Introduction
In 2000, Americans spent more than $1.2 trillion for

health care which represents over 13% of the gross national product.
This amount exceeds the average amount spent by any other industrialized country.

Слайд 5© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Introduction
Public policy is attempting to direct our medical system

toward health promotion although Medicaid and Medicare and other major third-party payers offer limited reimbursement for preventive procedures.
Many studies show that early detection and intervention, immunization, and behavior change could significantly reduce many of the leading causes of death and disability.

An Overview of the Health Care Industry
Two general categories

of health insurance in the United States:
Private
Traditional fee-for-service
Group contract
Public
Medicare
Medicaid
State Children’s Health Insurance Program

Слайд 7© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth


Слайд 8© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Private Insurance
Approximately 70.2% of Americans have private insurance.
Private insurance

can be in the form of traditional fee-for-service insurance or group contract insurance.

Слайд 9© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Private Insurance
Traditional Fee-for-Service Plans
Include a billing system in which

the provider charges a fee for each service rendered.
Critics of this plan claim that they encourage physicians to provide more services than necessary.
Proponents prefer the greater flexibility and unrestricted access to physicians, tests, hospitals, and treatments.

Слайд 10© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Private Insurance
Group Contract Insurance
Managed-care systems, represented by health maintenance

organizations (HMOs) and preferred provider organizations (PPOs), are prepaid group practice plans that offer health care services through groups of medical practitioners.
The goal of managed care is improved quality of care with decreased cost.
91% of employees with health insurance were enrolled in managed-care plans in 1999.

Слайд 12© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Private Insurance – Group Contract Insurance
HMOs provide comprehensive services

across the continuum of care and they make money by keeping people healthy.
Prepaid group health plans emphasize health promotion since they provide health care services at a preset cost.
By keeping people healthy, HMOs avoid lengthy hospitalizations and costly services.

Слайд 13© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Private Insurance – Group Contract Insurance
General HMO models:
Staff model
Group

model
Network model
Independent practice association (IPA)
Point-of-service (POS) plan

The Medicare Program
Medicare is the largest health care insurer

in the U.S.
It is designed to assist:
People 65 and older
People of any age with end-stage renal disease
People eligible for Social Security disability payment programs for more than 2 years
Qualified railroad retirement beneficiaries and merchant seamen

Слайд 20© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The Medicare Program
Medicare consists of two separate parts:
Hospital

insurance (Part A)
Medical insurance (Part B)

Слайд 21© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The Medicare Program
Medicare Part A
Provides hospital insurance benefits

that include up to 90 days of inpatient care annually with a 20 percent coinsurance fee.
Hospital inpatient charges are reimbursed according to prospective payment system known as diagnosis related groups (DRGs).

Слайд 22© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The Medicare Program
Medicare Part B
An optional insurance program

financed through premiums paid by enrollees and contributions from federal funds.
Enrolled Medicare Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) providers are able to bill Medicare for MNT services provided to beneficiaries with type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes, nondialysis kidney disease, and post-kidney transplants.

The Medicaid Program
Medicaid is a joint state and federal

program that provides assistance with medical care for:
Eligible, low-income persons
Certain low-income pregnant women and children
The aged, blind, and people with disabilities
Members of families with dependent children in which one parent is absent, incapacitated, or unemployed

Слайд 25© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The Medicaid Program
The individual states define eligibility, benefits, and

payment schedules.
Typically, one must meet three criteria, including income, categorical, and resource.

Слайд 26© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The Medicaid Program
Medicaid covers a variety of services and

settings, including inpatient and outpatient hospital services, physicians’ services, skilled nursing home and home health services, and laboratory and x-ray tests.
To date, 36 state Medicaid programs cover certain forms of nutrition services provided by dietitians.

Слайд 27© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The State Children’s Health Insurance Program
The State Children’s Health

Insurance Program (SCHIP) is the largest single expansion of health insurance coverage for children in more than 30 years.
States have flexibility in targeting eligible uninsured children.
Many of the children served come from working families with incomes too high to qualify for Medicaid but too low to afford private health insurance.

Слайд 29© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The Uninsured
The uninsured include the working poor and those

who work for small businesses.
The employed uninsured number 15 million.

Слайд 30© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The Uninsured
The non-working uninsured number 9 million and include:


The homeless
Some deinstitutionalized mentally ill patients
Low-income people who do not qualify for Medicaid

Demographic Trends and Health Care
By the year 2030, the

baby boom will become a senior boom with 21 percent of the population over 65 years of age.
Racial and geographical factors in the population are also important to the shape of the future.

The Need for Health Care Reform
Health care reform refers

to the efforts undertaken to ensure that everyone in the U.S. has access to quality health care at an affordable price.

Слайд 35© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The Need for Health Care Reform
Some of the challenges

of health care reform include:
Making health care accessible to everyone.
Containing costs.
Providing nursing home care to those who need it.
Ensuring that Medicare and Medicaid can serve all who are eligible.

Слайд 36© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The Need for Health Care Reform
Cost, access, and quality

are interrelated and manipulating one has an astounding impact on the others.
Health care policy makers are studying alternative models of delivery and financing in hopes of applying other nations’ successes to the U.S.

Слайд 37© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth


Слайд 38© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The High Cost of Health Care
Health care inflation is

well established and the level of health care activity is expected to grow as a result of various factors including:
An aging population
Increased demand
Continuing advances in medicine

Слайд 39© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
National Health Expenditures (Billions of Dollars)


Слайд 40© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The High Cost of Health Care
Major contributors to health

care expenditures in the U.S. are:
The administrative cost of the insurance process itself
Professional liability costs

Слайд 42© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The High Cost of Health Care
Efforts at Cost Containment
Efforts

to curb soaring health care costs cover a broad spectrum...
from slowing hospital construction
to reducing length of hospital stays, and
increasing copayments and deductibles for insured employees and Medicare recipients.

Слайд 43© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The High Cost of Health Care - Cost Containment
One

example of cost containment is the prospective payment system (PPS) that the federal government implemented.
The purpose of the PPS was to change the behavior of health care providers by changing incentives under which care is provided and reimbursed.

Слайд 44© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The High Cost of Health Care - Cost Containment
PPS

(continued)
Prospective payment means knowing the amount of payment in advance.
PPS uses diagnosis related groups (DRGs) as a basis for reimbursement.
Patients are classified according to the principal diagnosis, secondary diagnosis, sex, age, and surgical procedures.

Слайд 45© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth


Слайд 46© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The High Cost of Health Care - Cost Containment
PPS

(continued)
There are 23 categories and a total of 490 DRGs.
One consequence of PPS has been an increased focus on outpatient services.

Слайд 47© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The High Cost of Health Care
Equity and Access as

Issues in Health Care
Public opinion polls in the U.S. reveal that most people believe all citizens are entitled to access to health care...
but debate continues about the acceptable level of health care and what benefits should be included.

Слайд 48© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
The High Cost of Health Care – Equity and

Access

Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Health
A recent report released by DHHS shows significant improvements in the health of racial and ethnic minorities but also indicates that important disparities in health persist.


Слайд 49© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Health Care Reform in the United States
Almost all industrialized

countries except the U.S. have national health care programs.
In these systems, coverage is generally universal and uniform and costs are paid entirely from tax revenues or by some combination of individual and employer premiums and government subsidization.

Слайд 50© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Health Care Reform in the United States
Health care reform

in the U.S. raises a formidable list of issues including:
Overall cost containment
Universal access
Emphasis on prevention
Reduction in administrative superstructure and costs

Слайд 51© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Health Care Reform in the United States
While the government

remains undecided on what kind of health care system is needed or how to pay for it, health care reform is evolving at an accelerating rate without legislation.

Слайд 52© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Nutrition as a Component of Health Care Reform
Many believe

that nutrition services are the cornerstone of cost-effective prevention and are essential to halting the spiraling cost of health care.

Слайд 53© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Nutrition as a Component of Health Care Reform
The American

Dietetic Association (ADA) has urged that nutrition services be included in any health care reform legislation.
Registered dietitians also need to be recognized as the nutrition experts of the health care team.

Слайд 54© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Nutrition as a Component of Health Care Reform
Cost-Effectiveness of

Nutrition Services
ADA encourages all of its practitioners to document the cost-effectiveness of nutrition services.
Cost-effectiveness studies compare the costs of providing health care against a desirable change in patient health outcomes.

Слайд 55© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth


Слайд 56© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Nutrition as a Component of Health Care Reform
Cost-Effectiveness (continued)
Effective

nutrition therapy can produce economic benefits as a result of altered food habits and risk factors.
Practice guidelines or protocols that clearly specify appropriate care and acceptable limits of care for each disease state or condition are important to enhance the quality, efficiency, and effectiveness of the health care system.

Слайд 57© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Nutrition as a Component of Health Care Reform
Care delivered

according to a protocol has been linked with positive outcomes for the client.
Examples of outcomes include:
Measure of control (serum lipid profiles)
Quality of life
Dietary intake
Patient satisfaction

Слайд 58© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Measurable Outcomes of Nutrition Intervention


Слайд 59© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Nutrition as a Component of Health Care Reform
Developing standardized

protocols of care for nutrition intervention is considered a must for achieving payment for nutrition services and expanding current levels of third-party reimbursement.

Слайд 60© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
Medical Nutrition Therapy and Medicare Reform
The ADA believes that

reimbursement for nutrition services through Medicare and Medicaid is inadequate.
ADA supports the inclusion of medical nutrition therapy as a covered benefit in all types of health care delivery.

On the Horizon: Changes in Health Care and Its

Delivery

The future offers much that is positive for the profession of dietetics.
Yet to be achieved are the effective provision and allocation of resources, such as nutrition services as part of preventive care.


Слайд 72© 2006 Thomson-Wadsworth
On the Horizon: Changes in Health Care and Its

Delivery

A coordinated strategy for health care, political will, and active collaboration of both health care professionals and consumers of health care services will be required to achieve this goal.
Health care reform for the U.S. is certain, but the exact nature of the reform will continue to evolve.
