The cost of observation care for commercially insured patients visiting the emergency department

@asabbati1 and colleagues found the same thing among a privately insured population (including Medicare Advantage) https://t.co/E0N29hDNj7 - Namely that observation tends to be cheaper than inpatient admission

@tricia_neuman @jasteinesq You can see that in Medicare here: https://t.co/cydPM3l1Wd and in private insurance here: https://t.co/waHc2qmYxY

@movinmeat @MDaware Yes—and the OOP costs are lower for obs among the privately insured as well https://t.co/gLPnjITZ43
