(PRWEB) April 27, 2014

A study published this week in The American Journal of Managed Care found that revamping payments to cancer doctorsto reward them for spending more time with patients and less for prescribing drugsdid little to change their behavior. Authors of the study, Physician Behavior Impact When Revenue Shifted From Drugs to Services, say this should be a warning to policy makers that changing reimbursement models, while worthwhile, may not yield savings overnight.

Current thinking in healthcare reform, including statements from oncologists themselves, seeks to shift reimbursement in cancer care away from payment as a percentage of drug costs. Critics attribute soaring cancer care costs to ever-increasing prices for breakthrough drugs, alongside current reimbursement models.

Authors of the new study, led by Bruce A. Feinberg, DO, vice president and chief medical officer, oncology, at Cardinal Health Specialty Solutions, examined whether physician behavior changed under a different reimbursement system; one that rewarded doctors for using less-expensive drugs and paid them more for cognitive services, such as survivorship planning.

Dr Feinbergs team conducted a retrospective study of oncologists practicing within a new delivery model called a Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH), which is designed to better coordinate patient care. Oncologists practicing in the PCMH were paid under the revised reimbursement model. Researchers compared this groups behavior with that of other oncologists who were part of a broader study that examined whether clinical care pathways save money. (A year ago, the authors published results that showed pathways reduced cancer costs by 15% and trimmed hospital stays by 7%.)

The new study compared 2 years of claims data; researchers looked at claims from April 1, 2010, to March 31, 2011, just before PCMH implementation, and data from April 1, 2011, to March 31, 2012, after implementation.

To their surprise, the authors found that the PCMH oncologists behavior was indistinguishable from behaviors exhibited in the control group. The 2 groups had virtually the same percentages of patients on chemotherapy, and they shifted patients to generic drugs at the same pace over time. Notably, the PCMH oncologists did not increase the amount of patient contact, even though they had an economic incentive to do so.

We found that, surprisingly, moving financial incentives from drug administration toward cognitive services did not alter physician behavior with regard to type or frequency of chemotherapy administrations, the authors write. We say surprisingly, as expectations based on prevailing wisdom suggest physicians behave in their economic best interest as long as patient outcomes are not jeopardized.

The authors acknowledge that they can only speculate on reasons for these results. One cause, the authors state, may be the fact that the doctors involved were already in a pathways program with established patterns of care that limited variance. In other words, this particular group of oncologists may have been less likely to alter practice patterns for purely economic reasons.

Previously, Dr Feinberg has discussed the difficulty of changing physician behavior, or what he calls the culture of medicine. At the November 2013 conference, Patient-Centered Oncology Care, sponsored by The American Journal of Managed Care, Dr Feinberg said that medicine, and cancer care in particular, had to address a philosophy of now over later, new over old, and more over less.

It is unclear whether the culture of medicine accounts for the results in the AJMC study, but the authors mention it as an item for further study. Whether this pattern of care was pathway-influenced or is the result of National Comprehensive Cancer Network and other guidelines, brand name prescription drug detailing, cognitive dissonance, our culture of medicine, or other factors, is speculative without more information, they write.

About the Journal

The American Journal of Managed Care, now in its 20th year of publication, is the leading peer-reviewed journal dedicated to issues in managed care. In December 2013, AJMC launched The American Journal of Accountable Care, which publishes research and commentary devoted to understanding changes to the healthcare system due to the 2010 Affordable Care Act. AJMCs news publications, the Evidence-Based series, bring together stakeholder views from payers, providers, policymakers and pharmaceutical leaders in the areas of oncology, diabetes management, respiratory care, and immunology and infectious disease.

Surrender to Love: Discovering the Heart of Christian Spirituality
Event on 2014-07-11 19:00:00

"The tragic reality is that most people don't know what real love looks like, and so they spend a lifetime living with a superficial caricature of the real thing. If you are ready to experience deep levels of companionship and connection, then Surrender to Love is for you."

Gary J. Oliver

Snapshot of Surrender to Love

"In our self-reliant era, most of us recoil from the concept of surrendering to a power or authority outside ourselves. But surrender need not be seen as threatening, especially when the One to whom we surrender is the epitome of goodness and love. God doesn't want his people to respond to him out of fear or obligation. Rather, he invites us to enter into an authentic relationship of intimacy and devotion. And so God calls us to move beyond mere obedience–by surrendering to love. In this profound book, David Benner explores the twin themes of love and surrender as the heart of Christian spirituality. Through careful examination of Scripture and reflection on the Christian tradition, Benner shows how God bids us to trust fully in his perfect love. Writing with mature wisdom gleaned from many years of integrating psychological and spiritual insight, Benner demonstrates keen perception and sensitivity to the realities of spirtitual formation. In each chapter he includes meditative exercises to guide you into a greater experience of trust and spiritual transformation. God is love, and he intends for you to live in his love.Surrender to Love will lead you to an unexpected place, where yieldedness to God frees you to become who he created you to be."

A recent BBC article has suggested that Chancellor George Osborne, whose latest Budget announcements were well received by most pension-age parties, may be making a U-turn. The one aspect that left doubt in the minds of many was his promise of free one-to-one advice, designed to ensure retirement remains as secure as possible for British pensioner confused about their options.

When addressing the parliamentary Works and Pensions Select Committee, pensions Minister Steve Webb has stated that the pension advice retirees receive will be basic fairly rudimentary fairly general fairly broad but enough to get people to the starting gate, adding “Were not expecting someone to have a post doctorate in financial education to deliver this guidance guarantee.”

Susun Weed will be interviewing Laura Cerwinske, founder of Radical Writing, on May 8th at 9:30 p.m. The interview will address the depth and intricacies of the mother/daughter bond and the online personal growth course Laura has developed on the subject. The seminar can be accessed at: http://wisewomanweb.com/teleseminar-May8-2014-signup.html.

For most of my life, my relationship with my mother could only be described as adversarial, a damaging cycle of competition, criticism, and conflict. Having once attended a course taught by the world-renowned teacher of Womens Wisdom, Susun Weed, I was able to draw Weeds knowledge into my own writing process, commented Cerwinske. The transformation has improved and advanced every aspect of my life physically, emotionally, even professionally, she describes. Today my mother is my dependable radiance. Every word we share is an expression of appreciation.

Recomposing the Mother-Daughter Bond or How I Survived My Mother and Lived to Teach the Tale and Love Her is offered through the Wise Woman University. The great success of this deeply personal program comes from practicing the art of non-judgmental observation as the instrument of re-composition, Laura explains. You will neutralize fear or unease and thereby safely release old patterns of thought and behavior. Even if the mother/daughter is not physically a part of your life or has passed away, the bond remains energetically/psychologically at play. By deepening that bond, you will be rewarded with unanticipated love.

Laura uses the same technique she teaches in Radical Writing, her creative writing online course in personal development. A transformational creative writing forum, it draws upon the imagination to propel uninhibited self-expression. The self-exploration process works in the same way as icon painting, totem making, and other forms of religious art: by engaging and focusing the conscious and subconscious activities of the mind. The online writing program integrates writing, drawing, movement, and touch. It requires no previous writing experience or expertise whatsoever. Students have the opportunity to speak with Laura directly as part of her weekly online Radical Writing conference call (http://www.radicalwriting.com) and through the Wise Woman University course website – Recomposing the Mother-Daughter Bond http://www.wisewomanuniversity.org/cerwinske/ and/or http://www.lauracerwinske.com.
