Stretching Scarce Authorizing Legislation as Far as Possible: A Legislative History of the 340B Drug Pricing Program

The Milbank Quarterly, EarlyView.
Policy Points The original purpose of the 340B program was to exempt Public Health Service Act funded clinics and state and local public hospitals from the inflationary best‐price component of the recently enacted Medicaid drug rebate program. The secondary purpose was to reduce drug prices for these clinics and hospitals in order to preserve and ...

A Fault Sources-Based Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis for Next-Generation Seismic Ground Motion Parameters Zonation Map of China

International Journal of Disaster Risk Science
The probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) method used in existing seismic ground motion parameters zonation map of China (the traditional PSHA-CN method) is based on a two-dimensional area seismic source framework and does not account for the ...

Evaluating the U.S. Geological Survey's Earthquake Shaking Hazard Forecasts and Their Implications on Seismic Risk

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
We analyze the last six update cycles of the long‐term probabilistic earthquake shaking hazard forecast from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and discuss the changes in hazard estimates from the 1996 to the latest 2023 update of the National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) for the conterminous United States.

An investigation of PSHA sensitivity with focus on Finland

, 2023
We describe the SENSEI project conducted on the initiative of STUK, the Radiation and Nuclear safety Authority of Finland. The project aimed at exploring the sensitivity of probabilistic seismic hazard outputs to different choices of input parameters, based on the seismicity data available in Finland.

Nonstationary Spatial Correlation of Earthquake Ground Motions in California

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 3, August 2026.
Assessing seismic risk to spatially distributed infrastructure systems requires realistic representations of spatially correlated ground motions. Existing models for the spatial correlations of ground motions rely on strong second‐order stationarity assumptions, under which the correlation structure is assumed to be invariant across space, potentially ...

Preliminary earthquake focal mechanism forecasts for the Amatrice sequence (central Italy)

Annals of Geophysics, 2016
We place the Amatrice (central Italy) seismic sequence and the related epicentral area in a contest of Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis (PSHA). We apply a procedure to compute the probability to observe in the future a normal, reverse or strike-slip

Quantifying Model Selection Uncertainty in Structural Analysis: Methodology and Application

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 9, Page 1828-1844, 25 July 2026.
ABSTRACT With increasing focus on complex engineering systems under rare events, computational models are critical for predictions due to the scarcity or absence of data. However, selecting an appropriate model can be challenging. Using a single model without available test calibration could result in significant bias in performance predictions. A case
