Changing roles of health insurers in France, Germany, and the Netherlands: any lessons to learn from Bismarckian systems?
Health Econ Policy Law. 2023 Sep 7:1-15. doi: 10.1017/S1744133123000191. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBismarckian health systems are mainly governed by social health insurers, but their role, status, and power vary across countries and over time. We compare the role of health insurers in three distinct social health insurance systems in improving health systems' efficiency. In France, insurers work together as a single payer within a highly regulated context. Although this gives insurers substantial bargaining power, collective negotiations with providers are highly political and do not provide appropriate incentives for ...

Objectivity, practicality, and significance of practice guidelines for the practicing neurologists: What we learnt from consensus criteria in CIDP, Myasthenia Gravis and Inflammatory Myopathies
Ther Adv Neurol Disord. 2023 Sep 4;16:17562864231194821. doi: 10.1177/17562864231194821. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTThe value of practice guidelines in the three most common autoimmune neuromuscular disorders, namely Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP), Myasthenia Gravis (MG) and Autoimmune Inflammatory Myopathies (AIM), has been extensively debated regarding their usefulness in clinical practice, objectivity and universal value considering that guidelines are also established regionally in certain countries. This commentary highlights common concerns on how guidelines are presently generated, pointing o...

Development of a Multilevel Model to Identify Patients at Risk for Delay in Starting Cancer Treatment
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: In this cohort study, a machine learning model incorporating EHR and SDOH data was able to estimate the likelihood of delays in starting cancer therapy. Future work should focus on additional ways to incorporate SDOH data to improve model performance, particularly in vulnerable populations.PMID:37578796 | DOI:10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2023.28712

Navigating the acute to post-acute transition with patients: a first characterization of medical student knowledge gaps in rehabilitation and post-acute care
CONCLUSIONS: Despite caring for patients discharged to post-acute rehabilitation settings, medical students lack essential knowledge about the process of rehabilitation and recovery, including patient eligibility for and service availability across PAC settings. Explicit rehabilitation/PAC education for medical students could enhance their ability to counsel and advocate for patients with disability and rehabilitation needs through care transitions.Implications for rehabilitationMedical students lack knowledge about rehabilitation and post-acute care that is important for helping patients navigate the acute to post-acute t...

Developing nonlinear k-nearest neighbors classification algorithms to identify patients at high risk of increased length of hospital stay following spine surgery
CONCLUSIONS: Overall, these findings demonstrate that nonlinear KNN machine learning models have incredibly high predictive value for LOS. Important predictor variables include diabetes, osteoporosis, socioeconomic quartile, duration of surgery, estimated blood loss during surgery, patient educational status, American Society of Anesthesiologists grade, BMI, insurance status, smoking status, sex, and age. These models may be considered for external validation by spine surgeons to aid in patient selection and management, resource utilization, and preoperative surgical planning.PMID:37283368 | DOI:10.3171/2023.3.FOCUS22651
