| 10 | Briefing | Health Information Technology and Its Future: More Than the Money
, 6/20/2008
Health information technology (IT) offers the potential to save lives, improve efficiency and increase the overall quality of our health care delivery system. Can it also save money? Not by itself, says a recent report from the Congressional Budget Office. This briefing, cosponsored by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, considered the idea that adoption of health information technology is about much more than saving money.
|
| 10 | Briefing | Comparative Effectiveness: Can We Get Better Health Value for the Dollars We Spend?, 4/4/2008
Comparative effectiveness research holds out the tantalizing prospect of making it easier for patients and their doctors to choose the best treatment. Who should conduct such research -- government, the private sector or some combination? Who should decide which interventions to evaluate? Who will pay for it? This briefing, cosponsored by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, addressed these and related questions.
|
| 10 | Briefing | Health Information Technology and Privacy: Is There a Path to Consensus?
, 2/29/2008
Why do Americans trust information technology when they do their banking, make airline reservations, pay their bills, and file their tax returns, but not to access their medical information electronically? Some believe that technology poses a serious threat to Americans’ medical privacy rights; such people would add strict privacy protections to any health IT legislation. Others assert that the privacy risks are inconsequential, and that all health care providers should use electronic health records and participate in health information exchange networks. What’s the best way to balance the move to electronic health records and other health IT applications against the need to protect the privacy of individuals’ medical histories? This briefing, cosponsored with the Divided We Fail Initiative, addressed these and related questions.
|
| 10 | Briefing | HEALTH INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY: Here, Now and Tomorrow, 9/16/2005
Wider use of health information technology has been touted as one way to improve the quality of care and reduce medical errors, while reducing the continued rapid growth of health care spending. Providers across the country are already adopting new health IT systems, and many patients have welcomed the trend. What are the latest developments in private-sector systems linking providers across different health care settings? What should the federal government’s role be in identifying barriers and opportunities for the health IT systems, in the face of privacy and security concerns? What are analysts saying about projected costs and savings associated with the implementation and widespread use of electronic medical records?
|
| 10 | Briefing | MAKING THE CONNECTION: Helping Health Care Providers Collaborate Via Health Information Networks
, 5/9/2005
Health care information about individual patients is one of the least automated aspects of the U.S. economy. Promoting greater access to secure, easily shared electronic health records for all Americans has strong support from the Administration and both parties in Congress. What are the latest practical approaches being implemented in the field today to connect disparate pieces of our vast health care sectors for information sharing? What is necessary to achieve broad data exchange while protecting patient privacy and improving consumer choice and control?

| 10 | Issue Brief | Linking Providers Via Health Information Networks, 12/21/2006
As many as 98,000 Americans die each year due to preventable medical mistakes. Health information technology could help reduce mistakes, but adoption by health care providers has been slow. This issue brief describes what's needed to link providers via information networks, and what barriers must be overcome. Funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. (Adobe Acrobat PDF: 308 kb)
|
| 9 | Briefing | Pay-for-Performance: Taking Health Care Quality Improvement to the Next Level, 7/15/2005
Pay-for-performance programs have been touted by some as a way to improve the overall quality of care provided to patients, while being criticized by others who fear unintended consequences in attempting to change physician behavior. Both the private and public sector are experimenting with incorporating pay-for-performance into a number of areas of reimbursement policy. In this Alliance for Health Reform and Robert Wood Johnson Foundation briefing, the issues and challenges surrounding pay-for-performance were discussed.

| 8 | Briefing | Reforming the Health Care Delivery System: A Team Approach, 3/27/2009
There is an emerging consensus that health reform must encompass ways to improve quality and value in the system, and one of the prime targets for reform is the way care is delivered. Some health care organizations have combined thoughtful use of technology and better use of personnel to improve preventive care and treatment of chronic disease, obtain better outcomes, and offer additional job satisfaction to their health care workforce. This briefing, sponsored by the Alliance, Kaiser Permanente and the AFL-CIO, explored ways to enhance a team approach to care.
|
| 8 | Briefing | Health Legislation 2007-2008: What's Possible?, 12/13/2006
Suddenly, Capitol Hill is talking about health issues again. Incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi promises that Democrats will roll back the prohibition against the federal government negotiating drug prices on behalf of Medicare beneficiaries. (A Kaiser Family Foundation poll released today found broad bipartisan support for this idea.) Incoming Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says one of his three top priorities will be more funding for stem cell research. Others want to revisit the importation of prescription drugs from Canada. Additionally, the 110th Congress will consider whether to continue the State Children’s Health Insurance Program in its present form.

| 8 | Briefing | TOWARD A HIGH PERFORMANCE HEALTH SYSTEM: Public-Private Efforts to Make Health Care Safer and More Effective, 10/3/2005
It is clear that by many measures, Americans are not receiving commensurate value for the health care dollars they spend. Is it possible to simultaneously improve health coverage and quality, while generating savings for health care consumers, employers, government and health care providers? What are the characteristics of a high performance health system? What realistic steps does the private sector need to take, contrasted with government bodies, to move the U.S. toward such a system?

| 8 | Issue Brief | Rural Health and Health Reform, 1/6/2010
Health care delivery poses unique challenges in rural communities. Provider shortages are particularly acute. Unemployment rates are higher and private insurance rates are lower in rural areas than elsewhere. Do the health reform bills in Congress adequately address the needs of rural areas? A new issue brief from the Alliance for Health Reform offers some insights. Written by Deanna Okrent, Alliance senior health policy associate, and supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
