The new findings from the National Poll on Healthy Aging found 30% of people age 50 to 80 said they had considered having or had an elective operation in the past five years.

A new study, IHPI National Clinician Scholar Kathryn Taylor, M.D., and Hari Nathan, M.D., Ph.D., professor of surgery, found unequal outcomes and higher spending for cancer surgery in patients over 65 who are “dual eligible” for Medicare and Medicaid.
Published in JAMA Surgery, the study looked at the fate of patients who had surgery for four types of cancer and found they suffer more complications, stay in the hospital longer, and have a lower chance of going home.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for telemedicine boomed─increasing 63-fold among Medicare users alone from approximately 840,000 telehealth visits in 2019 to 52.7 million in 2020.
A new study led by Kathleen Li, M.D., M.S., adjunct clinical lecturer of emergency medicine, found that in telemedicine visits related to acute respiratory infection, contractor-supplied physicians prescribed antibiotics to patients nearly twice as often as emergency physicians employed by the hospital system.

|
|
A new study published in the American Journal of Public Health and led by Michele Heisler, M.D., M.P.A., professor of internal medicine, showed community health workers (CHW) employed by Medicaid health plans can help low-income people rely less on the emergency room and more on outpatient care. The CHWs in the study worked with Medicaid participants to make a plan for their health and connect them with social and health care services in their local area.
