  • Title: Medicare benefits: a reassessment.
    Author: Hsiao WC, Kelly NL.
    Journal: Milbank Mem Fund Q Health Soc; 1984; 62(2):207-29. PubMed ID: 6425718.
    Abstract:
    Changes in beneficiary cost-sharing provisions must be part of any multi-faceted strategy for Medicare's fiscal solvency . The current flawed benefit structure is seen as inefficient, inequitable , and contrary to prudent insurance principles. An income-related and selective increase in cost-sharing, combined with maximum liability, is proposed.
