Medicaid Patients in States with Relatively Higher Medicaid Reimbursement Are More Likely to Receive Imaging

A new Harvey L. Neiman Health Policy Institute study found that Medicaid patients residing in states with higher Medicaid reimbursement were more likely to receive medical imaging. However, for those who underwent imaging, the number of imaging exams they received did not vary with reimbursement. This study, published in the Journal of the American College of Radiology, was based on nearly 49 million Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) beneficiaries 0-64 years of age in 2019.

New Study Shows Mobile Mammography Reach is Highest in Underserved Groups with Low Breast Cancer Screening Adherence

A recent study by the Harvey L. Neiman Health Policy Institute demonstrates that mobile mammography is generally used by women otherwise unlikely to be screened, and thus is complementary to facility-based mammography rather than a substitute for it. Hence, mobile mammography could feasibly increase breast cancer screening rates, especially in traditionally underserved communities. This study, published in Clinical Breast Cancer, was based on 2.6 million women with Medicare fee-for-service insurance during the 2004-2021 period.

Radiologists are Participating in Less Resident Training as Workloads Increase, New Study Shows

According to new research from the Harvey L. Neiman Health Policy Institute, radiologists who teach residents are spending significantly less time each year in that teaching role. The study, published today in the Journal of The American College of Radiology, tracked the workload of 35,595 radiologists in Medicare Part B claims data from 2008 to 2020. As a percentage of total clinical workload measured in relative value units, work that involved resident training dropped from 35.3% in 2008 to 26.3% in 2019. In 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic hit the U.S., the teaching share of work dropped further to 24.5%.
