Although there is broad agreement that
the way that health care providers are paid affects their
performance, the empirical literature on the impacts of
provider payment reforms is surprisingly thin. During the
1990s and early 2000s, many European and Central Asian
countries shifted from paying hospitals through historical
budgets to fee-for-service or patient-based-payment methods
(mostly variants of diagnosis-related groups). Using panel
data on 28 countries over the period 1990-2004, the authors
of this study exploit the phased shift from historical
budgets to explore aggregate impacts on hospital throughput,
national health spending, and mortality from causes amenable
to medical care. They use a regression version of
difference-in-differences and two variants that relax the
difference-in-differences parallel trends assumption. The
results show that fee-for-service and patient-based-payment
methods both increased national health spending, including
private (out-of-pocket) spending. However, they had
different effects on inpatient admissions (fee-for-service
increased them; patient-based-payment had no effect), and
average length of stay (fee-for-service had no effect;
patient-based-payment reduced it). Of the two methods, only
patient-based-payment appears to have had any beneficial
effect on "amenable mortality," but there were
significant impacts for only a couple of causes of death,
and not in all model specifications. |
