2 Learning Objectives To understand how contextual and individual characteristics influence health behaviors and outcomes of care. To learn about the behavioral model as a conceptual framework for analyzing access and equity in health care. To determine how the dimensions of access can be used to improve utilization and health outcomes. To describe how access has changed over time using nationally standardized indicators that measure potential access (health insurance coverage and regular source of care), realized access (use of hospital, physician, and dental services), and equitable access (providing services according to need for all income and racial and ethnic groups). To assess the effectiveness and efficiency of access in the US To review how the 2010 Affordable Care Act might improve health care access. 2

3 A definition of access to care We define access as the actual use of personal health services and everything that facilitates or impedes the use of personal health services. It is the link between health services systems and the populations they serve. The conceptualization and measurement of access is key to the understanding and formulating health policy because it can be used to predict health services use, to promote social justice and to improve health outcomes. 3

5 Model Contextual and Individual Characteristics The Model stresses that improving access to care is best accomplished by focusing on contextual as well as individual determinants Context includes health organization and provider-related factors as well as community characteristics Contextual characteristics are divided in the same way as individual characteristics: (1) existing conditions that predispose people to use or not use services; (2) enabling conditions that facilitate or impede use of services, and (3) need or conditions that laypeople or health care providers recognize as requiring medical treatment (Andersen, 1968; Andersen, 1995). 5

22 Effective access measures the IOM Committee on Monitoring Access to Medical Care defined effective access as the timely use of personal health services to achieve the best possible health outcomes (Committee on Monitoring Access to Personal Health Care Services & Institute of Medicine, 1993). Measures of effective access examine the effect of potential access (health insurance and regular source of care) and realized access (health services utilization) on outcomes (health status, quality of life, and patient satisfaction with health services). 22

27 Efficient accesss measures. Aday and colleagues describe efficiency as producing the combination of goods and services with the highest attainable total value, given limited resources and technology (Aday, Begley, Lairson, & Slater, 1998).. Like effective access, efficient access measures the impact of potential access (enabling resources like health insurance) and realized access (health services utilization) on outcomes (health status, quality of life, and satisfaction). The difference is that efficient access values the input (potential or realized access) so that the cost of producing one unit of the outcome can be calculated (such as one person-year of life saved, reduction of one disability day per person per year) 27

30 Conclusions and predictions about access to care (1) (Shapiro) Potential access: A key potential access measure, health insurance, reveals that although a growing number of people are being covered by Medicaid, there has been a decline in the number covered by private insurance in the last twenty-five years and an overall increase in the proportion without any health insurance coverage. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) will make health insurance more affordable to populations uninsured or underinsured. Realized access: Although we have documented continuing increases in some realized access measures notably physician and dental visits inpatient hospital admissions and length of stay have been declining for thirty years. However, the declining hospital use rate reflects not so much a reduction in access to appropriate care, but a shift to outpatient services and greater emphasis on primary care and ambulatory outpatient care, reducing the need for acute inpatient services. Equitable access: Low-income and black populations appear to have achieved equity of access according to gross measures of hospital and physician utilization, but continue to lag considerably in receipt of dental care. Hispanics continue to lag in all of these gross measures of access. However, if the generally greater needs of all the minority groups are taken into account, 30 inequities continue to exist for all minorities.

31 Conclusions and Predictions about access to care (2) (Shapiro) The effectiveness of access is making progress over time. However, comparisons of mortality and morbidity rates between the United States and other developed countries call into question the relative effectiveness of the U.S. health care system. Also, some measurements of the treatments and outcomes for particular diseases suggest inequities in effectiveness for some minority and low-income groups. Implementation of the ACA might lead to improvement in effectiveness, for example through newborn screening recommended by the Uniform Screening Panel to detect severe monogenetic diseases (Stark, 2012). Efficient access: The United States is by far the most costly system in the world, with continually spiraling prices and little evidence that the system is generating the kinds of outcomes that might be expected from such a costly system. There is evidence that some types of health care organization and finance (enabling resources) within the system are more efficient than others, but these forms have not been adopted on a scale to greatly influence the national 31

32 Some discussion questions on access (Shapiro) 1. Improving access to care of individuals depends more on contextual than on individual determinants. What is the rationale for this statement? Do you agree or disagree? 2. What is meant by the observation Equity of access is in the eyes of the beholder? How equitable is the U.S. health care system according to your definition of equity? 3. A health policy might promote realized access but not effective access or efficient access. The majority of the U.S. population believes the U.S. system has a major problem. Is the most important problem the system faces one of realized access, effective access, or efficient access? 4. As the United States moves increasingly toward evidenced-based medicine, what dimensions of access become increasingly important? What particular measures of access and what health services research studies would you propose to support this movement? 5. What is the good news and what is the bad news when we examine the trends in various measures of access over time? What might enable us to continue the good news and change the bad news to good? 32
