===Medicare per-capita spending growth relative to inflation and per-capita GDP growth===
Per capita spending relative to inflation per-capita GDP growth was to be an important factor used by the PPACA-specified [[Independent Payment Advisory Board]] (IPAB), as a measure to determine whether it must recommend to Congress proposals to reduce Medicare costs. However, the IPAB never formed and was formally repealed by the Balanced Budget Act of 2018.
