Bending the Health Care Cost Curve in New York State: Options for Saving Money and Improving Care

July 2010

NYS Health Foundation

This report, commissioned by the NewYork State Health Foundation, is designed to inform a State-level discussion of health care savings opportunities in New York. This paper outlines the estimated impact of 10 scenarios that could help to contain escalating health care costs in New York State over the next decade while also improving health care quality. Of the 10 policy options analyzed, high-level implementation plans were developed for four scenarios:  Expanding Palliative Care, Integrating Care for Dual Eligibles, Adopting Bundled Payment Methods and Rebalancing Long-Term Care.  Those plans and the technical appendix to this report can be found as separate publication entries on this website.
