Medicaid drug selection committees often mismanage COI policies, researchers say

2013-02-15 16:23:00 (читать в оригинале)

The current policies to manage conflicts of interest among Medicaid drug selection committees are inconsistent, mismanaged and often are not transparent, according to a report published in JAMA.“Pharmaceutical companies promote their products by offering gifts, consultation fees, and honoraria to individual practitioners and researchers,” the researchers wrote. “These practices can have an impact on the therapeutic decision making because they skew the body of scientific evidence in favor of newer, more expensive, on-patent drugs.”

2013-02-15 16:23:00 (читать в оригинале)

Hospitals that provide uncompensated care in states that do not offer expanded Medicaid access may face an additional burden in 2014 as a result of cuts to Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, according to a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine.U.S. hospitals that are paid funds from the Medicare and Medicaid disproportionate share (DSH) will receive a 75% across the board cut to the DSH under the Affordable Care Act. However, if their state does not expand Medicaid access, who becomes covered in each state will vary widely, stated John A. Graves, PhD, in a news release.

CBO lowers estimate for 10-year freeze of payments under the SGR

2013-02-15 16:23:00 (читать в оригинале)

The Congressional Budget Office recently released its Budget and Economic Outlook: Fiscal Years 2013 to 2023, which lowered the estimate to hold current payment rates under the sustainable growth rate for 10 years from $243.7 billion to $138 billion. “We welcome the news from the [Congressional Budget Office] CBO that the cost of permanently replacing the flawed Medicare physician payment formula, known as [sustainable growth rate] SGR, has decreased dramatically,” AMA President Jeremy A. Lazarus, MD, stated in an AMA press release. “The new cost of freezing payments for 10 years is $138 billion, more than $100 billion less than the previous projection. The rate of Medicare spending growth declined compared to historical trends, and spending for physician services affected by the SGR is projected to be far less than previously estimated.”

2013-02-15 16:23:00 (читать в оригинале)

PHOENIX – Treatment with bepotastine 1.5% solution for allergic conjunctivitis was shown to relieve allergic rhinitis symptoms as well, according to a case report presented in a poster here at Academy 2012.Agustin L. Gonzalez, OD, stated in his poster that drainage through the nasolacrimal system of agents applied ocularly is usually considered as a potential route for systemic toxicity. However, Gonzalez shows in this case report a “coincidentally beneficial side effect secondary to the management of allergic symptoms by the use of topical bepotastine 1.5% ophthalmic solution.”
