Book Description
The Health Care and Education Affordability Reconciliation Act of 2010 makes major changes to Medicare Advantage (MA) payment policies. Overall, payments to MA plans will be reduced from the current national average of 113 percent of local fee-for-service (FFS) costs to a new average of 101 percent of FFS costs. The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has estimated that the new polices will reduce Medicare spending by $132 billion over 10 years. The new policies will set county payment benchmarks for MA plans at 115 percent, 107.5 percent, 100 percent, and 95 percent of local FFS costs depending of the relative level of FFS costs in the county. The MA plan rebate policy will be reduced from the current level of 75 percent. A new program of plan performance-based payments will be available to certain plans and will increase benchmarks and rebates to plans with high performance scores. This issue brief presents analysis, sing data from 2009, of the impact of these new policies on payments on private plans across the nation.

Book Description
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“ACA”), as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, is signature legislation that will fundamentally change the health care sector of the United States. One of the ACA's major reforms changes the way in which Medicare pays health care providers and rewards providers for providing high quality care.Value-based purchasing is a major strategy for reducing the escalation of Medicare expenditures. The theory of value-based purchasing is to change the basis of payment for services from a formula based on events and resources used in an episode of care to a formula based on performance measured by specific quality measures.This Article reviews the development of value-based purchasing in the Medicare program since its inception. The Article then explains how the ACA expands and enhances value-based purchasing from only inpatient hospitals to physicians and other providers. Then the Article analyzes what the future implications of value-based purchasing will be for the U.S. health care industry.
