New partnership will "fundamentally restructure" Colorado health care


Aiming to improve the value of health care for Colorado employees, the Colorado Purchasing Alliance (CPA), an affiliate of the Colorado Business Group on Health, is partnering with the national Purchaser Business Group for Health (PBGH) to negotiate health care contracts with select hospitals and providers in the state on behalf of employers.
Eleven state employers have so far signed letters of intent to participate in the initiative, including the State of Colorado and the City of Denver.
 
 
CPA President Robert Smith says the effort is the result of inconsistencies in state health care costs and the value of services provided. He says the overutilization of unnecessary or low-value services is a principal driver of health care costs in the state. This partnership’s central goal, he says, is to have Colorado providers compete for contracts based on the value of their care. ....

What a difference a year makes in Colorado's case for a public option plan


What a difference a year makes in Colorado’s case for a public option plan
Before the pandemic, Colorado looked set to become the second state to pass what s known as a public option health insurance plan, which would have forced hospitals that lawmakers said were raking in obscene profits to accept lower payments. But when covid-19 struck, legislators hit pause.
Now, after a year of much public lionizing of doctors and other health professionals on the front lines of the covid fight, it s a lot harder to make the case hospitals are fleecing patients.
It is much more difficult now that we have this narrative of the health care heroes, said Sarah McAfee, director of communications for the Center for Health Progress, a Denver-based health advocacy organization that pushed for the public option. Part of this is separating the two: The people who are providing the health care are not the same as the corporations who are focused on the bottom line. ....

Colorado's case for public insurance plan complicated by COVID


DENVER

Physician, heal thyself


The American health-care system is vastly more expensive than any other country’s, but our results are not vastly better.
The Affordable Care Act attempted to begin untangling the factors that contribute to this untenable situation. While it certainly has improved things like access to care and coverage of pre-existing conditions, the cost of care is still so high that more government intervention routinely pops up as the only remaining solution. Think “BernieCare” or a public health insurance option.
The health-care conundrum is too big to point at any single contributor, but hospitals routinely fight perceptions, if not outright evidence, of charging too much — especially to the privately insured. ....
