Overview of the U.S. Health Care System OU Pre-med Club/AMSA September 27, 2006

Health Insurance Coverage of the Non-Elderly Population, 2003

Employer-sponsored Insurance  Offered by employers as part of benefits package  Administered by private insurance companies (for-profit and non-profit)  Employer pays bulk of premium & employee pays remainder  Erosion of employer-sponsored insurance in recent years

Individual Insurance  Purchased directly by people who do not get coverage through their employers  Non-group (individual) plans ◊Premiums based on individual health risk  More expensive per person compared to employer-sponsored insurance

Medicare  Covers the elderly (ages 65 and older) and non- elderly with disabilities  Administered by the federal government (essentially a single-payer system … more on this in the future)  Financed through: ◊Federal income taxes ◊Payroll taxes on employers and employees ◊Out-of-pocket payments by enrollees

Medicare  Four parts: ◊Part A – Hospital insurance ◊Part B – Supplemental insurance ◊Part C – Managed care ◊Part D – Prescription drugs  Significant coverage gaps - most enrollees obtain supplemental, private insurance  Growth in the aging population and increased technology presents challenges for the future

Medicaid  Covers certain low-income individuals (pregnant, children, elderly, disabled) ◊Not every poor person is covered!  Administered by state governments  Financed jointly by the state and federal governments  Benefits are fairly comprehensive, but many providers won’t take care of Medicaid patients ◊Low reimbursement rates

State Children’s Health Insurance Program (S-CHIP)  Supplements Medicaid by covering low-income children who are ineligible for Medicaid  Administered and financed similarly to Medicaid  Similar problems to Medicaid: ◊Low reimbursement rates → some providers refuse to accept S-CHIP ◊Under-enrollment ◊Eligibility varies by specific populations and states

Other Public Insurance Programs  Veterans Health Administration ◊Health benefits plan available to all veterans ◊Services delivered through VA health care facilities ◊Financed by the federal government  Native American Indian Health Service
