Association between mandatory bundled payments and changes in socioeconomic disparities for joint replacement outcomes.
This study鈥檚 objective was to determine whether mandatory participation by hospitals in bundled payments for lower extremity joint replacement (LEJR) was associated with changes in outcome disparities for patients dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid. The authors used Medicare claims data for beneficiaries undergoing LEJR in the United States between 2011 and 2017. They conducted a retrospective observational study using a differences-in-differences method to compare changes in outcome disparities between dual-eligible and non-dual eligible beneficiaries after hospital participation in the Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement (CJR) program, with the primary outcome LEJR complications. In adjusted analysis, CJR participation was associated with a reduced difference in complications between dual-eligible and non-dual-eligible beneficiaries (-0.9 percentage points). The reduction in disparities was observed among hospitals without prior experience in a voluntary LEJR bundled payment model, and there were no differential changes in 90-day readmissions or mortality.

Racial disparities in total knee replacement failure as related to poverty.
The authors sought to determine whether racial disparities in total knee replacement (TKR) failure are explained by poverty. Linking New York state patients to residential census tracts by geocoded addresses, they found that there was a trend toward higher TKR revision risk in blacks, but poverty did not modify the relationship between race and TKR revision or failure.

Variation in the delivery of inpatient orthopaedic care to Medicaid beneficiaries within a single metropolitan region.
This study examined rates of Medicaid-funded surgical procedures for orthopedic patients. The authors hypothesized that orthopedists and hospitals are often unwilling to perform surgery on underinsured patients. The payer mix was examined for select inpatient orthopedic surgical procedures within a single region, including elective cases (total knee or hip arthroplasty; spinal decompression or fusion) and trauma cases (hip hemiarthroplasty; femoral or tibial or fibular fracture repair) among 22 hospitals from 2011 to 2016 for patients aged 18 to 64 years. For all cases (n = 19,204) the mean percentage of Medicaid-funded surgical procedures was 7.6%. Elective surgery cases were 5.5% and trauma cases 14.7% which supports their beliefs about delivery rates of orthopedic care on the basis of socioeconomic markers.

The potential influence of regionalization strategies on delivery of care for elective total joint arthroplasty.
Regionalization of total joint arthroplasty (TJA) to high volume hospitals (HVHs) may affect access to care and complication risk. Using administrative data, the authors found that the complication risk was higher if patients went to a local low volume hospital. Black and Medicaid patients were more likely to utilize the local low volume hospital than a local HVH. Utilizing a local HVH is associated with lower complication risks, but patients from vulnerable groups were less likely to utilize these patterns.
