U.S. Department of Health and Human Services [HHS]
June 6, 2018
"This request for information solicits public comment ... on how to structure a workgroup, or other form of interaction between the Department and such participants in the healthcare industry, in order to best support communication and understanding between these parties that will spur investment, increase competition, accelerate innovation, and allow capital investment in the health care sector to have a more significant impact on the health and wellbeing of Americans. HHS also seeks comment more broadly on opportunities for increased engagement and dialogue between HHS and those focused on innovating and investing in the health care industry."

"The healthcare industry is used to a handful of states being at the forefront of innovation -- for example, many benefit design concepts are created in California and developments in Florida or New York often presage laws elsewhere. Perhaps surprisingly, many of the more recent big developments have come out of unexpected places -- states like Arkansas, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Utah. Much of this innovation is directly related to healthcare reform and the next step in cost control[.]"

The Health Care Blog

"Even as the industry changes the way it does business, one critical aspect of change is missing. The faces are all the same. The same large systems that dominated the fee for service world seem poised to dominate the shared savings world, and the same insurers that dominated the traditional employer-based insurance market stand ready to dominate exchanges. Value might be created when old businesses play by new rules, but even more value is created when new players are free to enter and perhaps even break the rules."

"An integrated system for insurance operations delivers a single solution across all business units, thereby enabling smooth and synchronised process flow across the entire business.... Health insurers worldwide have started to leverage available data innovatively for a wider range of purposes, including sales, underwriting, claims and fraud detection.... Innovation in the global healthcare market is not just restricted to the technology itself, but expands into developing new health insurance products and new ways of distributing insurance products by leveraging technology, mainly mobile phones."

The Institute for HealthCare Consumerism [IHCC]
May 8, 2014
"Fixed expenses, reduced administration and greater choice for employees and their families provide distinct advantages. Yet futurists envision innovation that not only matches individual needs and incentives with the best solution but also creates marketplace transformation that generates even greater consumer advantage. When educated health care consumers begin to force market changes and private exchanges expose costs and create more competition, health systems will be compelled to compete on price. The effect can finally begin to lower the nation's health care costs."

National Alliance of Healthcare Purchaser Coalitions
Feb. 3, 2021
15 pages. "Recommendations for employers [include]: [1] Explore integrated behavioral health models that have a single access point for mental health services, consolidating diverse services to holistically treat patients. [2] Ease delivery of care by working directly with provider groups to eliminate the need for several vendors. [3] Review current networks to ensure that high-quality physicians are promoted and behavioral health is integrated. [4] Address waste, fraud and abuse by requiring carriers to provide an action plan to ensure accountability.[5] Request effective metrics that evaluate provider performance."

American Journal of Managed Care
Aug. 8, 2016
"Under the ACA, states can use 1332 Medicaid waivers starting in 2017 to tinker with some of the law's core provisions, including the individual mandate, employer penalties, rules governing exchanges and covered benefits, as well as premium tax credits. However, the GAO report states that as a practical matter, proposals cannot upend the need for the IRS and the federal exchange, HealthCare.gov, to administer a consistent program across states, one that does not unduly burden the government to make state-specific IT changes, for example."

Healthcare Payer News

"The ACA forced issuers working with public marketplaces to start development based on little more than their own expectations of the interaction. These are organizations that thrive on actuarial charts; they do not typically undertake projects without knowing each and every requirement and milestone ahead of time. But in the world of the ACA, new information continues to come out every day, even now."
