The Oregon Health Study provided an opportunity to ex- amine those possibilities. Top researchers from around the country began comparing the lives and health care costs of Or- egon Health Plan lottery win- ners such as Monroy with those who remained uninsured. An initial report was released a year ago, and the analysis con- tinues. Bill Wright, a Providence Health & Services researcher participating in the study, says two primary lessons so far are clear. “A lot of folks have said Med- icaid doesn’t do anything, and we found that it does,” Wright says. “And a lot of folks say you insure people it’s going to imme- diately pay for itself, and we found that it costs, at least ini- tially.” The newly insured low-in- come lottery winners used more health care than their still-unin- sured counterparts — about 25 percent or $777 per year more. They received much more pre- ventative care, including mam- mograms and cholesterol screenings. They entered hospi- tals 30 percent more frequently.

By STEPHEN ALEXANDER The Tribune

When the Portland Tim- bers moved to Major League Soccer, Gavin Wilkinson said goodbye to coaching. After being at the helm of the United Soccer Leagues Timbers for four years and compiling a 50-29-39 record, he was ready to start the next chapter in his life as the Timbers’ technical direc- tor and general manager. Wilkinson missed coaching, Interim Portland but he was happy with his new Timbers coach role.

Losers n New York Were the Knicks close to a ti- tle, their moves would make more sense. They’re not. Gray- beards Jason Kidd and Marcus Camby are both pushing 40. J.R. Smith is a member of the NBA Knucklehead Hall of Fame, and you know all about Raymond Fel- ton. With all the moves, the Knicks weren’t able to match the offer sheet Houston laid on Jeremy Lin because of luxury-tax impli- cations. Some sorry decision- making by the Knicks’ front of- fice. n L.A. Clippers You can’t argue with the move to secure Blake Griffin, no mat- ter what the cost. But the other free-agent signings — especially Jamal Crawford and Lamar Odom — make less sense. And at 36, after Achilles’ tendon sur- gery, how much does Chauncey Billups have left? The Clippers are still probably playoff-bound, but there are 377312.071912 some gambles here that may not pay.
