Ageing and Population Health Mgmt
- The problems of sustainability are not due to
ageing alone, but to a lack of coherence in using
different policy tools (funding, organization,
regulation of professions, governance of R&D)
- Political and professional problems in defining
essential and appropriate care (fight against
«waste»)
- Acute care absorbs excessive resources with little
gains in terms of quality-adjusted life expectancy
- Inappropriate incentives and lack of organization
models in primary care to deal with chronic
illnesses (need for a pop health mgmt

Chronic Care and Population Health Mgmt
- Chronic patients require tailored models of care
and new expertise (research and education) to
cope with their specific needs (e.g. poly-
pharmacy)
- The financing and the organization of services
should rely more on vertically integrated models
linking primary, intermediate and secondary
care
- More emphasis is required on prevention
(primary and secondary) with more reliance on
self-care
- Need to avoid excessive medicalization (eg, is

Reforms and Population Health Mgmt
To implement this re-organisation some «new»
ideas have been collected and labelled «Pop Health
Mgmt»:
- central role of patients (education, self-care);
- performance targets in terms of health outcomes
(not volumes) to design part of the payments;
- payment mechanisms based more on capitation
(not fee for services or activity based);
- specific incentives for primary care
organizations and for vertical integration;
- budgetary solutions to integrate health and
social care for a given area (mostly for public

McDonough Medicare for all – Millb Quart 2019
George Santayana’s famous quote—“Those who
cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat
it”—comes to mind when considering prospects for a
“Medicare for All” or single-payer health system
revolution. There is history here demanding attention
that goes beyond President Harry Truman’s ill-fated
effort in the late 1940s.
Since 1994, four states have taken a cold, hard, and
serious look at single payer and backed off, three via
voter ballot initiatives and one by legislation.
Collectively, they offer a compelling “starter’s
package” of case studies on Medicare for All.

McDonough Medicare for all – California 1994
Voters rejected Proposition 186 — the California
Health Security Act—by 73% to 27%.
The California initiative would have been financed
by new taxes on employers, individuals, and
tobacco products.
Kaiser Family Foundation concluded that the defeat
was “largely the result of voters’ attitudes against
‘big government’ and higher taxes
Leading opponents included insurance companies,
business organizations, and hospitals who outspent
proponents by $9 million to $2.7 million.

McDonough Medicare for all – Oregon 2002
Voters rejected Measure 23 — the Healthcare
Finance Plan Amendment — by 78.5% to 21.5%
The constitutional amendment would have been
funded by progressive income taxes on individuals
of up to 8% and by payroll taxes on employers
from 3% to 11.5%.
Opponents included insurers, businesses, the state
AFL-CIO, hospitals, and nurses, who outspent
proponents by an estimated $1.2 million to $95,000
— most of the latter being spent on signature
gathering.

McDonough Medicare for all – Colorado 2016
Voters rejected Amendment 26 — Colorado Care
— by 78.8% to 21.3%.
The system was to have been funded by a new
10% payroll tax split between employers and
workers and by a new 10% tax on all
nonpayroll income.
Supporters were out-funded by opponents $4.1
million to $917,715. Most opposition funding
came from the health care industry, including $1
million from the insurance giant Anthem.
