Resource use in home care agencies
Abstract:
Increasing use of home care services in the past decade has led to concern about the nature and number of services provided to clients. Because third party payers have used case mix measures to develop reimbursement systems for acute and long-term care facilities, it seems likely that similar measures will be developed for home care. Three types of home care agencies were studied to test the usefulness of routinely gathered clinical and financial data for predicting resources provided. The findings suggest that current data sources may be inadequate for predicting the actual delivery of services.
