摘要 | This report examines prices that private health plans paid for high-volume inpatient hospital services, outpatient hospital services, and physician and other professional services, finding significant price variation for every service. For selected inpatient services with quality measures available, the research team found no variation in hospital quality corresponding to differences in price. Medicaid rates were consistently lower than the prices private payers paid for both inpatient services and physician and professional services. Private payer prices generally were higher than Medicare rates and did not correlate with Medicare's cost-based prices. The report also estimates the potential impacts of alternative models to reduce or eliminate the current level of price variation. |
