Safety-net hospital performance under comprehensive care for joint replacement.
The objective of this study was to investigate the relative progress of safety-net hospitals (SNHs) under Medicare's Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement (CJR) mandatory bundled payment model and to identify contributors to SNHs' realization of success under the CJR program. Secondary data on all CJR hospitals from 2016-2020 were taken from CMS public use files and from the American Hospital Association. The findings indicated that SNHs were less successful in meeting spending targets when compared to CJR hospitals overall. The authors concluded that the formula used by CMS to determine spending targets may not be sufficient to address disparities in SNH financial performances under mandatory bundled payment.
