most contracts contain multiple reimbursement methodologies; and prices for the same service vary significantly within and across hospitals. @AJMC_Journal @HilltopInstitut @UMBC #hospitals #prices #contracting (3/3)

Together with @MorganeMouslim, we analyzed contracts for 10 hospitals across the country. Key takeaways: hospitals negotiate contracts with many payers; contract structure differs significantly across payers within a hospital; (2/3)

The hospital price transparency rule has been in effect for 3 years. While compliance appears to be rising, some of these new data files can shed light on an important - and largely unexamined - facet of our health financing system: hospital-insurer contracting. (1/3)

In our next #JournalClub mtg on, “#Hospital & Regional Characteristics Associated W/ Emergency Department Facility Fee Cash Pricing,” authors @morghend & @MorganeMouslim of @UMBC will join host @MScottGerber for discussion of their paper. Tune in tomorrow. bit.ly/3RxQO57

What correlates with higher emergency room facility fees for self-pay patients? For-profit status and larger bed size, for starters. Read our (@MorganeMouslim) new study in @Health_Affairs for full story @UMBC @HilltopInstitut healthaffairs.org/doi/abs/10.137…

In their new blog, @MorganeMouslim + @morghend from @JohnsHopkinsEPI + @UMBC discuss how availability of discounted cash price data should also inform policy efforts regarding hospital pricing for the uninsured and underinsured. bit.ly/3CJum10

@MorganeMouslim Thanks @MorganeMouslim! The scores have been live in Maryland since October 2019, and the scores currently cover over 400,000 individuals.

@morghend, I believe this is already being used to some extent (and with promising early results) in Maryland, is that correct?

Great work by @morghend and team who proposed and validated a #claims-based #prediction model which accurately flags patients at risk of an avoidable hospital event @HSR_HRET @HilltopInstitut @UMBC onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…

Just out in HSR: with colleagues at @HilltopInstitut and the MDPCP, we document the development and validation of a near-to-real time, large scale predictive model for Medicare beneficiaries in Maryland @UMBC @HSR_HRET #claims #machinelearning #health onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…

@MorganeMouslim and I explore some of the challenges facing @CMSGov's new hospital price transparency regulation in our new piece @UMBC @ConversationUS #healthcare #price #transparency

Recently, @MorganeMouslim and I teamed up with @sarahkliff, @jshkatz, and @adamplayford from @nytimes to do a deep-dive on hospital pricing. The story (linked below) was released a few days ago. #hospital #price #transparency nytimes.com/interactive/20…

@mhshospitals Per 45 CFR 180, as of 1/1/21 all hospitals are supposed to publish standard charges, which include the payer-specific negotiated rates for all items and services. I can't find them on your website - can you please direct me to them? @CMSGov @SeemaCMS

@BJC_HealthCare Per 45 CFR 180.50, all hospitals are supposed to publish standard charges, which are the payer-specific negotiated rates for all items and services. I can't find them on your website - can you please direct me to them? @CMSGov @SeemaCMS
