Building a hospital information system: design considerations based on results from a Europe-wide vendor selection process. (1/42)

A number of research and development projects in the U.S. and in Europe have shown that novel technologies can open significant perspectives for hospital information systems (HIS). The selection of software products for a HIS, however, is still nontrivial. Generalist vendors promise a broad scope of functionality and integration, while specialist vendors promise elaborated and highly adapted functionality. In 1997, the university hospital Marburg, a 1,250 bed teaching hospital, decided to introduce a new large-scale HIS. The objectives of the project included support of clinical workflows, cost effectiveness and a maximum standard of medical care. In 1997/98 a formal Europe-wide vendor contest was performed. 15 vendors, including several from the U.S., participated. Systems were checked against the hospital's objectives, functionality, and technological criteria. One of the results of both technology and market assessment was the identification of fundamental technological and design aspects strongly influencing functionality and flexibility.  (+info)

125I-alpha-conotoxin MII identifies a novel nicotinic acetylcholine receptor population in mouse brain. (2/42)

alpha-Conotoxin MII (CtxMII), a peptide toxin from the venom of the predatory cone snail Conus magus, displays an unusual nicotinic pharmacology. Specific binding of a radioiodinated derivative ((125)I-alpha-CtxMII) was identified in brain region homogenates and tissue sections. Quantitative autoradiography indicated that (125)I-alpha-CtxMII binding sites have an unique pharmacological profile and distribution in mouse brain, being largely confined to the superficial layers of the superior colliculus, nigrostriatal pathway, optic tract, olivary pretectal, and mediolateral and dorsolateral geniculate nuclei. Expression of alpha-CtxMII binding sites in the nigrostriatal pathway, combined with evidence for alpha-CtxMII-sensitivity of nicotine-induced [(3)H]dopamine release in rodent striatal preparations indicates that (125)I-alpha-CtxMII binding nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are likely to be physiologically important. Unlabeled alpha-CtxMII potently (K(i) < 3 nM) competed for a subset of [(3)H]epibatidine binding sites in mouse brain homogenates, but weakly (IC(50) > 10 microM) interacted with (125)I-alpha-bungarotoxin and (-)-[(3)H]nicotine binding sites, confirming this compound's novel nicotinic pharmacology. Quantitative autoradiography revealed that alpha-CtxMII binds with high affinity at a subset of [(3)H]epibatidine binding sites with relatively low cytisine affinity ("cytisine-resistant" sites), resolving [(3)H]epibatidine binding into three different populations, each probably corresponding to a receptor subtype. The majority population seems to correspond to that which binds nicotine and cytisine with high affinity ("cytisine-sensitive" sites). Comparison of the cytisine-resistant population's distribution with that of alpha3 subunit mRNA expression suggests that the fractions both more and less sensitive to alpha-CtxMII probably contain the alpha3 subunit, perhaps in combination with different beta subunits.  (+info)

Reforming Medicare: impacts on federal spending and choice of health plans. (3/42)

The rising cost of Medicare and well-documented problems plaguing Medicare+Choice (M+C) have increased interest in "reforming" the program. To improve efficiency, most reform proposals would rely on competitive bidding to establish payments to M+C plans. At the same time, beneficiaries would be given financial incentives to select low-cost M+C plans. A major unknown is the extent to which Medicare reforms would generate federal budgetary savings. To examine this issue, we develop three illustrative Medicare reform options that differ greatly in how Medicare would establish its payments to plans. Our results highlight the fact that Medicare should expect modest savings from reforming the program. However, other goals of reform, such as establishing more efficient payments to plans, would be achieved.  (+info)

Competitive bidding for interventional cardiology supplies: lessons learned during round 2. (4/42)

OBJECTIVE: To assess the magnitude of savings and develop concepts for "best strategies" in reducing costs in the purchasing of high-technology, high-cost materials used in coronary interventions and electrophysiologic treatments. STUDY DESIGN: Observational experience in competitive bidding for defibrillators, pacemakers, coronary stents, and coronary balloon catheters at a large, midwestern, publicly owned, academic cardiovascular center. METHODS: Iterative negotiation following a broad request for proposal sent to a diverse group of vending organizations in high-technology areas of cardiology. Product costs and volume usage were assessed before and after the process to estimate annualized cost reduction achieved. RESULTS: Using a combination of identification of preferred vendors; consignment of supplies; and collaborative consensus among physicians, administration, materials management, purchasing, and vendors, an annualized savings of more than $1.3 million was achieved. CONCLUSIONS: Aggressive, collaborative, fair, and competitive bidding for high-cost products used for coronary interventions and electrophysiologic treatments leads to substantial cost savings and can promote provider-industry partnerships that further enhance product use, provision, and tracking.  (+info)

Having it all: national benefit equity and local payment parity in Medicare. (5/42)

The Medicare Payment Advisory Commission (MedPAC) has identified two important problems with the Medicare+Choice (M+C) program: nationwide geographic inequity in government-financed benefits, and unequal government payments for M+C plans versus fee-for-service (FFS) Medicare in the same market area. MedPAC concludes that both problems cannot be solved simultaneously. We argue that both problems could be solved if Congress discontinued its policy of underwriting the cost of FFS Medicare. Instead, Congress should define a national entitlement benefit package and have all health plans submit bids on the package in each market area. The government's premium contribution should be equal to the lowest bid submitted by a qualified health plan in each market area. The contribution could be adjusted for health risk, the special obligations of FFS Medicare, and welfare enhancements associated with FFS Medicare that are valued by both beneficiaries and taxpayers but unrelated to beneficiaries' health status.  (+info)

Obstacles to employers' pursuit of health care quality. (6/42)

Large employers' roles in improving health care quality are shifting away from value-based purchasing toward direct efforts to improve health care delivery within local markets. Although most large employers adopted the tools required for value-based purchasing, inadequate information on quality has frustrated employers and limited their ability to make choices based on quality. More recent quality initiatives aimed at directly improving local health delivery systems may be limited to specific markets where the largest employers can exert substantial influence.  (+info)

The benefits divide: health care purchasing in retail versus other sectors. (7/42)

This paper is the first to compare health care purchasing in the retail versus other sectors of the Fortune 500. Employing millions of low-wage workers, the retail sector is the largest employer of uninsured workers in the economy. We found that retail companies are using the same competitive bidding process that other companies use to obtain a given level of coverage for the lowest possible cost. However, they are more price oriented than other Fortune 500 companies are. The most striking disparity lies in the nearly fivefold difference in offer rates for health care coverage. This shows that the economy's bifurcation in health benefits extends even to the nation's largest companies.  (+info)

Medicaid managed care payment methods and capitation rates in 2001. (8/42)

We present results from a survey of Medicaid managed care payment methods and rates in 2001 for AFDC/TANF and poverty-related Medicaid populations, updating a similar survey of 1998 rates. Rates were adjusted for differences in age-sex groupings, maternity payments, and service carve-outs. A twofold variation in Medicaid capitation rates remains, although there was a change in the composition of states at the top and bottom. The data also show that the growth in Medicaid capitation rates between 1998 and 2001 averaged 18 percent, considerably more than the increase in Medicare+Choice rates.  (+info)

"Competitive bidding in a healthcare context refers to the process of soliciting and awarding contracts for the provision of goods or services, such as medical equipment or home health care, through a competitive bid system that aims to ensure quality, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness."

"Competitive bidding" is not a medical term, but rather a business or procurement concept that can be applied in various industries, including healthcare. In the context of healthcare, competitive bidding typically refers to a process where healthcare providers or suppliers submit bids to provide goods or services to a payer, such as a government agency or insurance company, at the lowest possible price.

The goal of competitive bidding is to promote cost savings and efficiency in the delivery of healthcare services. For example, Medicare uses a competitive bidding program for certain medical equipment and supplies, such as wheelchairs and oxygen equipment, where suppliers submit bids and are awarded contracts based on their ability to provide high-quality items at the lowest price.

However, it's important to note that while competitive bidding can lead to cost savings, it may also have unintended consequences, such as reducing provider participation or limiting access to certain services in some areas. Therefore, it is essential to balance cost savings with quality and access considerations when implementing competitive bidding programs in healthcare.

The act of acquiring goods, services, and facilities by a hospital's administrative staff, typically involving the selection, negotiation, and procurement of medical supplies, equipment, and contracted services to support patient care and operations while adhering to ethical standards, legal regulations, and cost-effective practices.

I'm sorry for any confusion, but "Purchasing, Hospital" is not a recognized medical term or concept. It seems that "purchasing" in this context might be referring to the process or department within a hospital responsible for acquiring goods, services, and equipment. This function is essential for the efficient and cost-effective operation of a hospital. However, without more specific context, it's challenging to provide a precise definition. If you have a particular aspect of hospital purchasing that you'd like to understand better, I'd be happy to help clarify if I can.

'Durable Medical Equipment' (DME) refers to medically necessary devices that are primarily and used to serve a medical purpose, can withstand repeated use, and are prescribed for use at home due to an illness or injury, typically covered under healthcare insurance plans.

Durable Medical Equipment (DME) is defined in the medical field as medical equipment that is:

1. Durable: able to withstand repeated use.
2. Primarily and customarily used for a medical purpose: intended to be used for a medical reason and not for comfort or convenience.
3. Generally not useful to a person in the absence of an illness or injury: not typically used by people who are healthy.
4. Prescribed by a physician: recommended by a doctor to treat a specific medical condition or illness.

Examples of DME include wheelchairs, hospital beds, walkers, and oxygen concentrators. These items are designed to assist individuals with injuries or chronic conditions in performing activities of daily living and improving their quality of life. DME is typically covered by health insurance plans, including Medicare and Medicaid, with a doctor's prescription.

"Medical Indigency refers to the financial inability of an individual to pay for necessary medical care, treatments or services, often due to lack of sufficient resources or insurance coverage."

Medical indigence is a term used to describe a person's inability to pay for necessary medical care due to financial constraints. This can occur when an individual lacks sufficient health insurance coverage, has limited financial resources, or both. In many cases, medical indigence can lead to delayed or avoided medical treatment, which can result in more severe health conditions and higher healthcare costs in the long run.

In some jurisdictions, laws have been enacted to provide relief for medically indigent individuals by requiring hospitals or healthcare providers to provide care regardless of a patient's ability to pay. These programs are often funded through a combination of government funding, hospital funds, and charitable donations. The goal of these programs is to ensure that all individuals have access to necessary medical care, regardless of their financial situation.

'Medicare Part B' is a federal health insurance program that covers medically necessary outpatient services, preventive care, and durable medical equipment for eligible individuals aged 65 and above, or those with certain disabilities or end-stage renal disease.

Medicare Part B is the component of Medicare, a federal health insurance program in the United States, that covers medically necessary outpatient services and preventive services. These services include doctor visits, laboratory tests, diagnostic imaging, durable medical equipment, mental health services, ambulance services, and some home health care services.

Medicare Part B also covers certain preventive services such as cancer screenings, vaccinations, and wellness visits to help maintain an individual's health and prevent illnesses or diseases from getting worse. It is financed through a combination of monthly premiums paid by enrollees and funds from the federal government's general revenue. Enrollment in Medicare Part B is voluntary, but there are penalties for not enrolling when first eligible, unless an individual has creditable coverage from another source.
