Brookings and Hamilton Project urge rethink of Medicare home health

Original: Rethinking Medicare home health

A new policy paper from The Hamilton Project, published through Brookings, argues that Medicare's home health benefit needs structural reform. The authors examine how the program pays for and delivers home-based care, and propose changes aimed at expanding access while controlling costs. The analysis is drawing attention among health policy experts as lawmakers weigh the future of care for older and disabled Americans.

Why now: A major think tank has just released a policy proposal on Medicare home health reform, prompting discussion among health policy watchers.
