Models of Healthcare
1. Beveridge Model• Provided by: Medical providers whose salaries
are paid by Government• Financed by: Federal Government, from income
taxes• Admin. by: Federal Government• Examples: England, Spain, Scandinavia,
Cuba, New Zealand, Hong Kong
![Page 5: 09/16/08LIR 554 Healthcare USA/UK Dawn Roberts, Jamie Miller, Rebecca Seymour, Cory Anderson](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5516841f5503469d698b5f17/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Models of Healthcare
2. Bismarck Model• Provided by: Private medical providers• Financed by: Nonprofit insurance companies,
Premiums paid by employees, employers, government
• Admin. by: Government (closely regulated)• Examples: Germany, France, Switzerland,
Belgium, Japan, Latin America

Models of Healthcare
3. National Health Insurance• Provided by: Private medical providers• Financed by: Federal Government-run insurance
program, from taxes of all citizens• Admin. by: Federal Government• Examples: Canada, Taiwan, South Korea
![Page 7: 09/16/08LIR 554 Healthcare USA/UK Dawn Roberts, Jamie Miller, Rebecca Seymour, Cory Anderson](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5516841f5503469d698b5f17/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Models of Healthcare
4. Out-of-Pocket Model• Provided by: Private medical providers• Financed by: Patients, directly• Admin. by: No one; Each provider collects• Examples: Rural parts of Africa, India, China,
South America
![Page 8: 09/16/08LIR 554 Healthcare USA/UK Dawn Roberts, Jamie Miller, Rebecca Seymour, Cory Anderson](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5516841f5503469d698b5f17/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Models of Healthcare
US uses all of these:1. Beveridge (VA, Military)2. Bismarck (Employer-supported
insurance)3. National Health Insurance (Medicare,
Medicaid)4. Out-of-Pocket (Everyone else)

Description of Systems
US System is notable because:1. Numerous plans; Not universal2. Costly3. For-profit providers, financiers,
and administrators
![Page 11: 09/16/08LIR 554 Healthcare USA/UK Dawn Roberts, Jamie Miller, Rebecca Seymour, Cory Anderson](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5516841f5503469d698b5f17/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Description of Systems
Costs covered by many separate legal entities:Private Insurance Private out-of-pocket Federal government State/local governments Other private funds

Description of Systems
• More dollars spent per capita than any nation
• 15.2% of GDP, with projection of 19.5% by 2017
• $2.26 trillion → $7,439 per person, in 2007

Description of Systems
UK System is notable because:1. Universal 2. Providers receive salary from
Federal Government3. Government decides on care
![Page 16: 09/16/08LIR 554 Healthcare USA/UK Dawn Roberts, Jamie Miller, Rebecca Seymour, Cory Anderson](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5516841f5503469d698b5f17/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Description of Systems
Dramatic differences in health care provision
Are these reflected in actual health differences?

Mechanics of Systems
US: Multiple Ways to Finance Care• Employer-Supported Insurance• Privately-Purchased Insurance• Government-Sponsored Insurance• The Uninsured

Mechanics of Systems–
Employer Supported Healthcare • Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) • Preferred Provider Organization (PPO)• Point of Service (POS)• Health Savings Account (HSA)

Mechanics of Systems–
Privately Purchased Insurance = 9%• Self-employed or Work for companies not
offering health benefits • Premiums based on individual health
history, age, weight, smoking status and deductible chosen
![Page 24: 09/16/08LIR 554 Healthcare USA/UK Dawn Roberts, Jamie Miller, Rebecca Seymour, Cory Anderson](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5516841f5503469d698b5f17/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Mechanics of Systems–
Government Sponsored = 28%• Medicaid • Medicare• VA Health Insurance
![Page 25: 09/16/08LIR 554 Healthcare USA/UK Dawn Roberts, Jamie Miller, Rebecca Seymour, Cory Anderson](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5516841f5503469d698b5f17/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Mechanics of Systems
UK: One Way to Finance Care• National Health Service• World’s largest health service and fourth
largest employer• Publicly funded by the taxation of the
general public• Separate administration in UK colonies, but
reciprocity
![Page 26: 09/16/08LIR 554 Healthcare USA/UK Dawn Roberts, Jamie Miller, Rebecca Seymour, Cory Anderson](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5516841f5503469d698b5f17/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Mechanics of Systems
UK: One Way?• All citizens, Expats with work permits, Students
there > 6 months• Most services free• How does it work?
• GPs inform hospital of a patient's condition. • Hospital judges urgency, against other patients’ conditions. • Urgent need is met almost immediately.• Others receive appointments. (Median wait time ~ 3 weeks)
![Page 27: 09/16/08LIR 554 Healthcare USA/UK Dawn Roberts, Jamie Miller, Rebecca Seymour, Cory Anderson](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/5516841f5503469d698b5f17/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Mechanics of Systems
UK: Private Insurance• Currently, 12% of persons• 2/3 employer-provided; 1/3 individually-
purchased• Privately insured go to NHS hospital or one
of five private hospital groups. • Average individual premium = $260/month
