It plays a leading role my country’s industry, deepening reform health system, improving efficiency quality medical developing new technologies. this context, we make following research draw conclusions: (1) scale market is constantly increasing, global also...
