3. Background
• Health care costs outpacing growth in
income
• Key goal of ACA is to address affordability
– Medicaid expansion
– Premium and cost-sharing subsidies in the
Exchange
• State variation in ACA implementation and
health care costs/markets
3
4. Goals
• Assess variation in high burden spending
across states
• Estimate potential for ACA to alleviate high
burden spending
4
5. Data: Annual Social and Economic Supplement to the
Current Population Survey (CPS ASEC)
• New questions related to OOP spending added to
the CPS in 2010 (reference CY 2009)
• CPS is a monthly labor survey
– ASEC fielded in Feb-April
– Questions on work, income, migration and health
insurance
– Supports state estimates
5
6. OOP Spending in the CPS
• Spending related to: Medical, dental, vision, medical
supplies, and prescription drugs
• Includes:
– Premiums (except Medicare Part B)
– Non-premium
• Co-pays, deductibles, other cost sharing
• Over the counter expenses (separate in 2011)
7. Data Quality
• Compares well to MEPS and SIPP (Caswell et.
al 2011)
– Compared statistics by age, race, income, etc.
– Tested differences in distribution of OOP
spending across data sources
SKL1
– Small expenditures underreported in CPS
• Overall, data performs well for capturing high
burden spending
8. Slide 7
SKL1 Highlight focus on high costs. Aren't concerned exact estimate of OOP, but on whether OOP are high
SKL, 2/27/2012
9. Measures & Methods
• OOP spending as a share of family income
– High burden: >10% of income
– Very high burden: >20% of income
• Unit of analysis=individuals in families
• Premium and non-premium high burden
spending (2011 only)
10. Methods, Potential Impacts of ACA
• Potentially Medicaid eligible
– Non-elderly citizens below 138% FPG
• Potentially subsidy eligible
– Non-elderly citizens I39-399% FPG
– Uninsured or with nongroup coverage
• Assign potential savings at individual level,
recalculate family spending and burden

11. Methods, Potential Impacts of ACA
Family Income as Premium Cap as Out-of-Pocket Maximum
% of FPG % of Income
Individuals Families
<=138 0% ---------- -------------
138-149 3-4% $1,983 $3967
150-199 4-6.3% $1,983 $3967
200-249 6.3-8.05% $2,975 $5950
250-299 8.05-9.5% $2,975 $5950
300-399 9.5% $3,967 $7933
10
12. Limitations
• Only 1 year of data for estimates of ACA
impacts
– Rerun results with 2012 data in the fall
• Conservative estimates of ACA impacts
– CPS coverage questions don’t assess full year
coverage
– Citizenship (some non-citizens would be eligible
for Medicaid/subsidies)
11
13. High Burden Spending, National Results
• Impacts many Americans
– Nearly 20% or 56 million high burden (>10%)
– 8% very high burden (>20%)
• Compared to total population, more likely
– Income below 250% FPG (59% vs. 42%)
– Fair/poor health (19% vs. 12%)
– Disabled person in family (25% vs. 17%)
– Elderly (22% vs. 13%)
– Nongroup coverage (21% vs. 9%)

• Compared to total population
– Income below 250% FPG (48% vs. 42%)
– Fair/poor health (18% vs. 12%)
– Elderly (22% vs. 13%)
• Compared to high burden before
– Income above 250% FPG (51% vs. 40%)

20. Conclusions, Policy Implications
• High burden spending issue for many
Americans, varies across states
• Estimate ACA will help many, 40 million
remain high burden
• Policy solutions for people with ESI and
elderly
• CPS useful new data source for
– Monitoring
– Informing policy solutions
