Are we ready for bundled payments for major bowel surgery?
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) recently announced a new voluntary episode payment model for major bowel surgery. The purpose of this study was to examine the financial impact of bundled payments for major bowel surgery.
methodsAn institutional database was retrospectively queried for all patients who underwent major bowel surgery between July 2016 and June 2018. Procedures were categorized using MS-DRG coding: MS-DRG 329 (with MCC, major complications and comorbidity), MS-DRG 330 (with CC, complications and comorbidity), and MS-DRG 331 (without CC/MCC).
resultsA total of 745 patients underwent 798 procedures, with mean age 62.1 years and BMI 29.2 kg/m
conclusionsPatients undergoing major bowel surgery are often a heterogeneous population with varied pre-existing comorbid conditions who require a high level of complex care and utilize greater hospital resources. Further study is needed to identify areas of cost containment without compromising the overall quality of care.
