Building a Culturally Competent Organization: The Quest for Equity in Health Care /slideshow/cultural-competency-cp/39024378 cultural-competencycp-140912131459-phpapp01
Cultural competency in health care describes the ability of systems to provide care to patients with diverse values, beliefs and behaviors, including the tailoring of health care delivery to meet patients' social, cultural and linguistic needs. A culturally competent health care system is one that acknowledges the importance of culture, incorporates the assessment of cross-cultural relations, recognizes the potential impact of cultural differences, expands cultural knowledge, and adapts services to meet culturally unique needs. Ultimately, cultural competency is recognized as an essential means of reducing racial and ethnic disparities in health care. This guide explores the concept of cultural competency and builds the case for the enhancement of cultural competency in health care.]]>

Hospital Readiness for Population-based Accountable Care (2012) /slideshow/hospital-readiness-for-populationbased-accountable-care-2012/32179430 acoreportfinal1-140311103133-phpapp01
With the generous support of The Commonwealth Fund, the Health Research & Educational Trust performed a national survey of all hospitals in 2011 to assess the current state of hospital readiness in the development of accountable care organizations (ACOs). Based on the survey responses and analyses, the following major themes were identified: 1. A small percentage of hospitals currently participates in an ACO (3%) or is preparing to participate in an ACO (10%). 2. Hospitals expect their revenue sources from risk-based financial reimbursements to double over the next two years (from 9% to 18%). 3. A majority of hospitals are actively engaged in numerous care coordination efforts, though there is variation in the use of specific practices. 4. There are different perceived barriers between hospitals preparing to participate in an ACO and hospitals participating in an ACO. 5. ACO hospitals are significantly involved in population health management services. 6. There are significant gaps in care coordination functionalities. 7. ACOs are striving to improve the quality of their services by using valid performance measures and making results available to the public and participating providers.

Employer Health Benefits Survey 2012 Chartpack /slideshow/2012-ehbs-chartpack/32177757 2012ehbschartpack-140311095753-phpapp02
Employer-sponsored insurance is the leading source of health insurance in America, covering about 149 million non-elderly people. To provide current information about the nature of employer-sponsored health benefits, the Kaiser Family Foundation (Kaiser) and the Health Research & Educational Trust (HRET) conduct an annual national survey of nonfederal private and public employers with three or more workers. This is the fourteenth Kaiser/HRET survey and reflects health benefitinformation for 2012. The key findings from the survey,conducted from January through May 2012, include modest increases in the average single and family insurance premiums and little change in the premium contributions and cost sharing that workers face since last year. Enrollment in high deductible plans with a savings option, such as a health savings account or health reimbursement arrangement, did not increase significantly over the previous year for the first time since 2009. The share of workers in a grandfathered health plan decreased significantly from the previous year to 48% of covered workers. Approximately 2.9 million adult children who were previously not eligible for benefits now have health insurance coverage through their parents due to the Affordable Care Act. In addition, the 2012 survey includes questions on employer wellness programs, including the percentage of plans with financial rewards or penalties for completing health programs or achieving biometric targets.

This annual survey of employers provides a detailed look at trends in employer-sponsored health coverage, including premiums, employee contributions, cost-sharing provisions, and other relevant information. The 2013 survey included almost three thousand interviews with non-federal public and private firms. Annual premiums for employer-sponsored family health coverage reached $16,351 this year, up 4 percent from last year, with workers on average paying $4,565 towards the cost of their coverage, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation/Health Research & Educational Trust (HRET) 2013 Employer Health Benefits Survey.
