New study in #HSR from Hannah Crook BSPH et al quantify the degree to which health care service area (HCSA) definitions captured hospitalizations and heterogeneity in social determinants of health (SDOH). WHAT IS KNOWN Health care service area (HCSA) definitions are important for a variety of regulatory, policy, and research purposes. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS This study finds that different HCSA definitions capture a wide range of inpatient discharges, with Metropolitan Statistical Areas capturing the largest proportion (93%–97%). CONCLUSION The proportion of hospital discharges captured by each HCSA varied, with MSAs capturing the highest proportion of discharges and PUMAs capturing the lowest. Additionally, researchers face a trade-off between capture rate and population homogeneity when deciding which HCSA to use.

New study in #HSR from So-Yeon Kang PhD, MBA, MPH examine whether hospitals' experience in a prior payment model incentivizing care coordination is associated with their decision to adopt a new payment program for a care delivery innovation. WHAT IS KNOWN Hospitals make decisions to participate in a new program based on financial incentives and economic benefits. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS Hospitals that participated in a previous demonstration program, either directly or through associated physician group practices, were more likely to adopt a future innovation requiring similar competence in care coordination. CONCLUSION Hospitals that participated in the bundled payment model either directly or indirectly PGPs were more likely to adopt a care delivery innovation requiring similar competence in the next period.
