Must choose between QI-1 and Medicaid. Cannot have both, not even Medicaid with a spend-down. 2.

INCOME LIMITS and RULES Each of the three MSP programs has different income eligibility requirements and provides different benefits. The income limits are tied to the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). 2019 FPL levels were released by NYS DOH in GIS 20 MA/02 - 2020 Federal Poverty Levels -- Attachment II and have been posted by Medicaid.gov and the National Council on Aging and are in the chart below.

NOTE. There is usually a lag in time of several weeks, or even months, from January 1st of each year until the new FPLs are release, and then before the new MSP income limits are officially implemented. During this lag period, local Medicaid offices should continue to use the previous year's FPLs AND count the person's Social Security benefit amount from the previous year - do NOT factor in the Social Security COLA (cost of living adjustment).

Once the updated guidelines are released, districts will use the new FPLs and go ahead and factor in any COLA. See 2019 Fact Sheet on MSP in NYS by Medicare Rights Center ENGLISH SPANISH Income is determined by the same methodology as is used for determining in eligibility for SSI The rules for counting income for SSI-related (Aged 65+, Blind, or Disabled) Medicaid recipients, borrowed from the SSI program, apply to the MSP program, except for the new rules about counting household size for married couples. N.Y.

367-a(3)(c)(2), NYS DOH 2000-ADM-7, 89-ADM-7 p.7. Gross income is counted, although there are certain types of income that are disregarded. The most common income disregards, also known as deductions, include.

(a) The first $20 of your &. Your spouse's monthly income, earned or unearned ($20 per couple max). (b) SSI EARNED INCOME DISREGARDS.

* The first $65 of monthly wages of you and your spouse, * One-half of the remaining monthly wages (after the $65 is deducted). * Other work incentives including PASS plans, impairment related work expenses (IRWEs), blind work expenses, etc. For information on these deductions, see The Medicaid Buy-In for Working People with Disabilities (MBI-WPD) and other guides in this article -- though written for the MBI-WPD, the work incentives apply to all Medicaid programs, including MSP, for people age 65+, disabled or blind.

(c) monthly cost of any health insurance premiums but NOT the Part B premium, since Medicaid will now pay this premium (may deduct Medigap supplemental policies, vision, dental, or long term care insurance premiums, and the Part D premium but only to the extent the premium exceeds the Extra Help benchmark amount) (d) Food stamps not counted. You can get a more comprehensive listing of the SSI-related income disregards on the Medicaid income disregards chart. As for all benefit programs based on financial need, it is usually advantageous to be considered a larger household, because the income limit is higher.

The above chart shows that Households of TWO have a higher income limit than households of ONE. The MSP programs use the same rules as Medicaid does for the Disabled, Aged and Blind (DAB) which are borrowed from the SSI program for Medicaid recipients in the “SSI-related category.” Under these rules, a household can be only ONE or TWO. 18 NYCRR 360-4.2.

See DAB Household Size Chart. Married persons can sometimes be ONE or TWO depending on arcane rules, which can force a Medicare beneficiary to be limited to the income limit for ONE person even though his spouse who is under 65 and not disabled has no income, and is supported by the client applying for an MSP. EXAMPLE.

Bob's Social Security is $1300/month. He is age 67 and has Medicare. His wife, Nancy, is age 62 and is not disabled and does not work.

Under the old rule, Bob was not eligible for an MSP because his income was above the Income limit for One, even though it was well under the Couple limit. In 2010, NYS DOH modified its rules so that all married individuals will be considered a household size of TWO. DOH GIS 10 MA 10 Medicare Savings Program Household Size, June 4, 2010.

This rule for household size is an exception to the rule applying SSI budgeting rules to the MSP program. Under these rules, Bob is now eligible for an MSP. When is One Better than Two?.

Of course, there may be couples where the non-applying spouse's income is too high, and disqualifies the applying spouse from an MSP. In such cases, "spousal refusal" may be used SSL 366.3(a). (Link is to NYC HRA form, can be adapted for other counties).

3. The Three Medicare Savings Programs - what are they and how are they different?. 1.

Qualified Medicare Beneficiary (QMB). The QMB program provides the most comprehensive benefits. Available to those with incomes at or below 100% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL), the QMB program covers virtually all Medicare cost-sharing obligations.

Part B premiums, Part A premiums, if there are any, and any and all deductibles and co-insurance. QMB coverage is not retroactive. The program’s benefits will begin the month after the month in which your client is found eligible.

** See special rules about cost-sharing for QMBs below - updated with new CMS directive issued January 2012 ** See NYC HRA QMB Recertification form ** Even if you do not have Part A automatically, because you did not have enough wages, you may be able to enroll in the Part A Buy-In Program, in which people eligible for QMB who do not otherwise have Medicare Part A may enroll, with Medicaid paying the Part A premium (Materials by the Medicare Rights Center). 2. Specifiedl Low-Income Medicare Beneficiary (SLMB).

For those with incomes between 100% and 120% FPL, the SLMB program will cover Part B premiums only. SLMB is retroactive, however, providing coverage for three months prior to the month of application, as long as your client was eligible during those months. 3.

Qualified Individual (QI-1). For those with incomes between 120% and 135% FPL, and not receiving Medicaid, the QI-1 program will cover Medicare Part B premiums only. QI-1 is also retroactive, providing coverage for three months prior to the month of application, as long as your client was eligible during those months.

However, QI-1 retroactive coverage can only be provided within the current calendar year. (GIS 07 MA 027) So if you apply in January, you get no retroactive coverage. Q-I-1 recipients would be eligible for Medicaid with a spend-down, but if they want the Part B premium paid, they must choose between enrolling in QI-1 or Medicaid.

They cannot be in both. It is their choice. DOH MRG p.

19. In contrast, one may receive Medicaid and either QMB or SLIMB. 4.

Four Special Benefits of MSPs (in addition to NO ASSET TEST). Benefit 1. Back Door to Medicare Part D "Extra Help" or Low Income Subsidy -- All MSP recipients are automatically enrolled in Extra Help, the subsidy that makes Part D affordable.

They have no Part D deductible or doughnut hole, the premium is subsidized, and they pay very low copayments. Once they are enrolled in Extra Help by virtue of enrollment in an MSP, they retain Extra Help for the entire calendar year, even if they lose MSP eligibility during that year. The "Full" Extra Help subsidy has the same income limit as QI-1 - 135% FPL.

However, many people may be eligible for QI-1 but not Extra Help because QI-1 and the other MSPs have no asset limit. People applying to the Social Security Administration for Extra Help might be rejected for this reason. Recent (2009-10) changes to federal law called "MIPPA" requires the Social Security Administration (SSA) to share eligibility data with NYSDOH on all persons who apply for Extra Help/ the Low Income Subsidy.

Data sent to NYSDOH from SSA will enable NYSDOH to open MSP cases on many clients. The effective date of the MSP application must be the same date as the Extra Help application. Signatures will not be required from clients.

In cases where the SSA data is incomplete, NYSDOH will forward what is collected to the local district for completion of an MSP application. The State implementing procedures are in DOH 2010 ADM-03. Also see CMS "Dear State Medicaid Director" letter dated Feb.

18, 2010 Benefit 2. MSPs Automatically Waive Late Enrollment Penalties for Part B Generally one must enroll in Part B within the strict enrollment periods after turning age 65 or after 24 months of Social Security Disability. An exception is if you or your spouse are still working and insured under an employer sponsored group health plan, or if you have End Stage Renal Disease, and other factors, see this from Medicare Rights Center.

If you fail to enroll within those short periods, you might have to pay higher Part B premiums for life as a Late Enrollment Penalty (LEP). Also, you may only enroll in Part B during the Annual Enrollment Period from January 1 - March 31st each year, with Part B not effective until the following July. Enrollment in an MSP automatically eliminates such penalties...

For life.. Even if one later ceases to be eligible for the MSP. AND enrolling in an MSP will automatically result in becoming enrolled in Part B if you didn't already have it and only had Part A.

See Medicare Rights Center flyer. Benefit 3. No Medicaid Lien on Estate to Recover MSP Benefits Paid Generally speaking, states may place liens on the Estates of deceased Medicaid recipients to recover the cost of Medicaid services that were provided after the recipient reached the age of 55.

Since 2002, states have not been allowed to recover the cost of Medicare premiums paid under MSPs. In 2010, Congress expanded protection for MSP benefits. Beginning on January 1, 2010, states may not place liens on the Estates of Medicaid recipients who died after January 1, 2010 to recover costs for co-insurance paid under the QMB MSP program for services rendered after January 1, 2010.

The federal government made this change in order to eliminate barriers to enrollment in MSPs. See NYS DOH GIS 10-MA-008 - Medicare Savings Program Changes in Estate Recovery The GIS clarifies that a client who receives both QMB and full Medicaid is exempt from estate recovery for these Medicare cost-sharing expenses. Benefit 4.

SNAP (Food Stamp) benefits not reduced despite increased income from MSP - at least temporarily Many people receive both SNAP (Food Stamp) benefits and MSP. Income for purposes of SNAP/Food Stamps is reduced by a deduction for medical expenses, which includes payment of the Part B premium. Since approval for an MSP means that the client no longer pays for the Part B premium, his/her SNAP/Food Stamps income goes up, so their SNAP/Food Stamps go down.

Here are some protections. Do these individuals have to report to their SNAP worker that their out of pocket medical costs have decreased?. And will the household see a reduction in their SNAP benefits, since the decrease in medical expenses will increase their countable income?.

The good news is that MSP households do NOT have to report the decrease in their medical expenses to the SNAP/Food Stamp office until their next SNAP/Food Stamp recertification. Even if they do report the change, or the local district finds out because the same worker is handling both the MSP and SNAP case, there should be no reduction in the household’s benefit until the next recertification. New York’s SNAP policy per administrative directive 02 ADM-07 is to “freeze” the deduction for medical expenses between certification periods.

Increases in medical expenses can be budgeted at the household’s request, but NYS never decreases a household’s medical expense deduction until the next recertification. Most elderly and disabled households have 24-month SNAP certification periods. Eventually, though, the decrease in medical expenses will need to be reported when the household recertifies for SNAP, and the household should expect to see a decrease in their monthly SNAP benefit.

It is really important to stress that the loss in SNAP benefits is NOT dollar for dollar. A $100 decrease in out of pocket medical expenses would translate roughly into a $30 drop in SNAP benefits. See more info on SNAP/Food Stamp benefits by the Empire Justice Center, and on the State OTDA website.

Some clients will be automatically enrolled in an MSP by the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) shortly after attaining eligibility for Medicare. Others need to apply. The 2010 "MIPPA" law introduced some improvements to increase MSP enrollment.

See 3rd bullet below. Also, some people who had Medicaid through the Affordable Care Act before they became eligible for Medicare have special procedures to have their Part B premium paid before they enroll in an MSP. See below.

WHO IS AUTOMATICALLY ENROLLED IN AN MSP. Clients receiving even $1.00 of Supplemental Security Income should be automatically enrolled into a Medicare Savings Program (most often QMB) under New York State’s Medicare Savings Program Buy-in Agreement with the federal government once they become eligible for Medicare. They should receive Medicare Parts A and B.

Clients who are already eligible for Medicare when they apply for Medicaid should be automatically assessed for MSP eligibility when they apply for Medicaid. (NYS DOH 2000-ADM-7 and GIS 05 MA 033). Clients who apply to the Social Security Administration for Extra Help, but are rejected, should be contacted &.

Enrolled into an MSP by the Medicaid program directly under new MIPPA procedures that require data sharing. Strategy TIP. Since the Extra Help filing date will be assigned to the MSP application, it may help the client to apply online for Extra Help with the SSA, even knowing that this application will be rejected because of excess assets or other reason.

SSA processes these requests quickly, and it will be routed to the State for MSP processing. Since MSP applications take a while, at least the filing date will be retroactive. Note.

The above strategy does not work as well for QMB, because the effective date of QMB is the month after the month of application. As a result, the retroactive effective date of Extra Help will be the month after the failed Extra Help application for those with QMB rather than SLMB/QI-1. Applying for MSP Directly with Local Medicaid Program.

Those who do not have Medicaid already must apply for an MSP through their local social services district. (See more in Section D. Below re those who already have Medicaid through the Affordable Care Act before they became eligible for Medicare.

If you are applying for MSP only (not also Medicaid), you can use the simplified MSP application form (theDOH-4328(Rev. 8/2017-- English) (2017 Spanish version not yet available). Either application form can be mailed in -- there is no interview requirement anymore for MSP or Medicaid.

See 10 ADM-04. Applicants will need to submit proof of income, a copy of their Medicare card (front &. Back), and proof of residency/address.

See the application form for other instructions. One who is only eligible for QI-1 because of higher income may ONLY apply for an MSP, not for Medicaid too. One may not receive Medicaid and QI-1 at the same time.

If someone only eligible for QI-1 wants Medicaid, s/he may enroll in and deposit excess income into a pooled Supplemental Needs Trust, to bring her countable income down to the Medicaid level, which also qualifies him or her for SLIMB or QMB instead of QI-1. Advocates in NYC can sign up for a half-day "Deputization Training" conducted by the Medicare Rights Center, at which you'll be trained and authorized to complete an MSP application and to submit it via the Medicare Rights Center, which submits it to HRA without the client having to apply in person. Enrolling in an MSP if you already have Medicaid, but just become eligible for Medicare Those who, prior to becoming enrolled in Medicare, had Medicaid through Affordable Care Act are eligible to have their Part B premiums paid by Medicaid (or the cost reimbursed) during the time it takes for them to transition to a Medicare Savings Program.

In 2018, DOH clarified that reimbursement of the Part B premium will be made regardless of whether the individual is still in a Medicaid managed care (MMC) plan. GIS 18 MA/001 Medicaid Managed Care Transition for Enrollees Gaining Medicare ( PDF) provides, "Due to efforts to transition individuals who gain Medicare eligibility and who require LTSS, individuals may not be disenrolled from MMC upon receipt of Medicare. To facilitate the transition and not disadvantage the recipient, the Medicaid program is approving reimbursement of Part B premiums for enrollees in MMC." The procedure for getting the Part B premium paid is different for those whose Medicaid was administered by the NYS of Health Exchange (Marketplace), as opposed to their local social services district.

The procedure is also different for those who obtain Medicare because they turn 65, as opposed to obtaining Medicare based on disability. Either way, Medicaid recipients who transition onto Medicare should be automatically evaluated for MSP eligibility at their next Medicaid recertification. NYS DOH 2000-ADM-7 Individuals can also affirmatively ask to be enrolled in MSP in between recertification periods.

IF CLIENT HAD MEDICAID ON THE MARKETPLACE (NYS of Health Exchange) before obtaining Medicare. IF they obtain Medicare because they turn age 65, they will receive a letter from their local district asking them to "renew" Medicaid through their local district. See 2014 LCM-02.

Now, their Medicaid income limit will be lower than the MAGI limits ($842/ mo reduced from $1387/month) and they now will have an asset test. For this reason, some individuals may lose full Medicaid eligibility when they begin receiving Medicare. People over age 65 who obtain Medicare do NOT keep "Marketplace Medicaid" for 12 months (continuous eligibility) See GIS 15 MA/022 - Continuous Coverage for MAGI Individuals.

Since MSP has NO ASSET limit. Some individuals may be enrolled in the MSP even if they lose Medicaid, or if they now have a Medicaid spend-down. If a Medicare/Medicaid recipient reports income that exceeds the Medicaid level, districts must evaluate the person’s eligibility for MSP.

08 OHIP/ADM-4 ​If you became eligible for Medicare based on disability and you are UNDER AGE 65, you are entitled to keep MAGI Medicaid for 12 months from the month it was last authorized, even if you now have income normally above the MAGI limit, and even though you now have Medicare. This is called Continuous Eligibility. EXAMPLE.

Sam, age 60, was last authorized for Medicaid on the Marketplace in June 2016. He became enrolled in Medicare based on disability in August 2016, and started receiving Social Security in the same month (he won a hearing approving Social Security disability benefits retroactively, after first being denied disability). Even though his Social Security is too high, he can keep Medicaid for 12 months beginning June 2016.

Sam has to pay for his Part B premium - it is deducted from his Social Security check. He may call the Marketplace and request a refund. This will continue until the end of his 12 months of continues MAGI Medicaid eligibility.

He will be reimbursed regardless of whether he is in a Medicaid managed care plan. See GIS 18 MA/001 Medicaid Managed Care Transition for Enrollees Gaining Medicare (PDF) When that ends, he will renew Medicaid and apply for MSP with his local district. Individuals who are eligible for Medicaid with a spenddown can opt whether or not to receive MSP.

(Medicaid Reference Guide (MRG) p. 19). Obtaining MSP may increase their spenddown.

MIPPA - Outreach by Social Security Administration -- Under MIPPA, the SSA sends a form letter to people who may be eligible for a Medicare Savings Program or Extra Help (Low Income Subsidy - LIS) that they may apply. The letters are. · Beneficiary has Extra Help (LIS), but not MSP · Beneficiary has no Extra Help (LIS) or MSP 6.

Enrolling in MSP for People Age 65+ who do Not have Free Medicare Part A - the "Part A Buy-In Program" Seniors WITHOUT MEDICARE PART A or B -- They may be able to enroll in the Part A Buy-In program, in which people eligible for QMB who are age 65+ who do not otherwise have Medicare Part A may enroll in Part A, with Medicaid paying the Part A premium. See Step-by-Step Guide by the Medicare Rights Center). This guide explains the various steps in "conditionally enrolling" in Part A at the SSA office, which must be done before applying for QMB at the Medicaid office, which will then pay the Part A premium.

See also GIS 04 MA/013. In June, 2018, the SSA revised the POMS manual procedures for the Part A Buy-In to to address inconsistencies and confusion in SSA field offices and help smooth the path for QMB enrollment. The procedures are in the POMS Section HI 00801.140 "Premium-Free Part A Enrollments for Qualified Medicare BenefiIaries." It includes important clarifications, such as.

SSA Field Offices should explain the QMB program and conditional enrollment process if an individual lacks premium-free Part A and appears to meet QMB requirements. SSA field offices can add notes to the “Remarks” section of the application and provide a screen shot to the individual so the individual can provide proof of conditional Part A enrollment when applying for QMB through the state Medicaid program. Beneficiaries are allowed to complete the conditional application even if they owe Medicare premiums.

In Part A Buy-in states like NYS, SSA should process conditional applications on a rolling basis (without regard to enrollment periods), even if the application coincides with the General Enrollment Period. (The General Enrollment Period is from Jan 1 to March 31st every year, in which anyone eligible may enroll in Medicare Part A or Part B to be effective on July 1st). 7.

What happens after the MSP approval - How is Part B premium paid For all three MSP programs, the Medicaid program is now responsible for paying the Part B premiums, even though the MSP enrollee is not necessarily a recipient of Medicaid. The local Medicaid office (DSS/HRA) transmits the MSP approval to the NYS Department of Health – that information gets shared w/ SSA and CMS SSA stops deducting the Part B premiums out of the beneficiary’s Social Security check. SSA also refunds any amounts owed to the recipient.

!. ) CMS “deems” the MSP recipient eligible for Part D Extra Help/ Low Income Subsidy (LIS). ​Can the MSP be retroactive like Medicaid, back to 3 months before the application?.

​The answer is different for the 3 MSP programs. QMB -No Retroactive Eligibility – Benefits begin the month after the month of the MSP application. 18 NYCRR § 360-7.8(b)(5) SLIMB - YES - Retroactive Eligibility up to 3 months before the application, if was eligible This means applicant may be reimbursed for the 3 months of Part B benefits prior to the month of application.

QI-1 - YES up to 3 months but only in the same calendar year. No retroactive eligibility to the previous year. 7.

QMBs -Special Rules on Cost-Sharing. QMB is the only MSP program which pays not only the Part B premium, but also the Medicare co-insurance. However, there are limitations.

First, co-insurance will only be paid if the provide accepts Medicaid. Not all Medicare provides accept Medicaid. Second, under recent changes in New York law, Medicaid will not always pay the Medicare co-insurance, even to a Medicaid provider.

But even if the provider does not accept Medicaid, or if Medicaid does not pay the full co-insurance, the provider is banned from "balance billing" the QMB beneficiary for the co-insurance. Click here for an article that explains all of these rules. This article was authored by the Empire Justice Center.THE PROBLEM.

Meet Joe, whose Doctor has Billed him for the Medicare Coinsurance Joe Client is disabled and has SSD, Medicaid and Qualified Medicare Beneficiary (QMB). His health care is covered by Medicare, and Medicaid and the QMB program pick up his Medicare cost-sharing obligations. Under Medicare Part B, his co-insurance is 20% of the Medicare-approved charge for most outpatient services.

He went to the doctor recently and, as with any other Medicare beneficiary, the doctor handed him a bill for his co-pay. Now Joe has a bill that he can’t pay. Read below to find out -- SHORT ANSWER.

QMB or Medicaid will pay the Medicare coinsurance only in limited situations. First, the provider must be a Medicaid provider. Second, even if the provider accepts Medicaid, under recent legislation in New York enacted in 2015 and 2016, QMB or Medicaid may pay only part of the coinsurance, or none at all.

This depends in part on whether the beneficiary has Original Medicare or is in a Medicare Advantage plan, and in part on the type of service. However, the bottom line is that the provider is barred from "balance billing" a QMB beneficiary for the Medicare coinsurance. Unfortunately, this creates tension between an individual and her doctors, pharmacies dispensing Part B medications, and other providers.

Providers may not know they are not allowed to bill a QMB beneficiary for Medicare coinsurance, since they bill other Medicare beneficiaries. Even those who know may pressure their patients to pay, or simply decline to serve them. These rights and the ramifications of these QMB rules are explained in this article.

CMS is doing more education about QMB Rights. The Medicare Handbook, since 2017, gives information about QMB Protections. Download the 2020 Medicare Handbook here.

To Which Providers will QMB or Medicaid Pay the Medicare Co-Insurance?. "Providers must enroll as Medicaid providers in order to bill Medicaid for the Medicare coinsurance." CMS Informational Bulletin issued January 6, 2012, titled "Billing for Services Provided to Qualified Medicare Beneficiaries (QMBs). The CMS bulletin states, "If the provider wants Medicaid to pay the coinsurance, then the provider must register as a Medicaid provider under the state rules." If the provider chooses not to enroll as a Medicaid provider, they still may not "balance bill" the QMB recipient for the coinsurance.

2. How Does a Provider that DOES accept Medicaid Bill for a QMB Beneficiary?. If beneficiary has Original Medicare -- The provider bills Medicaid - even if the QMB Beneficiary does not also have Medicaid.

Medicaid is required to pay the provider for all Medicare Part A and B cost-sharing charges, even if the service is normally not covered by Medicaid (ie, chiropractic, podiatry and clinical social work care). Whatever reimbursement Medicaid pays the provider constitutes by law payment in full, and the provider cannot bill the beneficiary for any difference remaining. 42 U.S.C.

§ 1396a(n)(3)(A), NYS DOH 2000-ADM-7 If the QMB beneficiary is in a Medicare Advantage plan - The provider bills the Medicare Advantage plan, then bills Medicaid for the balance using a “16” code to get paid. The provider must include the amount it received from Medicare Advantage plan. 3.

For a Provider who accepts Medicaid, How Much of the Medicare Coinsurance will be Paid for a QMB or Medicaid Beneficiary in NYS?. The answer to this question has changed by laws enacted in 2015 and 2016. In the proposed 2019 State Budget, Gov.

Cuomo has proposed to reduce how much Medicaid pays for the Medicare costs even further. The amount Medicaid pays is different depending on whether the individual has Original Medicare or is a Medicare Advantage plan, with better payment for those in Medicare Advantage plans. The answer also differs based on the type of service.

Part A Deductibles and Coinsurance - Medicaid pays the full Part A hospital deductible ($1,408 in 2020) and Skilled Nursing Facility coinsurance ($176/day) for days 20 - 100 of a rehab stay. Full payment is made for QMB beneficiaries and Medicaid recipients who have no spend-down. Payments are reduced if the beneficiary has a Medicaid spend-down.

For in-patient hospital deductible, Medicaid will pay only if six times the monthly spend-down has been met. For example, if Mary has a $200/month spend down which has not been met otherwise, Medicaid will pay only $164 of the hospital deductible (the amount exceeding 6 x $200). See more on spend-down here.

Medicare Part B - Deductible - Currently, Medicaid pays the full Medicare approved charges until the beneficiary has met the annual deductible, which is $198 in 2020. For example, Dr. John charges $500 for a visit, for which the Medicare approved charge is $198.

Medicaid pays the entire $198, meeting the deductible. If the beneficiary has a spend-down, then the Medicaid payment would be subject to the spend-down. In the 2019 proposed state budget, Gov.

Cuomo proposed to reduce the amount Medicaid pays toward the deductible to the same amount paid for coinsurance during the year, described below. This proposal was REJECTED by the state legislature. Co-Insurance - The amount medicaid pays in NYS is different for Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage.

If individual has Original Medicare, QMB/Medicaid will pay the 20% Part B coinsurance only to the extent the total combined payment the provider receives from Medicare and Medicaid is the lesser of the Medicaid or Medicare rate for the service. For example, if the Medicare rate for a service is $100, the coinsurance is $20. If the Medicaid rate for the same service is only $80 or less, Medicaid would pay nothing, as it would consider the doctor fully paid = the provider has received the full Medicaid rate, which is lesser than the Medicare rate.

Exceptions - Medicaid/QMB wil pay the full coinsurance for the following services, regardless of the Medicaid rate. ambulance and psychologists - The Gov's 2019 proposal to eliminate these exceptions was rejected. hospital outpatient clinic, certain facilities operating under certificates issued under the Mental Hygiene Law for people with developmental disabilities, psychiatric disability, and chemical dependence (Mental Hygiene Law Articles 16, 31 or 32).

SSL 367-a, subd. 1(d)(iii)-(v) , as amended 2015 If individual is in a Medicare Advantage plan, 85% of the copayment will be paid to the provider (must be a Medicaid provider), regardless of how low the Medicaid rate is. This limit was enacted in the 2016 State Budget, and is better than what the Governor proposed - which was the same rule used in Original Medicare -- NONE of the copayment or coinsurance would be paid if the Medicaid rate was lower than the Medicare rate for the service, which is usually the case.

This would have deterred doctors and other providers from being willing to treat them. SSL 367-a, subd. 1(d)(iv), added 2016.

EXCEPTIONS. The Medicare Advantage plan must pay the full coinsurance for the following services, regardless of the Medicaid rate. ambulance ) psychologist ) The Gov's proposal in the 2019 budget to eliminate these exceptions was rejected by the legislature Example to illustrate the current rules.

The Medicare rate for Mary's specialist visit is $185. The Medicaid rate for the same service is $120. Current rules (since 2016).

Medicare Advantage -- Medicare Advantage plan pays $135 and Mary is charged a copayment of $50 (amount varies by plan). Medicaid pays the specialist 85% of the $50 copayment, which is $42.50. The doctor is prohibited by federal law from "balance billing" QMB beneficiaries for the balance of that copayment.

Since provider is getting $177.50 of the $185 approved rate, provider will hopefully not be deterred from serving Mary or other QMBs/Medicaid recipients. Original Medicare - The 20% coinsurance is $37. Medicaid pays none of the coinsurance because the Medicaid rate ($120) is lower than the amount the provider already received from Medicare ($148).

For both Medicare Advantage and Original Medicare, if the bill was for a ambulance or psychologist, Medicaid would pay the full 20% coinsurance regardless of the Medicaid rate. The proposal to eliminate this exception was rejected by the legislature in 2019 budget. .

4. May the Provider 'Balance Bill" a QMB Benficiary for the Coinsurance if Provider Does Not Accept Medicaid, or if Neither the Patient or Medicaid/QMB pays any coinsurance?. No.

Balance billing is banned by the Balanced Budget Act of 1997. 42 U.S.C. § 1396a(n)(3)(A).

In an Informational Bulletin issued January 6, 2012, titled "Billing for Services Provided to Qualified Medicare Beneficiaries (QMBs)," the federal Medicare agency - CMS - clarified that providers MAY NOT BILL QMB recipients for the Medicare coinsurance. This is true whether or not the provider is registered as a Medicaid provider. If the provider wants Medicaid to pay the coinsurance, then the provider must register as a Medicaid provider under the state rules.

This is a change in policy in implementing Section 1902(n)(3)(B) of the Social Security Act (the Act), as modified by section 4714 of the Balanced Budget Act of 1997, which prohibits Medicare providers from balance-billing QMBs for Medicare cost-sharing. The CMS letter states, "All Medicare physicians, providers, and suppliers who offer services and supplies to QMBs are prohibited from billing QMBs for Medicare cost-sharing, including deductible, coinsurance, and copayments. This section of the Act is available at.

CMCS Informational Bulletin http://www.ssa.gov/OP_Home/ssact/title19/1902.htm. QMBs have no legal obligation to make further payment to a provider or Medicare managed care plan for Part A or Part B cost sharing. Providers who inappropriately bill QMBs for Medicare cost-sharing are subject to sanctions.

Please note that the statute referenced above supersedes CMS State Medicaid Manual, Chapter 3, Eligibility, 3490.14 (b), which is no longer in effect, but may be causing confusion about QMB billing." The same information was sent to providers in this Medicare Learning Network bulletin, last revised in June 26, 2018. CMS reminded Medicare Advantage plans of the rule against Balance Billing in the 2017 Call Letter for plan renewals. See this excerpt of the 2017 call letter by Justice in Aging - Prohibition on Billing Medicare-Medicaid Enrollees for Medicare Cost Sharing 5.

How do QMB Beneficiaries Show a Provider that they have QMB and cannot be Billed for the Coinsurance?. It can be difficult to show a provider that one is a QMB. It is especially difficult for providers who are not Medicaid providers to identify QMB's, since they do not have access to online Medicaid eligibility systems Consumers can now call 1-800-MEDICARE to verify their QMB Status and report a billing issue.

If a consumer reports a balance billng problem to this number, the Customer Service Rep can escalate the complaint to the Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC), which will send a compliance letter to the provider with a copy to the consumer. See CMS Medicare Learning Network Bulletin effective Dec. 16, 2016.

Medicare Summary Notices (MSNs) that Medicare beneficiaries receive every three months state that QMBs have no financial liability for co-insurance for each Medicare-covered service listed on the MSN. The Remittance Advice (RA) that Medicare sends to providers shows the same information. By spelling out billing protections on a service-by-service basis, the MSNs provide clarity for both the QMB beneficiary and the provider.

Justice in Aging has posted samples of what the new MSNs look like here. They have also updated Justice in Aging’s Improper Billing Toolkit to incorporate references to the MSNs in its model letters that you can use to advocate for clients who have been improperly billed for Medicare-covered services. CMS is implementing systems changes that will notify providers when they process a Medicare claim that the patient is QMB and has no cost-sharing liability.

The Medicare Summary Notice sent to the beneficiary will also state that the beneficiary has QMB and no liability. These changes were scheduled to go into effect in October 2017, but have been delayed. Read more about them in this Justice in Aging Issue Brief on New Strategies in Fighting Improper Billing for QMBs (Feb.

2017). QMBs are issued a Medicaid benefit card (by mail), even if they do not also receive Medicaid. The card is the mechanism for health care providers to bill the QMB program for the Medicare deductibles and co-pays.

Unfortunately, the Medicaid card dos not indicate QMB eligibility. Not all people who have Medicaid also have QMB (they may have higher incomes and "spend down" to the Medicaid limits. Advocates have asked for a special QMB card, or a notation on the Medicaid card to show that the individual has QMB.

See this Report - a National Survey on QMB Identification Practices published by Justice in Aging, authored by Peter Travitsky, NYLAG EFLRP staff attorney. The Report, published in March 2017, documents how QMB beneficiaries could be better identified in order to ensure providers do not bill them improperly. 6.

If you are Billed -​ Strategies Consumers can now call 1-800-MEDICARE to report a billing issue. If a consumer reports a balance billng problem to this number, the Customer Service Rep can escalate the complaint to the Medicare Administrative Contractor (MAC), which will send a compliance letter to the provider with a copy to the consumer. See CMS Medicare Learning Network Bulletin effective Dec.

16, 2016. Send a letter to the provider, using the Justice In Aging Model model letters to providers to explain QMB rights.​​​ both for Original Medicare (Letters 1-2) and Medicare Advantage (Letters 3-5) - see Overview of model letters. Include a link to the CMS Medicare Learning Network Notice.

The B.1.1.7 wave peaked during the first week of March, and the rapid expansion of B.1.351 started in mid-March and continues to the present day. Viral genome sequencing conducted cialis coupon walmart from February 23 through March 18 indicated that 50.0% of cases of erectile dysfunction treatment in Qatar were caused by B.1.351 and 44.5% were caused by B.1.1.7.

Nearly all cases in which cialis was sequenced after March 7 were caused by either B.1.351 or B.1.1.7.

Local and Systemic Reactogenicity in Pregnant Persons Table 1. Table 1. Characteristics of Persons Who Identified as Pregnant in the V-safe Surveillance System and Received an mRNA erectile dysfunction treatment.

Table 2. Table 2. Frequency of Local and Systemic Reactions Reported on the Day after mRNA erectile dysfunction treatment Vaccination in Pregnant Persons.

From December 14, 2020, to February 28, 2021, a total of 35,691 v-safe participants identified as pregnant. Age distributions were similar among the participants who received the Pfizer–BioNTech treatment and those who received the Moderna treatment, with the majority of the participants being 25 to 34 years of age (61.9% and 60.6% for each treatment, respectively) and non-Hispanic White (76.2% and 75.4%, respectively). Most participants (85.8% and 87.4%, respectively) reported being pregnant at the time of vaccination (Table 1).

Solicited reports of injection-site pain, fatigue, headache, and myalgia were the most frequent local and systemic reactions after either dose for both treatments (Table 2) and were reported more frequently after dose 2 for both treatments. Participant-measured temperature at or above 38°C was reported by less than 1% of the participants on day 1 after dose 1 and by 8.0% after dose 2 for both treatments. Figure 1.

Figure 1. Most Frequent Local and Systemic Reactions Reported in the V-safe Surveillance System on the Day after mRNA erectile dysfunction treatment Vaccination. Shown are solicited reactions in pregnant persons and nonpregnant women 16 to 54 years of age who received a messenger RNA (mRNA) erectile dysfunction disease 2019 (erectile dysfunction treatment) treatment — BNT162b2 (Pfizer–BioNTech) or mRNA-1273 (Moderna) — from December 14, 2020, to February 28, 2021.

The percentage of respondents was calculated among those who completed a day 1 survey, with the top events shown of injection-site pain (pain), fatigue or tiredness (fatigue), headache, muscle or body aches (myalgia), chills, and fever or felt feverish (fever).These patterns of reporting, with respect to both most frequently reported solicited reactions and the higher reporting of reactogenicity after dose 2, were similar to patterns observed among nonpregnant women (Figure 1). Small differences in reporting frequency between pregnant persons and nonpregnant women were observed for specific reactions (injection-site pain was reported more frequently among pregnant persons, and other systemic reactions were reported more frequently among nonpregnant women), but the overall reactogenicity profile was similar. Pregnant persons did not report having severe reactions more frequently than nonpregnant women, except for nausea and vomiting, which were reported slightly more frequently only after dose 2 (Table S3).

V-safe Pregnancy Registry. Pregnancy Outcomes and Neonatal Outcomes Table 3. Table 3.

Characteristics of V-safe Pregnancy Registry Participants. As of March 30, 2021, the v-safe pregnancy registry call center attempted to contact 5230 persons who were vaccinated through February 28, 2021, and who identified during a v-safe survey as pregnant at or shortly after erectile dysfunction treatment vaccination. Of these, 912 were unreachable, 86 declined to participate, and 274 did not meet inclusion criteria (e.g., were never pregnant, were pregnant but received vaccination more than 30 days before the last menstrual period, or did not provide enough information to determine eligibility).

The registry enrolled 3958 participants with vaccination from December 14, 2020, to February 28, 2021, of whom 3719 (94.0%) identified as health care personnel. Among enrolled participants, most were 25 to 44 years of age (98.8%), non-Hispanic White (79.0%), and, at the time of interview, did not report a erectile dysfunction treatment diagnosis during pregnancy (97.6%) (Table 3). Receipt of a first dose of treatment meeting registry-eligibility criteria was reported by 92 participants (2.3%) during the periconception period, by 1132 (28.6%) in the first trimester of pregnancy, by 1714 (43.3%) in the second trimester, and by 1019 (25.7%) in the third trimester (1 participant was missing information to determine the timing of vaccination) (Table 3).

Among 1040 participants (91.9%) who received a treatment in the first trimester and 1700 (99.2%) who received a treatment in the second trimester, initial data had been collected and follow-up scheduled at designated time points approximately 10 to 12 weeks apart. Limited follow-up calls had been made at the time of this analysis. Table 4.

Table 4. Pregnancy Loss and Neonatal Outcomes in Published Studies and V-safe Pregnancy Registry Participants. Among 827 participants who had a completed pregnancy, the pregnancy resulted in a live birth in 712 (86.1%), in a spontaneous abortion in 104 (12.6%), in stillbirth in 1 (0.1%), and in other outcomes (induced abortion and ectopic pregnancy) in 10 (1.2%).

A total of 96 of 104 spontaneous abortions (92.3%) occurred before 13 weeks of gestation (Table 4), and 700 of 712 pregnancies that resulted in a live birth (98.3%) were among persons who received their first eligible treatment dose in the third trimester. Adverse outcomes among 724 live-born infants — including 12 sets of multiple gestation — were preterm birth (60 of 636 among those vaccinated before 37 weeks [9.4%]), small size for gestational age (23 of 724 [3.2%]), and major congenital anomalies (16 of 724 [2.2%]). No neonatal deaths were reported at the time of interview.

Among the participants with completed pregnancies who reported congenital anomalies, none had received erectile dysfunction treatment in the first trimester or periconception period, and no specific pattern of congenital anomalies was observed. Calculated proportions of pregnancy and neonatal outcomes appeared similar to incidences published in the peer-reviewed literature (Table 4). Adverse-Event Findings on the VAERS During the analysis period, the VAERS received and processed 221 reports involving erectile dysfunction treatment vaccination among pregnant persons.

155 (70.1%) involved nonpregnancy-specific adverse events, and 66 (29.9%) involved pregnancy- or neonatal-specific adverse events (Table S4). The most frequently reported pregnancy-related adverse events were spontaneous abortion (46 cases. 37 in the first trimester, 2 in the second trimester, and 7 in which the trimester was unknown or not reported), followed by stillbirth, premature rupture of membranes, and vaginal bleeding, with 3 reports for each.

No congenital anomalies were reported to the VAERS, a requirement under the EUAs.Participants Figure 1. Figure 1. Enrollment and Randomization.

The diagram represents all enrolled participants through November 14, 2020. The safety subset (those with a median of 2 months of follow-up, in accordance with application requirements for Emergency Use Authorization) is based on an October 9, 2020, data cut-off date. The further procedures that one participant in the placebo group declined after dose 2 (lower right corner of the diagram) were those involving collection of blood and nasal swab samples.Table 1.

Table 1. Demographic Characteristics of the Participants in the Main Safety Population. Between July 27, 2020, and November 14, 2020, a total of 44,820 persons were screened, and 43,548 persons 16 years of age or older underwent randomization at 152 sites worldwide (United States, 130 sites.

Germany, 6. And Turkey, 9) in the phase 2/3 portion of the trial. A total of 43,448 participants received injections.

21,720 received BNT162b2 and 21,728 received placebo (Figure 1). At the data cut-off date of October 9, a total of 37,706 participants had a median of at least 2 months of safety data available after the second dose and contributed to the main safety data set. Among these 37,706 participants, 49% were female, 83% were White, 9% were Black or African American, 28% were Hispanic or Latinx, 35% were obese (body mass index [the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters] of at least 30.0), and 21% had at least one coexisting condition.

The median age was 52 years, and 42% of participants were older than 55 years of age (Table 1 and Table S2). Safety Local Reactogenicity Figure 2. Figure 2.

Local and Systemic Reactions Reported within 7 Days after Injection of BNT162b2 or Placebo, According to Age Group. Data on local and systemic reactions and use of medication were collected with electronic diaries from participants in the reactogenicity subset (8,183 participants) for 7 days after each vaccination. Solicited injection-site (local) reactions are shown in Panel A.

Pain at the injection site was assessed according to the following scale. Mild, does not interfere with activity. Moderate, interferes with activity.

Severe, prevents daily activity. And grade 4, emergency department visit or hospitalization. Redness and swelling were measured according to the following scale.

Mild, 2.0 to 5.0 cm in diameter. Moderate, >5.0 to 10.0 cm in diameter. Severe, >10.0 cm in diameter.

And grade 4, necrosis or exfoliative dermatitis (for http://vikingfilm.nl/nieuws/ redness) and necrosis (for swelling). Systemic events and medication use are shown in Panel B. Fever categories are designated in the key.

Medication use was not graded. Additional scales were as follows. Fatigue, headache, chills, new or worsened muscle pain, new or worsened joint pain (mild.

Does not interfere with activity. Moderate. Some interference with activity.

Or severe. Prevents daily activity), vomiting (mild. 1 to 2 times in 24 hours.

Moderate. >2 times in 24 hours. Or severe.

Requires intravenous hydration), and diarrhea (mild. 2 to 3 loose stools in 24 hours. Moderate.

4 to 5 loose stools in 24 hours. Or severe. 6 or more loose stools in 24 hours).

Grade 4 for all events indicated an emergency department visit or hospitalization. Н™¸ bars represent 95% confidence intervals, and numbers above the 𝙸 bars are the percentage of participants who reported the specified reaction.The reactogenicity subset included 8183 participants. Overall, BNT162b2 recipients reported more local reactions than placebo recipients.

Among BNT162b2 recipients, mild-to-moderate pain at the injection site within 7 days after an injection was the most commonly reported local reaction, with less than 1% of participants across all age groups reporting severe pain (Figure 2). Pain was reported less frequently among participants older than 55 years of age (71% reported pain after the first dose. 66% after the second dose) than among younger participants (83% after the first dose.

78% after the second dose). A noticeably lower percentage of participants reported injection-site redness or swelling. The proportion of participants reporting local reactions did not increase after the second dose (Figure 2A), and no participant reported a grade 4 local reaction.

In general, local reactions were mostly mild-to-moderate in severity and resolved within 1 to 2 days. Systemic Reactogenicity Systemic events were reported more often by younger treatment recipients (16 to 55 years of age) than by older treatment recipients (more than 55 years of age) in the reactogenicity subset and more often after dose 2 than dose 1 (Figure 2B). The most commonly reported systemic events were fatigue and headache (59% and 52%, respectively, after the second dose, among younger treatment recipients.

51% and 39% among older recipients), although fatigue and headache were also reported by many placebo recipients (23% and 24%, respectively, after the second dose, among younger treatment recipients. 17% and 14% among older recipients). The frequency of any severe systemic event after the first dose was 0.9% or less.

Severe systemic events were reported in less than 2% of treatment recipients after either dose, except for fatigue (in 3.8%) and headache (in 2.0%) after the second dose. Fever (temperature, ≥38°C) was reported after the second dose by 16% of younger treatment recipients and by 11% of older recipients. Only 0.2% of treatment recipients and 0.1% of placebo recipients reported fever (temperature, 38.9 to 40°C) after the first dose, as compared with 0.8% and 0.1%, respectively, after the second dose.

Two participants each in the treatment and placebo groups reported temperatures above 40.0°C. Younger treatment recipients were more likely to use antipyretic or pain medication (28% after dose 1. 45% after dose 2) than older treatment recipients (20% after dose 1.

38% after dose 2), and placebo recipients were less likely (10 to 14%) than treatment recipients to use the medications, regardless of age or dose. Systemic events including fever and chills were observed within the first 1 to 2 days after vaccination and resolved shortly thereafter. Daily use of the electronic diary ranged from 90 to 93% for each day after the first dose and from 75 to 83% for each day after the second dose.

No difference was noted between the BNT162b2 group and the placebo group. Adverse Events Adverse event analyses are provided for all enrolled 43,252 participants, with variable follow-up time after dose 1 (Table S3). More BNT162b2 recipients than placebo recipients reported any adverse event (27% and 12%, respectively) or a related adverse event (21% and 5%).

This distribution largely reflects the inclusion of transient reactogenicity events, which were reported as adverse events more commonly by treatment recipients than by placebo recipients. Sixty-four treatment recipients (0.3%) and 6 placebo recipients (<0.1%) reported lymphadenopathy. Few participants in either group had severe adverse events, serious adverse events, or adverse events leading to withdrawal from the trial.

Four related serious adverse events were reported among BNT162b2 recipients (shoulder injury related to treatment administration, right axillary lymphadenopathy, paroxysmal ventricular arrhythmia, and right leg paresthesia). Two BNT162b2 recipients died (one from arteriosclerosis, one from cardiac arrest), as did four placebo recipients (two from unknown causes, one from hemorrhagic stroke, and one from myocardial infarction). No deaths were considered by the investigators to be related to the treatment or placebo.

No erectile dysfunction treatment–associated deaths were observed. No stopping rules were met during the reporting period. Safety monitoring will continue for 2 years after administration of the second dose of treatment.

Figure 3. Figure 3. Efficacy of BNT162b2 against erectile dysfunction treatment after the First Dose.

Shown is the cumulative incidence of erectile dysfunction treatment after the first dose (modified intention-to-treat population). Each symbol represents erectile dysfunction treatment cases starting on a given day. Filled symbols represent severe erectile dysfunction treatment cases.

Some symbols represent more than one case, owing to overlapping dates. The inset shows the same data on an enlarged y axis, through 21 days. Surveillance time is the total time in 1000 person-years for the given end point across all participants within each group at risk for the end point.

The time period for erectile dysfunction treatment case accrual is from the first dose to the end of the surveillance period. The confidence interval (CI) for treatment efficacy (VE) is derived according to the Clopper–Pearson method.Among 36,523 participants who had no evidence of existing or prior erectile dysfunction , 8 cases of erectile dysfunction treatment with onset at least 7 days after the second dose were observed among treatment recipients and 162 among placebo recipients. This case split corresponds to 95.0% treatment efficacy (95% confidence interval [CI], 90.3 to 97.6.

Table 2). Among participants with and those without evidence of prior SARS CoV-2 , 9 cases of erectile dysfunction treatment at least 7 days after the second dose were observed among treatment recipients and 169 among placebo recipients, corresponding to 94.6% treatment efficacy (95% CI, 89.9 to 97.3). Supplemental analyses indicated that treatment efficacy among subgroups defined by age, sex, race, ethnicity, obesity, and presence of a coexisting condition was generally consistent with that observed in the overall population (Table 3 and Table S4).

treatment efficacy among participants with hypertension was analyzed separately but was consistent with the other subgroup analyses (treatment efficacy, 94.6%. 95% CI, 68.7 to 99.9. Case split.

BNT162b2, 2 cases. Placebo, 44 cases). Figure 3 shows cases of erectile dysfunction treatment or severe erectile dysfunction treatment with onset at any time after the first dose (mITT population) (additional data on severe erectile dysfunction treatment are available in Table S5).

Between the first dose and the second dose, 39 cases in the BNT162b2 group and 82 cases in the placebo group were observed, resulting in a treatment efficacy of 52% (95% CI, 29.5 to 68.4) during this interval and indicating early protection by the treatment, starting as soon as 12 days after the first dose.Trial Design and Participants From August 17, 2020, through November 25, 2020, we enrolled participants at 16 sites in South Africa. The trial was designed to provide a preliminary evaluation of treatment safety and efficacy during ongoing cialis transmission of erectile dysfunction. Participants were healthy adults between the ages of 18 and 84 years without human immunodeficiency cialis (HIV) or a subgroup of adults between the ages of 18 and 64 years with HIV whose condition was medically stable.

Baseline IgG antibodies against the spike protein (anti-spike IgG antibodies) were measured at study entry to help determine baseline erectile dysfunction serostatus for the analysis of treatment efficacy. As a safety measure, enrollment was staggered into stage 1 (defined by the first third of targeted enrollment) and stage 2 (the remainder of enrollment) for both HIV-negative and HIV-positive participants. Progression from stage 1 to stage 2 in each group required a favorable review of safety data through day 7 from the previous stage against prespecified rules that would trigger a pause in treatment administration.

(Details regarding the participants in each stage are provided in Table S1 in the Supplementary Appendix, available with the full text of this article at NEJM.org.) Key exclusion criteria were pregnancy, long-term receipt of immunosuppressive therapy, autoimmune or immunodeficiency disease except for medically stable HIV , a history of confirmed or suspected erectile dysfunction treatment, and erectile dysfunction as confirmed on a nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) performed as part of screening within 5 days before anticipated initial administration of the treatment or placebo. All the participants provided written informed consent before enrollment. Additional details regarding the trial design, conduct, oversight, and analyses are provided in the Supplementary Appendix and the protocol (which includes the statistical analysis plan), available at NEJM.org.

Oversight The NVX-CoV2373 treatment was developed by Novavax, which sponsored the trial and was responsible for the overall design (with input from the lead investigator), site selection, monitoring, and analysis. Trial investigators were responsible for data collection. The protocol was approved by the South African Health Products Regulatory Authority and by the institutional review board at each trial center.

Oversight of safety, which included monitoring for specific vaccination-pause rules, was performed by an independent safety monitoring committee. The first author wrote the first draft of the manuscript with assistance from a medical writer who is an author and an employee of Novavax. All the authors made the decision to submit the manuscript for publication and vouch for the accuracy and completeness of the data and for the fidelity of the trial to the protocol.

Trial Procedures Participants were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive two intramuscular injections, 21 days apart, of either NVX-CoV2373 (5 μg of recombinant spike protein with 50 μg of Matrix-M1 adjuvant) or saline placebo (injection volume, 0.5 ml), administered by staff members who were aware of trial-group assignments but were not otherwise involved with other trial procedures or data collection. All other staff members and trial participants remained unaware of trial-group assignments. Participants were scheduled for in-person follow-up visits on days 7, 21, and 35 and at 3 months and 6 months to collect vital signs, review any adverse events, discuss changes in concomitant medications, and obtain blood samples for immunogenicity analyses.

A follow-up telephone visit was scheduled for 12 months after vaccination. Safety Assessments The primary safety end points were the occurrence of all unsolicited adverse events, including those that were medically attended, serious, or of special interest, through day 35 (Tables S2 and S3) and solicited local and systemic adverse events that were evaluated by means of a reactogenicity diary for 7 days after each vaccination (Tables S4 and S5). Safety follow-up was ongoing through month 12.

Efficacy Assessments The primary efficacy end point was confirmed symptomatic erectile dysfunction treatment that was categorized as mild, moderate, or severe (hereafter called symptomatic erectile dysfunction treatment) and that occurred within 7 days after receipt of the second injection (i.e., after day 28) (Table S6). Starting on day 8 and continuing through 12 months, we performed active surveillance (telephone calls every 2 weeks from trial sites to participants) and passive surveillance (telephone contact at any time from participants to trial sites) for symptoms of suspected erectile dysfunction treatment (Table S7 and Fig. S1).

A new onset of suspected symptoms of erectile dysfunction treatment triggered initial in-person and follow-up surveillance visits to perform clinical assessments (vital signs, including pulse oximetry, and a lung examination) and for collection of nasal swabs (Fig. S2). In addition, suspected erectile dysfunction treatment symptoms were also assessed and nasal swabs collected at all scheduled trial visits.

Nasal-swab samples were tested for the presence of erectile dysfunction by NAAT with the use of the BD MAX system (Becton Dickinson). We used the InFLUenza Patient-Reported Outcome (FLU-PRO) questionnaire to comprehensively assess symptoms for the first 10 days of a suspected episode of erectile dysfunction treatment. Whole-Genome Sequencing In a blinded fashion, we performed post hoc whole-genome sequencing of nasal samples obtained from all the participants who had symptomatic erectile dysfunction treatment.

Details regarding the whole-genome sequencing methods and phylogenetic analysis are provided in Fig. S3. Statistical Analysis The safety analysis population included all the participants who had received at least one injection of NVX-CoV2373 or placebo.

Regardless of group assignment, participants were evaluated according to the intervention they had actually received. Safety analyses were presented as numbers and percentages of participants who had solicited local and systemic adverse events through day 7 after each vaccination and who had unsolicited adverse events through day 35. We performed a per-protocol efficacy analysis in the population of participants who had been seronegative for erectile dysfunction at baseline and who had received both injections of NVX-CoV2373 or placebo as assigned, had no evidence of erectile dysfunction (by NAAT or anti-spike IgG analysis) within 7 days after the second injection (i.e., before day 28), and had no major protocol deviations affecting the primary efficacy outcome.

A second per-protocol efficacy analysis population was defined in a similar fashion except that participants who were seropositive for erectile dysfunction at baseline could be included. treatment efficacy (calculated as a percentage) was defined as (1–RR)×100, where RR is the relative risk of erectile dysfunction treatment illness in the treatment group as compared with the placebo group. The official, event-driven efficacy analysis targeted a minimum number of 23 end points (range, 23 to 50) to provide approximately 90% power to detect treatment efficacy of 80% on the basis of an incidence of symptomatic erectile dysfunction treatment of 2 to 6% in the placebo group.

This analysis was performed at an overall one-sided type I error rate of 0.025 for the single primary efficacy end point. The relative risk and its confidence interval were estimated with the use of Poisson regression with robust error variance. Hypothesis testing of the primary efficacy end point was performed against the null hypothesis of treatment efficacy of 0%.

The success criterion required rejection of the null hypothesis to show a statistically significant treatment efficacy..

To The how do i get cialis Editor best price cialis 20mg. The messenger RNA treatment BNT162b2 (Pfizer–BioNTech) has 95% efficacy against erectile dysfunction disease 2019 (erectile dysfunction treatment).1 Qatar how do i get cialis launched a mass immunization campaign with this treatment on December 21, 2020. As of March 31, 2021, a total of 385,853 persons had received at least one treatment dose and 265,410 had completed the two doses. Vaccination scale-up occurred as Qatar was undergoing its second and third waves of severe acute respiratory syndrome erectile dysfunction 2 (erectile dysfunction) , which were triggered by expansion of the B.1.1.7 variant (starting in mid-January 2021) and the B.1.351 variant (starting in how do i get cialis mid-February 2021). The B.1.1.7 wave peaked during the first week of March, and the rapid expansion of B.1.351 started in mid-March and continues to the present day.

Viral genome sequencing how do i get cialis conducted from February 23 through March 18 indicated that 50.0% of cases of erectile dysfunction treatment in Qatar were caused by B.1.351 and 44.5% were caused by B.1.1.7. Nearly all cases in which cialis was sequenced after March 7 were caused by either B.1.351 or B.1.1.7. Data on vaccinations, polymerase-chain-reaction testing, and clinical characteristics were extracted from the national, federated erectile dysfunction treatment databases that have captured all erectile dysfunction–related data since the start of the epidemic (Section S1 of the Supplementary Appendix, available with the full text how do i get cialis of this letter at NEJM.org). treatment effectiveness was estimated with a test-negative case–control study design, a preferred design for assessing treatment effectiveness against influenza (see the Supplementary Appendix).2 A key strength of this design is the ability to control for bias that may result from differences in health care–seeking behavior between vaccinated and unvaccinated persons.2 Table 1. Table 1 how do i get cialis.

treatment Effectiveness against and against Disease in Qatar. The estimated effectiveness of the treatment against any documented with the B.1.1.7 variant was 89.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 85.9 to 92.3) at 14 or more days after the second dose (Table 1 and how do i get cialis Table S2). The effectiveness against any documented with the B.1.351 variant was 75.0% (95% CI, 70.5 to 78.9). treatment effectiveness against severe, critical, or fatal disease due to with any erectile dysfunction (with the B.1.1.7 and B.1.351 variants being predominant within Qatar) was very high, at 97.4% how do i get cialis (95% CI, 92.2 to 99.5). Sensitivity analyses confirmed these results (Table S3).

treatment effectiveness was also assessed with the use of a cohort study design by comparing the incidence of how do i get cialis among vaccinated persons with the incidence in the national cohort of persons who were antibody-negative (Section S2). Effectiveness was estimated to be 87.0% (95% CI, 81.8 to 90.7) against the B.1.1.7 variant and 72.1% (95% CI, 66.4 to 76.8) against the B.1.351 variant, findings that confirm the results reported above. The BNT162b2 treatment was effective against and disease in the how do i get cialis population of Qatar, despite the B.1.1.7 and B.1.351 variants being predominant within the country. However, treatment effectiveness against the B.1.351 variant was approximately 20 percentage points lower than the effectiveness (>90%) reported in the clinical trial1 and in real-world conditions in Israel4 and the United States.5 In Qatar, as of March 31, breakthrough s have been recorded in 6689 persons who had received one dose of the treatment and in 1616 persons who had received two doses. Seven deaths from erectile dysfunction treatment have been how do i get cialis also recorded among vaccinated persons.

Five after the first dose and two after the second dose. Nevertheless, the reduced protection against with the B.1.351 variant did not seem to translate into poor protection against the most how do i get cialis severe forms of (i.e., those resulting in hospitalization or death), which was robust, at greater than 90%.

Characteristics of Persons Who Identified as Pregnant in the V-safe Surveillance System and Received an mRNA erectile dysfunction treatment. Table 2.

Table 2. Frequency of Local and Systemic Reactions Reported on the Day after mRNA erectile dysfunction treatment Vaccination in Pregnant Persons. From December 14, 2020, to February 28, 2021, a total of 35,691 v-safe participants identified as pregnant. Age distributions were similar among the participants who received the Pfizer–BioNTech treatment and those who received the Moderna treatment, with the majority of the participants being 25 to 34 years of age (61.9% and 60.6% for each treatment, respectively) and non-Hispanic White (76.2% and 75.4%, respectively). Most participants (85.8% and 87.4%, respectively) reported being pregnant at the time of vaccination (Table 1).

Solicited reports of injection-site pain, fatigue, headache, and myalgia were the most frequent local and systemic reactions after either dose for both treatments (Table 2) and were reported more frequently after dose 2 for both treatments. Participant-measured temperature at or above 38°C was reported by less than 1% of the participants on day 1 after dose 1 and by 8.0% after dose 2 for both treatments. Figure 1. Figure 1. Most Frequent Local and Systemic Reactions Reported in the V-safe Surveillance System on the Day after mRNA erectile dysfunction treatment Vaccination.

Shown are solicited reactions in pregnant persons and nonpregnant women 16 to 54 years of age who received a messenger RNA (mRNA) erectile dysfunction disease 2019 (erectile dysfunction treatment) treatment — BNT162b2 (Pfizer–BioNTech) or mRNA-1273 (Moderna) — from December 14, 2020, to February 28, 2021. The percentage of respondents was calculated among those who completed a day 1 survey, with the top events shown of injection-site pain (pain), fatigue or tiredness (fatigue), headache, muscle or body aches (myalgia), chills, and fever or felt feverish (fever).These patterns of reporting, with respect to both most frequently reported solicited reactions and the higher reporting of reactogenicity after dose 2, were similar to patterns observed among nonpregnant women (Figure 1). Small differences in reporting frequency between pregnant persons and nonpregnant women were observed for specific reactions (injection-site pain was reported more frequently among pregnant persons, and other systemic reactions were reported more frequently among nonpregnant women), but the overall reactogenicity profile was similar. Pregnant persons did not report having severe reactions more frequently than nonpregnant women, except for nausea and vomiting, which were reported slightly more frequently only after dose 2 (Table S3). V-safe Pregnancy Registry.

Pregnancy Outcomes and Neonatal Outcomes Table 3. Table 3. Characteristics of V-safe Pregnancy Registry Participants. As of March 30, 2021, the v-safe pregnancy registry call center attempted to contact 5230 persons who were vaccinated through February 28, 2021, and who identified during a v-safe survey as pregnant at or shortly after erectile dysfunction treatment vaccination. Of these, 912 were unreachable, 86 declined to participate, and 274 did not meet inclusion criteria (e.g., were never pregnant, were pregnant but received vaccination more than 30 days before the last menstrual period, or did not provide enough information to determine eligibility).

The registry enrolled 3958 participants with vaccination from December 14, 2020, to February 28, 2021, of whom 3719 (94.0%) identified as health care personnel. Among enrolled participants, most were 25 to 44 years of age (98.8%), non-Hispanic White (79.0%), and, at the time of interview, did not report a erectile dysfunction treatment diagnosis during pregnancy (97.6%) (Table 3). Receipt of a first dose of treatment meeting registry-eligibility criteria was reported by 92 participants (2.3%) during the periconception period, by 1132 (28.6%) in the first trimester of pregnancy, by 1714 (43.3%) in the second trimester, and by 1019 (25.7%) in the third trimester (1 participant was missing information to determine the timing of vaccination) (Table 3). Among 1040 participants (91.9%) who received a treatment in the first trimester and 1700 (99.2%) who received a treatment in the second trimester, initial data had been collected and follow-up scheduled at designated time points approximately 10 to 12 weeks apart. Limited follow-up calls had been made at the time of this analysis.

Table 4. Table 4. Pregnancy Loss and Neonatal Outcomes in Published Studies and V-safe Pregnancy Registry Participants. Among 827 participants who had a completed pregnancy, the pregnancy resulted in a live birth in 712 (86.1%), in a spontaneous abortion in 104 (12.6%), in stillbirth in 1 (0.1%), and in other outcomes (induced abortion and ectopic pregnancy) in 10 (1.2%). A total of 96 of 104 spontaneous abortions (92.3%) occurred before 13 weeks of gestation (Table 4), and 700 of 712 pregnancies that resulted in a live birth (98.3%) were among persons who received their first eligible treatment dose in the third trimester.

Adverse outcomes among 724 live-born infants — including 12 sets of multiple gestation — were preterm birth (60 of 636 among those vaccinated before 37 weeks [9.4%]), small size for gestational age (23 of 724 [3.2%]), and major congenital anomalies (16 of 724 [2.2%]). No neonatal deaths were reported at the time of interview. Among the participants with completed pregnancies who reported congenital anomalies, none had received erectile dysfunction treatment in the first trimester or periconception period, and no specific pattern of congenital anomalies was observed. Calculated proportions of pregnancy and neonatal outcomes appeared similar to incidences published in the peer-reviewed literature (Table 4). Adverse-Event Findings on the VAERS During the analysis period, the VAERS received and processed 221 reports involving erectile dysfunction treatment vaccination among pregnant persons.

155 (70.1%) involved nonpregnancy-specific adverse events, and 66 (29.9%) involved pregnancy- or neonatal-specific adverse events (Table S4). The most frequently reported pregnancy-related adverse events were spontaneous abortion (46 cases. 37 in the first trimester, 2 in the second trimester, and 7 in which the trimester was unknown or not reported), followed by stillbirth, premature rupture of membranes, and vaginal bleeding, with 3 reports for each. No congenital anomalies were reported to the VAERS, a requirement under the EUAs.Participants Figure 1. Figure 1.

Enrollment and Randomization. The diagram represents all enrolled participants through November 14, 2020. The safety subset (those with a median of 2 months of follow-up, in accordance with application requirements for Emergency Use Authorization) is based on an October 9, 2020, data cut-off date. The further procedures that one participant in the placebo group declined after dose 2 (lower right corner of the diagram) were those involving collection of blood and nasal swab samples.Table 1. Table 1.

Demographic Characteristics of the Participants in the Main Safety Population. Between July 27, 2020, and November 14, 2020, a total of 44,820 persons were screened, and 43,548 persons 16 years of age or older underwent randomization at 152 sites worldwide (United States, 130 sites. Argentina, 1. Brazil, 2. South Africa, 4.

Germany, 6. And Turkey, 9) in the phase 2/3 portion of the trial. A total of 43,448 participants received injections. 21,720 received BNT162b2 and 21,728 received placebo (Figure 1). At the data cut-off date of October 9, a total of 37,706 participants had a median of at least 2 months of safety data available after the second dose and contributed to the main safety data set.

Among these 37,706 participants, 49% were female, 83% were White, 9% were Black or African American, 28% were Hispanic or Latinx, 35% were obese (body mass index [the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters] of at least 30.0), and 21% had at least one coexisting condition. The median age was 52 years, and 42% of participants were older than 55 years of age (Table 1 and Table S2). Safety Local Reactogenicity Figure 2. Figure 2. Local and Systemic Reactions Reported within 7 Days after Injection of BNT162b2 or Placebo, According to Age Group.

Data on local and systemic reactions and use of medication were collected with electronic diaries from participants in the reactogenicity subset (8,183 participants) for 7 days after each vaccination. Solicited injection-site (local) reactions are shown in Panel A. Pain at the injection site was assessed according to the following scale. Mild, does not interfere with activity. Moderate, interferes with activity.

Severe, prevents daily activity. And grade 4, emergency department visit or hospitalization. Redness and swelling were measured according to the following scale. Mild, 2.0 to 5.0 cm in diameter. Moderate, >5.0 to 10.0 cm in diameter.

Severe, >10.0 cm in diameter. And grade where is better to buy cialis 4, necrosis or exfoliative dermatitis (for redness) and necrosis (for swelling). Systemic events and medication use are shown in Panel B. Fever categories are designated in the key. Medication use was not graded.

Additional scales were as follows. Fatigue, headache, chills, new or worsened muscle pain, new or worsened joint pain (mild. Does not interfere with activity. Moderate. Some interference with activity.

Or severe. Prevents daily activity), vomiting (mild. 1 to 2 times in 24 hours. Moderate. >2 times in 24 hours.

Or severe. Requires intravenous hydration), and diarrhea (mild. 2 to 3 loose stools in 24 hours. Moderate. 4 to 5 loose stools in 24 hours.

Or severe. 6 or more loose stools in 24 hours). Grade 4 for all events indicated an emergency department visit or hospitalization. Н™¸ bars represent 95% confidence intervals, and numbers above the 𝙸 bars are the percentage of participants who reported the specified reaction.The reactogenicity subset included 8183 participants. Overall, BNT162b2 recipients reported more local reactions than placebo recipients.

Among BNT162b2 recipients, mild-to-moderate pain at the injection site within 7 days after an injection was the most commonly reported local reaction, with less than 1% of participants across all age groups reporting severe pain (Figure 2). Pain was reported less frequently among participants older than 55 years of age (71% reported pain after the first dose. 66% after the second dose) than among younger participants (83% after the first dose. 78% after the second dose). A noticeably lower percentage of participants reported injection-site redness or swelling.

The proportion of participants reporting local reactions did not increase after the second dose (Figure 2A), and no participant reported a grade 4 local reaction. In general, local reactions were mostly mild-to-moderate in severity and resolved within 1 to 2 days. Systemic Reactogenicity Systemic events were reported more often by younger treatment recipients (16 to 55 years of age) than by older treatment recipients (more than 55 years of age) in the reactogenicity subset and more often after dose 2 than dose 1 (Figure 2B). The most commonly reported systemic events were fatigue and headache (59% and 52%, respectively, after the second dose, among younger treatment recipients. 51% and 39% among older recipients), although fatigue and headache were also reported by many placebo recipients (23% and 24%, respectively, after the second dose, among younger treatment recipients.

17% and 14% among older recipients). The frequency of any severe systemic event after the first dose was 0.9% or less. Severe systemic events were reported in less than 2% of treatment recipients after either dose, except for fatigue (in 3.8%) and headache (in 2.0%) after the second dose. Fever (temperature, ≥38°C) was reported after the second dose by 16% of younger treatment recipients and by 11% of older recipients. Only 0.2% of treatment recipients and 0.1% of placebo recipients reported fever (temperature, 38.9 to 40°C) after the first dose, as compared with 0.8% and 0.1%, respectively, after the second dose.

Two participants each in the treatment and placebo groups reported temperatures above 40.0°C. Younger treatment recipients were more likely to use antipyretic or pain medication (28% after dose 1. 45% after dose 2) than older treatment recipients (20% after dose 1. 38% after dose 2), and placebo recipients were less likely (10 to 14%) than treatment recipients to use the medications, regardless of age or dose. Systemic events including fever and chills were observed within the first 1 to 2 days after vaccination and resolved shortly thereafter.

Daily use of the electronic diary ranged from 90 to 93% for each day after the first dose and from 75 to 83% for each day after the second dose. No difference was noted between the BNT162b2 group and the placebo group. Adverse Events Adverse event analyses are provided for all enrolled 43,252 participants, with variable follow-up time after dose 1 (Table S3). More BNT162b2 recipients than placebo recipients reported any adverse event (27% and 12%, respectively) or a related adverse event (21% and 5%). This distribution largely reflects the inclusion of transient reactogenicity events, which were reported as adverse events more commonly by treatment recipients than by placebo recipients.

Sixty-four treatment recipients (0.3%) and 6 placebo recipients (<0.1%) reported lymphadenopathy. Few participants in either group had severe adverse events, serious adverse events, or adverse events leading to withdrawal from the trial. Four related serious adverse events were reported among BNT162b2 recipients (shoulder injury related to treatment administration, right axillary lymphadenopathy, paroxysmal ventricular arrhythmia, and right leg paresthesia). Two BNT162b2 recipients died (one from arteriosclerosis, one from cardiac arrest), as did four placebo recipients (two from unknown causes, one from hemorrhagic stroke, and one from myocardial infarction). No deaths were considered by the investigators to be related to the treatment or placebo.

No erectile dysfunction treatment–associated deaths were observed. No stopping rules were met during the reporting period. Safety monitoring will continue for 2 years after administration of the second dose of treatment. Efficacy Table 2. Table 2.

Figure 3. Efficacy of BNT162b2 against erectile dysfunction treatment after the First Dose. Shown is the cumulative incidence of erectile dysfunction treatment after the first dose (modified intention-to-treat population). Each symbol represents erectile dysfunction treatment cases starting on a given day. Filled symbols represent severe erectile dysfunction treatment cases.

Some symbols represent more than one case, owing to overlapping dates. The inset shows the same data on an enlarged y axis, through 21 days. Surveillance time is the total time in 1000 person-years for the given end point across all participants within each group at risk for the end point. The time period for erectile dysfunction treatment case accrual is from the first dose to the end of the surveillance period. The confidence interval (CI) for treatment efficacy (VE) is derived according to the Clopper–Pearson method.Among 36,523 participants who had no evidence of existing or prior erectile dysfunction , 8 cases of erectile dysfunction treatment with onset at least 7 days after the second dose were observed among treatment recipients and 162 among placebo recipients.

This case split corresponds to 95.0% treatment efficacy (95% confidence interval [CI], 90.3 to 97.6. Table 2). Among participants with and those without evidence of prior SARS CoV-2 , 9 cases of erectile dysfunction treatment at least 7 days after the second dose were observed among treatment recipients and 169 among placebo recipients, corresponding to 94.6% treatment efficacy (95% CI, 89.9 to 97.3). Supplemental analyses indicated that treatment efficacy among subgroups defined by age, sex, race, ethnicity, obesity, and presence of a coexisting condition was generally consistent with that observed in the overall population (Table 3 and Table S4). treatment efficacy among participants with hypertension was analyzed separately but was consistent with the other subgroup analyses (treatment efficacy, 94.6%.

95% CI, 68.7 to 99.9. Case split. BNT162b2, 2 cases. Placebo, 44 cases). Figure 3 shows cases of erectile dysfunction treatment or severe erectile dysfunction treatment with onset at any time after the first dose (mITT population) (additional data on severe erectile dysfunction treatment are available in Table S5).

Between the first dose and the second dose, 39 cases in the BNT162b2 group and 82 cases in the placebo group were observed, resulting in a treatment efficacy of 52% (95% CI, 29.5 to 68.4) during this interval and indicating early protection by the treatment, starting as soon as 12 days after the first dose.Trial Design and Participants From August 17, 2020, through November 25, 2020, we enrolled participants at 16 sites in South Africa. The trial was designed to provide a preliminary evaluation of treatment safety and efficacy during ongoing cialis transmission of erectile dysfunction. Participants were healthy adults between the ages of 18 and 84 years without human immunodeficiency cialis (HIV) or a subgroup of adults between the ages of 18 and 64 years with HIV whose condition was medically stable. Baseline IgG antibodies against the spike protein (anti-spike IgG antibodies) were measured at study entry to help determine baseline erectile dysfunction serostatus for the analysis of treatment efficacy. As a safety measure, enrollment was staggered into stage 1 (defined by the first third of targeted enrollment) and stage 2 (the remainder of enrollment) for both HIV-negative and HIV-positive participants.

Progression from stage 1 to stage 2 in each group required a favorable review of safety data through day 7 from the previous stage against prespecified rules that would trigger a pause in treatment administration. (Details regarding the participants in each stage are provided in Table S1 in the Supplementary Appendix, available with the full text of this article at NEJM.org.) Key exclusion criteria were pregnancy, long-term receipt of immunosuppressive therapy, autoimmune or immunodeficiency disease except for medically stable HIV , a history of confirmed or suspected erectile dysfunction treatment, and erectile dysfunction as confirmed on a nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) performed as part of screening within 5 days before anticipated initial administration of the treatment or placebo. All the participants provided written informed consent before enrollment. Additional details regarding the trial design, conduct, oversight, and analyses are provided in the Supplementary Appendix and the protocol (which includes the statistical analysis plan), available at NEJM.org. Oversight The NVX-CoV2373 treatment was developed by Novavax, which sponsored the trial and was responsible for the overall design (with input from the lead investigator), site selection, monitoring, and analysis.

Trial investigators were responsible for data collection. The protocol was approved by the South African Health Products Regulatory Authority and by the institutional review board at each trial center. Oversight of safety, which included monitoring for specific vaccination-pause rules, was performed by an independent safety monitoring committee. The first author wrote the first draft of the manuscript with assistance from a medical writer who is an author and an employee of Novavax. All the authors made the decision to submit the manuscript for publication and vouch for the accuracy and completeness of the data and for the fidelity of the trial to the protocol.

Trial Procedures Participants were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive two intramuscular injections, 21 days apart, of either NVX-CoV2373 (5 μg of recombinant spike protein with 50 μg of Matrix-M1 adjuvant) or saline placebo (injection volume, 0.5 ml), administered by staff members who were aware of trial-group assignments but were not otherwise involved with other trial procedures or data collection. All other staff members and trial participants remained unaware of trial-group assignments. Participants were scheduled for in-person follow-up visits on days 7, 21, and 35 and at 3 months and 6 months to collect vital signs, review any adverse events, discuss changes in concomitant medications, and obtain blood samples for immunogenicity analyses. A follow-up telephone visit was scheduled for 12 months after vaccination. Safety Assessments The primary safety end points were the occurrence of all unsolicited adverse events, including those that were medically attended, serious, or of special interest, through day 35 (Tables S2 and S3) and solicited local and systemic adverse events that were evaluated by means of a reactogenicity diary for 7 days after each vaccination (Tables S4 and S5).

Safety follow-up was ongoing through month 12. Efficacy Assessments The primary efficacy end point was confirmed symptomatic erectile dysfunction treatment that was categorized as mild, moderate, or severe (hereafter called symptomatic erectile dysfunction treatment) and that occurred within 7 days after receipt of the second injection (i.e., after day 28) (Table S6). Starting on day 8 and continuing through 12 months, we performed active surveillance (telephone calls every 2 weeks from trial sites to participants) and passive surveillance (telephone contact at any time from participants to trial sites) for symptoms of suspected erectile dysfunction treatment (Table S7 and Fig. S1). A new onset of suspected symptoms of erectile dysfunction treatment triggered initial in-person and follow-up surveillance visits to perform clinical assessments (vital signs, including pulse oximetry, and a lung examination) and for collection of nasal swabs (Fig.

S2). In addition, suspected erectile dysfunction treatment symptoms were also assessed and nasal swabs collected at all scheduled trial visits. Nasal-swab samples were tested for the presence of erectile dysfunction by NAAT with the use of the BD MAX system (Becton Dickinson). We used the InFLUenza Patient-Reported Outcome (FLU-PRO) questionnaire to comprehensively assess symptoms for the first 10 days of a suspected episode of erectile dysfunction treatment. Whole-Genome Sequencing In a blinded fashion, we performed post hoc whole-genome sequencing of nasal samples obtained from all the participants who had symptomatic erectile dysfunction treatment.

Details regarding the whole-genome sequencing methods and phylogenetic analysis are provided in Fig. S3. Statistical Analysis The safety analysis population included all the participants who had received at least one injection of NVX-CoV2373 or placebo. Regardless of group assignment, participants were evaluated according to the intervention they had actually received. Safety analyses were presented as numbers and percentages of participants who had solicited local and systemic adverse events through day 7 after each vaccination and who had unsolicited adverse events through day 35.

We performed a per-protocol efficacy analysis in the population of participants who had been seronegative for erectile dysfunction at baseline and who had received both injections of NVX-CoV2373 or placebo as assigned, had no evidence of erectile dysfunction (by NAAT or anti-spike IgG analysis) within 7 days after the second injection (i.e., before day 28), and had no major protocol deviations affecting the primary efficacy outcome. A second per-protocol efficacy analysis population was defined in a similar fashion except that participants who were seropositive for erectile dysfunction at baseline could be included. treatment efficacy (calculated as a percentage) was defined as (1–RR)×100, where RR is the relative risk of erectile dysfunction treatment illness in the treatment group as compared with the placebo group. The official, event-driven efficacy analysis targeted a minimum number of 23 end points (range, 23 to 50) to provide approximately 90% power to detect treatment efficacy of 80% on the basis of an incidence of symptomatic erectile dysfunction treatment of 2 to 6% in the placebo group. This analysis was performed at an overall one-sided type I error rate of 0.025 for the single primary efficacy end point.

The relative risk and its confidence interval were estimated with the use of Poisson regression with robust error variance. Hypothesis testing of the primary efficacy end point was performed against the null hypothesis of treatment efficacy of 0%. The success criterion required rejection of the null hypothesis to show a statistically significant treatment efficacy..

Average price of cialis daily

The erectile dysfunction treatment crisis has shined a light on the existing discrepancies in the healthcare system, with patients of color more likely to test positive for and suffer more severe health average price of cialis daily consequences from the novel erectile dysfunction. In addition, said panelists at Equal Access to Care for All Communities, a recent HIMSS Global Health Equity Week webinar, the bias faced by people in vulnerable communities makes it harder to average price of cialis daily fight the disease."The stress of being discriminated against your entire life, working and fighting and struggling to get access to income, to get access to education, to get access to care … those things mount up to potentially, maybe thwart our ability for our immune system to fight something like erectile dysfunction treatment," said Carladenise Edwards, senior vice president and chief strategy officer at the Henry Ford Health System.

"That cortisol release that individuals have over their lifetime is going to change the ways in which they can respond," agreed Sam Shah, founder and director of the Faculty of Future Health at Ulster University in Northern Ireland."Structural institutionalized problems we have ... Go beyond the things we average price of cialis daily can see," Shah continued. They're "ingrained and entrenched in society."So, in public health emergencies like the erectile dysfunction treatment cialis, said average price of cialis daily Dr. Dominic Mack, director of the National erectile dysfunction treatment Resiliency Network, "We see the pile-up of disparities come to bear."The healthcare system in the United States often focuses on individual health rather than population health or social health, said the experts.

As a result, it becomes difficult to implement long-term systems that will benefit large groups of people, average price of cialis daily such as those for chronic disease prevention among underserved communities. Mack noted, for example, that erectile dysfunction treatment testing lines are extremely long in certain parts of cities, suggesting that those with the most need have the fewest resources.Edwards cited the scholarship of economists Anne Case and Angus Deaton. "The design is intentional to continue the proliferation of capitalism and the disparities [between] the haves and the have-nots," said Edwards.So given those deep, average price of cialis daily entrenched disparities, how can healthcare IT play a role in addressing them?. Interoperability and data integration can be a useful tool for getting a sense of other factors in patients' lives that could be average price of cialis daily affecting their health, said the panelists – but they're not enough on their own."Data is not a patient," said Mack.

"When you look at a patient ... You cannot just control one aspect and one determinant and think it's going to solve the whole average price of cialis daily problem. It's a systematic approach."In fact, said Edwards, "We have all the data and information we need." She pointed out that we know, for average price of cialis daily instance, that Black men have the lowest life expectancy regardless of income level. Though she said we should still collect data, she asked, "How much more information do we need for institutions, for systems to decide to do something about it?.

" Shah average price of cialis daily argued that much of the available data isn't usable anyway – that it's chaotic, "jumbled-up," and not reflective of lived realities. "Just making the data more transparent" and using it to better plan patients' treatment, he said, could be a good starting place.However, technology can also be used in a harmful context, panelists said. Moderator Dr average price of cialis daily. Walter Suarez, executive director of health IT strategy and policy at Kaiser Permanente, noted that artificial intelligence and machine learning can reproduce the bias of their creators, or not take into account factors that affect some communities differently than others.There's also the risk, said Edwards, of "exacerbating discrimination in other areas if one's privacy is violated." In the United States, she continued, many fear "how our health data specifically is being used.""The system has to incentivize the development of the technology specifically for those populations" that have historically been overlooked, said Mack.In anticipation of another cialis or natural disaster, he said, "We need specific disaster planning for those communities that are disproportionately impacted."Still, said Edwards, "I do feel quite optimistic" about using IT to bridge the gap for those who don't have access to care.

"We have been able to leverage technology to get resources to them," she said average price of cialis daily. However, technology "hasn't eliminated the disparities between those who have and those who do average price of cialis daily not have. The gap seems to continue to widen."One step systems can take, she said, is "ensuring that we all commit to caring for people as individuals .... Everyone gets the same level of care and treatment regardless of their race, their gender, their economic status.""If we live with those values and profess those values that'll be a little dent average price of cialis daily in some of the things we're seeing," she said.

Meanwhile, London’s Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS FT (GOSH) recently became the first UK hospital to achieve Stage 7 on the HIMSS O-EMRAM, which measures the adoption and maturity of a health facility’s outpatient EMR capabilities.

This recognition reflects how our clinicians and clinical teams across our hospitals are using advanced technologies, data and analytics, as part of their everyday clinical practice to support the care that they give to our patients.”Dr Ewen Cameron, executive director of improvement and transformation at CUH said. €œAchieving Stage 7 means that we have developed and fully adopted the use of technology and data as part-and-parcel of everyday clinical practice, but this is really only the beginning for us.“We are dedicated to continuous improvement, and for that reason we are building upon what we now have.

The erectile dysfunction treatment site crisis has shined a light on the existing discrepancies in the healthcare system, with patients of color more likely to test positive for how do i get cialis and suffer more severe health consequences from the novel erectile dysfunction. In addition, said panelists at Equal Access to Care for All Communities, a recent how do i get cialis HIMSS Global Health Equity Week webinar, the bias faced by people in vulnerable communities makes it harder to fight the disease."The stress of being discriminated against your entire life, working and fighting and struggling to get access to income, to get access to education, to get access to care … those things mount up to potentially, maybe thwart our ability for our immune system to fight something like erectile dysfunction treatment," said Carladenise Edwards, senior vice president and chief strategy officer at the Henry Ford Health System. HIMSS20 Digital Learn on-demand, earn credit, find products and solutions. Get Started how do i get cialis >>. "That cortisol release that individuals have over their lifetime is going to change the ways in which they can respond," agreed Sam Shah, founder and director of the Faculty of Future Health at Ulster University in Northern Ireland."Structural institutionalized problems we have ...

Go beyond the how do i get cialis things we can see," Shah continued. They're "ingrained and entrenched in society."So, in public health emergencies how do i get cialis like the erectile dysfunction treatment cialis, said Dr. Dominic Mack, director of the National erectile dysfunction treatment Resiliency Network, "We see the pile-up of disparities come to bear."The healthcare system in the United States often focuses on individual health rather than population health or social health, said the experts. As a result, it becomes difficult to implement long-term systems that will benefit large groups of people, such as those for chronic disease prevention among underserved how do i get cialis communities. Mack noted, for example, that erectile dysfunction treatment testing lines are extremely long in certain parts of cities, suggesting that those with the most need have the fewest resources.Edwards cited the scholarship of economists Anne Case and Angus Deaton.

"The design is intentional to continue the proliferation of capitalism and the disparities [between] the haves and the have-nots," said Edwards.So given those deep, how do i get cialis entrenched disparities, how can healthcare IT play a role in addressing them?. Interoperability and data integration can be a useful tool for getting a sense of other factors in patients' lives that could be affecting their health, said the how do i get cialis panelists – but they're not enough on their own."Data is not a patient," said Mack. "When you look at a patient ... You cannot just control one aspect and one determinant and think it's going to solve the whole problem how do i get cialis. It's a systematic approach."In fact, how do i get cialis said Edwards, "We have all the data and information we need." She pointed out that we know, for instance, that Black men have the lowest life expectancy regardless of income level.

Though she said we should still collect data, she asked, "How much more information do we need for institutions, for systems to decide to do something about it?. " Shah argued that much of the available data isn't usable anyway – how do i get cialis that it's chaotic, "jumbled-up," and not reflective of lived realities. "Just making the data more transparent" and using it to better plan patients' treatment, he said, could be a good starting place.However, technology can also be used in a harmful context, panelists said. Moderator Dr how do i get cialis. Walter Suarez, executive director of health IT strategy and policy at Kaiser Permanente, noted that artificial intelligence and machine learning can reproduce the bias of their creators, or not take into account factors that affect some communities differently than others.There's also the risk, said Edwards, of "exacerbating discrimination in other areas if one's privacy is violated." In the United States, she continued, many fear "how our health data specifically is being used.""The system has to incentivize the development of the technology specifically for those populations" that have historically been overlooked, said Mack.In anticipation of another cialis or natural disaster, he said, "We need specific disaster planning for those communities that are disproportionately impacted."Still, said Edwards, "I do feel quite optimistic" about using IT to bridge the gap for those who don't have access to care.

"We have been able to leverage technology to how do i get cialis get resources to them," she said. However, technology "hasn't eliminated the disparities how do i get cialis between those who have and those who do not have. The gap seems to continue to widen."One step systems can take, she said, is "ensuring that we all commit to caring for people as individuals .... Everyone gets the same level of care and how do i get cialis treatment regardless of their race, their gender, their economic status.""If we live with those values and profess those values that'll be a little dent in some of the things we're seeing," she said.
