car Strengthening Medicare for 2030 - A working paper series By webfeeds.brookings.edu Published On :: Thu, 04 Jun 2015 00:00:00 -0400 The addition of Medicare in 1965 completed a suite of federal programs designed to protect the wealth and health of people reaching older ages in the United States, starting with the Committee on Economic Security of 1934—known today as Social Security. While few would deny Medicare’s important role in improving older and disabled Americans’ financial security and health, many worry about sustaining and strengthening Medicare to finance high-quality, affordable health care for coming generations. In 1965, average life expectancy for a 65-year-old man and woman was another 13 years and 16 years, respectively. Now, life expectancy for 65-year-olds is 18 years for men and 20 years for women—effectively a four- to five-year increase. In 2011, the first of 75-million-plus baby boomers became eligible for Medicare. And by 2029, when all of the baby boomers will be 65 or older, the U.S. Census Bureau predicts 20 percent of the U.S. population will be older than 65. Just by virtue of the sheer size of the aging population, Medicare spending growth will accelerate sharply in the coming years. Estimated Medicare Spending, 2010-2030 Sources: Future Elderly Model (FEM), University of Southern California Leonard D. Schaeffer Center for Health Policy & Economics, U.S. Census Bureau projections, Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The Center for Health Policy at Brookings and the USC Leonard D. Schaeffer Center for Health Policy and Economics' half-day forum on the future of Medicare, looked ahead to the year 2030--a year when the youngest baby boomers will be Medicare-eligible-- to explore the changing demographics, health care needs, medical technology costs, and financial resources that will be available to beneficiaries. The working papers below address five critical components of Medicare reform, including: modernizing Medicare's infrastructure, benefit design, marketplace competition, and payment mechanisms. DISCUSSION PAPERS Health and Health Care of Beneficiaries in 2030, Étienne Gaudette, Bryan Tysinger, Alwyn Cassil and Dana Goldman: This chartbook, prepared by the USC Schaeffer Center, aims to help policymakers understand how Medicare spending and beneficiary demographics will likely change over the next 15 years to help strengthen and sustain the program. Trends in the Well-Being of Aged and their Prospects through 2030, Gary Burtless: This paper offers a survey of trends in old-age poverty, income, inequality, labor market activity, insurance coverage, and health status, and provides a brief discussion of whether the favorable trends of the past half century can continue in the next few decades. The Transformation of Medicare, 2015 to 2030, Henry J. Aaron and Robert Reischauer: This paper discusses how Medicare can be made a better program and how it should look in 2030s using the perspectives of beneficiaries, policymakers and administrators; and that of society at large. Could Improving Choice and Competition in Medicare Advantage be the Future of Medicare?, Alice Rivlin and Willem Daniel: This paper explores the advantages and disadvantages of strengthening competition in Medicare Advantage (MA), including a look at the bidding process and replacing fee-for-service methodologies. Improving Provider Payment in Medicare, Paul Ginsburg and Gail Wilensky: This paper discusses the various alternative payment models currently being implemented in the private sector and elsewhere that can be employed in the Medicare program to preserve quality of care and also reduce costs.

With those numbers expected to rise as the baby boomer generation ages, many policy experts consider this impending expansion a major threat to the nation’s economic future and question how it might affect the quality and value of health care for Medicare beneficiaries. On June 5, the Center for Health Policy at Brookings and the USC Leonard D. Schaeffer Center for Health Policy and Economics hosted a half-day forum on the future of Medicare. Instead of reflecting on historical accomplishments, the event looked ahead to 2030—a time when the youngest Baby Boomers will be Medicare-eligible—and explore the changing demographics, health care needs, medical technology costs, and financial resources available to beneficiaries. The panels focused on modernizing Medicare's infrastructure, benefit design, marketplace competition, and payment mechanisms. The event also included the release of five policy papers from featured panelists. Please note that presentation slides from USC's Dana Goldman will not be available for download.

car The stunning ignorance of Trump's health care plan By webfeeds.brookings.edu Published On :: Mon, 07 Mar 2016 16:32:00 -0500 One cannot help feeling a bit silly taking seriously the policy proposals of a person who seems not to take policy seriously himself. Donald Trump's policy positions have evolved faster over the years than a teenager's moods. He was for a woman's right to choose; now he is against it. He was for a wealth tax to pay off the national debt before proposing a tax plan that would enrich the wealthy and balloon the national debt. He was for universal health care but opposed to any practical way to achieve it. Based on his previous flexibility, Trump's here-today proposals may well be gone tomorrow. As a sometime-Democrat, sometime-Republican, sometime-independent, who is now the leading candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, Trump has just issued his latest pronouncements on health care policy. So, what the hell, let's give them more respect than he has given his own past policy statements. Perhaps unsurprisingly, those earlier pronouncements are notable for their detachment from fact and lack of internal logic. The one-time supporter of universal health care now joins other candidates in his newly-embraced party in calling for repeal of the only serious legislative attempt in American history to move toward universal coverage, the Affordable Care Act. Among his stated reasons for repeal, he alleges that the act has "resulted in runaway costs," promoted health care rationing, reduced competition and narrowed choice. Each of these statements is clearly and demonstrably false. Health care spending per person has grown less rapidly in the six years since the Affordable Care Act was enacted than in any corresponding period in the last four decades. There is now less health care rationing than at any time in living memory, if the term rationing includes denial of care because it is unaffordable. Rationing because of unaffordability is certainly down for the more than 20 million people who are newly insured because of the Affordable Care Act. Hospital re-admissions, a standard indicator of low quality, are down, and the health care exchanges that Trump now says he would abolish, but that resemble the "health marts" he once espoused, have brought more choice to individual shoppers than private employers now offer or ever offered their workers. Trump's proposed alternative to the Affordable Care Act is even worse than his criticism of it. He would retain the highly popular provision in the act that bars insurance companies from denying people coverage because of preexisting conditions, a practice all too common in the years before the health care law. But he would do away with two other provisions of the Affordable Care Act that are essential to make that reform sustainable: the mandate that people carry insurance and the financial assistance to make that requirement feasible for people of modest means. Without those last two provisions, barring insurers from using preexisting conditions to jack up premiums or deny coverage would destroy the insurance market. Why? Because without the mandate and the financial aid, people would have powerful financial incentives to wait until they were seriously ill to buy insurance. They could safely do so, confident that some insurer would have to sell them coverage as soon as they became ill. Insurers that set affordable prices would go broke. If insurers set prices high enough to cover costs, few customers could afford them. In simple terms, Trump's promise to bar insurers from using preexisting conditions to screen customers but simultaneously to scrap the companion provisions that make the bar feasible is either the fraudulent offer of a huckster who takes voters for fools, or clear evidence of stunning ignorance about how insurance works. Take your pick. Unfortunately, none of the other Republican candidates offers a plan demonstrably superior to Trump's. All begin by calling for repeal and replacement of the Affordable Care Act. But none has yet advanced a well-crafted replacement. It is not that the Affordable Care Act is perfect legislation. It isn't. But, as the old saying goes, you can't beat something with nothing. And so far as health care reform is concerned, nothing is what the Republican candidates now have on offer. Editor's note: This piece originally appeared in U.S. News and World Report.

car Politics Trump Economics in the Complex Game of Eastern Mediterranean Hydrocarbons By webfeeds.brookings.edu Published On :: Fri, 20 Dec 2013 14:35:00 -0500 A 2010 publication of the U.S. Geological Survey caused major excitement in Cyprus, an island that at the time was suffering from the economic collapse of its neighbor and major trading partner, Greece. According to the publication, the seabed of the Eastern Mediterranean could contain up to 120 trillion cubic feet (tcf) of natural gas.3 Three years later, the Cypriot administration has high hopes that natural gas exports may get Cyprus—the third smallest European Union member state—back on its feet, after its own financial collapse in 2012. Unfortunately for the Cypriots, the reality on the ground is sobering, and it is currently unclear whether Cyprus will become a producer, or an exporter, of natural gas. Around Cyprus, other countries hope to benefit from the energy potential as well, including Israel, Lebanon and the Palestinian Authority. In the Israeli Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), in particular, substantial reserves of natural gas have been found, though the verdict is out whether these will in fact all be produced. Exploration of Cyprus’s offshore concessions is at an early stage. Energy majors such as ENI and Total are among the first to explore possible gas (and oil) reserves and they expect results not before 2015. To date, only two test wells have been drilled by Houston-based Noble Energy. Proven reserves have been downgraded since and are currently estimated to be between 3 and 5 tcf. At this level of reserves, investing in a natural gas liquefaction terminal, which the Cypriot administration has supported, is not economically viable. A better alternative would be to construct a pipeline to Turkey, which has a large and rapidly growing market for natural gas.

Faced with this sudden surge in demand, grocery stores across the country were completely overwhelmed.
