    Abstract The federal government, mostly through the Medicare and Medicaid programs, has created and maintained a set of structural mechanisms to support uncompensated care and clinical education: disproportionate-share hospital payments and direct and indirect graduate medical education payments. This paper provides a history of how these traditional supports have evolved. We note that the need to reduce federal and state spending threatens the level of these payments, while changes in the health care delivery system highlight a range of design and technical inadequacies in the current support mechanisms.

    Abstract Hospitals cannot continue to view themselves only as social institutions whose performance will be assessed on the good they do. Teaching hospitals, in particular, cannot view themselves simply as distinctive combinations of social and educational institutions. Under Medicare's prospective pricing system, the hospital's role as production system is enhanced, and all hospitals must learn to balance the new economic realities as they work with their medical staff to adapt to a changed future.

    Abstract Teaching hospitals are concerned about the new competitive environment because their costs are generally higher than those of nonteaching hospitals. Many of the higher costs of teaching hospitals derive from their educational programs, the nature of the patient diagnostic case mix; losses on charity care; and their role in the introduction of new and more effective methods for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of illness. All of these functions are important to the missions of teaching hospitals, and all make teaching hospitals more expensive to operate than nonteaching hospitals. While a solution to the problem of financing graduate medical education will not ensure teaching hospital financial health, a solution to the financing of graduate medical education will provide a more equitable environment in which teaching hospitals can compete. The basic question to be answered in the price competitive environment is, "can the teaching hospital continue to attract patients at a competitive price and maintain financial support for its educational programs at current levels?" Teaching hospitals are a diverse group of highly complex institutions performing medical education and research services for the nation and providing both basic and tertiary patient care. The current emphasis on reexamining national policies in light of more limited public resources places teaching hospitals and their vital activities at significant risk if their special nature and role are not appreciated.

    Abstract Dehydroalanine residues in peptides and proteins react with 4-pyridoethanethiol in alkaline solution to form 4-pyridoethyl cysteine residues, which after acid hydrolysis, give the corresponding amino acid. An experimental protocol has been developed, and with simple dehydroalanine derivatives, conversions of 96-99% are achieved. Tests with peptides and proteins show that serine and cysteine/cystine residues do not interfere with this analytical procedure. A sample of wool keratin contained 57 mumol dehydroalanine/g.

    Abstract The number and types of patients treated by a hospital is referred to as the patient case mix. One classification approach--Diagnosis Related Groups--is being used in New Jersey and Maryland to determine hospital reimbursement rates. In this article, the authors define the concept of the patient case mix, describe DRGs, and forecast the impact they may have on hospital laboratory operations.
