comparison of catalytic activity of heteropoly compounds in the synthesis of bis(indolyl)alkanes.

heteropoly acids (hpa) and their salts have advantages as catalysts which make them both economically and environmentally attractive, strong br?nsted acidity, exhibiting fast reversible multi-electron redox transformations under rather mild conditions, very high solubility in polar solvents, fairly high thermal stability in the solid states, and efficient oxidizing ability, so that they are imp...

Risk adjustment: towards achieving meaningful comparison of health outcomes in the real world.

Health outcomes evaluation seeks to compare a new treatment or novel programme with the current standard of care, or to identify variation of outcomes across different healthcare providers. In the real world, it is not always possible to conduct randomised controlled trials to address the issue of comparator groups being different with respect to baseline risk factors for the outcomes. Therefor...

How profitable is risk selection? A comparison of four risk adjustment models.

To mitigate selection triggered by capitation payments, risk-adjustment models bring capitation payments closer on average to individuals' expected expenditure. We examine the maximum potential profit that plans could hypothetically gain by using their own private information to select low-cost enrollees when payments are made using four commonly used risk adjustment models. Simulations using a...

RETHINKING THE ART AND SCIENCE OF RISK ADJUSTMENT Risk Adjustment for Measuring Health Care Outcomes

In recent years many academics, health care providers, and third-party payers have focused their attention on estimating and discussing the quality of health care. This focus is derived in part from concerns that the incentives of funding systems, such as prospective payments, result in cost/quality trade-offs that have a negative impact on the health of beneficiaries (Poland, Bollinger, Bedard...
