Mandatory value-based payment programs and hospital administrative costs
JAMA Health Forum
About the Study:
In this cohort study, participation in mandatory value-based payment programs was associated with increased hospital administrative costs. These findings suggest that policymakers should consider administrative burden when designing and evaluating payment reforms to ensure that anticipated improvements in cost, quality, and access are not offset by increased complexity.

JAMA Network Open
About the Study:
In this qualitative study, Afghan women described multilayered health care barriers, including displacement-related trauma, sociocultural norms, and structural deficiencies. Study findings suggest that culturally sensitive and linguistically appropriate public health interventions and structural changes are needed to improve health care access for Afghan women in the US.

Premarket clinical evidence strength and recalls of high-risk therapeutic medical devices
JAMA Health Forum
About the Study:
In this cross-sectional study, more than one-third of high-risk therapeutic medical devices were subject to serious recalls. Because device, premarket clinical evidence, and regulatory characteristics were not consistently associated with serious recalls, robust postmarket surveillance is needed to ensure patient safety.
