History of Cost Increases Over 40 YearsFailure of Managed Care in Late 90s
Led to Cost Increases in 2000s• Managed care plans control health care costs by limiting
increases in price, quantity, and intensity of care in early 90s
• Providers learned to dislike and then push-back againstmanaged care plans efforts to limit medical services in late 90s
• Patients dislike of plan efforts that limit care led to patient rightslegislation at state and national levels in late 90s
• Employees complaints about accessibility of care and of planefforts to limit care led employers in a robust economy to pushplans to loosen efforts to limit costs of care
• Plans added more physicians to networks and reduce utilizationreview based efforts to limit care

Impact of the Status of Economy on Health Care Costs
• Robust economy/growing Gross DomesticProduct (GDP)
– Accommodates increase in health care costs
– Provides funds to pay for increased costs of healthinsurance by employers, State governments

– Spending for health care continues to increase ratherthan decrease with most sectors of economy – thehealth care sector is largely recession proof
– Leads to increase in share of economy in health carebecause denominator/GDP declines
