More Than Money: Motivating Physician Behavior Change in Accountable Care Organizations
ConclusionsMotivating behavior change within ACOs goes beyond financial incentives. ACOs are using a broad range of motivators, including creating ways to make a greater impact on patients and opportunities to be a more effective physician. Overall, it does not appear that ACOs are deploying the full range of available motivators. This suggests an opportunity to develop more sophisticated and wider‐ranging portfolios of motivators to drive behavior change. (Source: The Milbank Quarterly)

Hard to Avoid but Difficult to Sustain: Scotland's Innovative Health Tax on Large Retailers Selling Tobacco and Alcohol
ConclusionsA tax may be considered a “health” tax on the basis that it raises revenue for health spending and/or that it helps achieve health aims (eg, behavioral change), but there may be tension between these goals in policy design. Framing a tax as a health measure may increase public support in the short term, but this may not be sustained if such framing is insufficiently justified. (Source: The Milbank Quarterly)

The Evolving Dynamics of Employer ‐Sponsored Health Insurance: Implications for Workers, Employers, and the Affordable Care Act
ConclusionsIncreasingly, Americans are relying on dependent ESI coverage through a family member to maintain continuous insurance when their own employer‐based benefits end. Those who transitioned off ESI were also less likely to enroll in a non‐group plan and were twice as likely to become uninsured. The first year of the ACA did not see material changes in the likelihood that an ESI‐insured adult became uninsured or switched to an alternative public or private plan. New ACA outreach efforts are needed to identify and enroll the large and increasing number of individuals who face the end of ESI benefits throughout t...
