This study introduces a new prospective budgeting model for home care, offering a flexible template for decision-making. It enhances program equity, efficiency, and effectiveness for home care services.

Area of Science:

  • Health Services Research
  • Health Economics

Background:

  • Home care services require robust budgeting models for efficient resource allocation.
  • Existing models may present logical and operational challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a plausible, coherent, and flexible prospective budgeting model for home care.
  • To define data requirements and statistical frameworks for model calibration.
  • To serve as a practical decision-making template for home care management.

Main Methods:

  • Application of standard risk-neutral expected value theory.
  • Utilization of cost-benefit analysis.
  • Employment of the conditional logistic probability model.

Main Results:

  • A simple, effective prospective budgeting model was developed.
  • The model provides analytic scaffolding for a decision support system.
  • Potential for improved program equity, efficiency, and effectiveness in home care.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed framework addresses limitations of the Weissert, Chernew, and Hirth Titration Budgeting Model.
  • It offers a pathway to meet the goals of titration models with improved resource allocation.
  • The model facilitates more efficient allocation of home care resources.
