Consider the following data and make your best analysis of
per member per month
(PMPM) rates, considering reductions in utilization or pricing. Bay Pines Medical Center estimates that a capitated population of 50,000 would have the following base case utilization and total cost characteristics:
Service Category
Inpatient Days
per 1,000 Enrollees
Average Cost
per Day
General
150
$1,500
Surgical
125
$1,800
Psychiatric
70
$700
Alcohol/Drug Abuse
38
$500
Maternity
42
$1,500
Total
425
$1,367
In addition to medical costs, Bay Pines allocates 10 percent of the total premium for administration/reserves.
On the basis of your data analysis, respond to the following:
·
What is the PMPM rate that Bay Pines must set to cover medical costs plus administrative expenses?
· What would be the rate if a utilization management program were to reduce utilization within each patient service category by 10 percent? And by 20 percent?
· Consider the initial base case utilization assumption. What rate would be set if the average cost on each service were reduced by 10 percent?
· Assume that both utilization and cost reductions were made. What would the premium be?
To support your work, use your course and textbook readings and also use the South University Online Library. As in all assignments, cite your sources in your work and provide references for the citations in APA format.
