Case managers efficiently allocate community-based services for the elderly. This study suggests their targeted approach helps seniors remain in the community longer, supporting the use of case managers for elder care services.

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Health Services Research
  • Public Health Policy

Background:

  • Community-based services are crucial for elderly care.
  • Case management plays a vital role in coordinating these services.
  • Nursing home preadmission screening programs aim to optimize care placement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the allocative efficiency of case managers for community-based elderly care.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of case managers in allocating home and community-based services.
  • To assess the impact of case management on elderly clients remaining in the community.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of a one-year follow-up dataset for elderly clients.
  • Inclusion of data on client placement, health, functional status, and service utilization.

    • Main Results:

    • A positive correlation was found between the level of home and community-based services and the duration elderly clients remained in the community.
    • This relationship suggests efficient allocation of services by case managers.
    • Clients receiving Alternative Care Grants (ACG)-supported services demonstrated this trend.

    Conclusions:

    • Case managers appear to allocate home and community-based services efficiently.
    • The findings support the use of case managers to effectively target services for the elderly.
    • Case management is a valuable strategy for supporting community-based elder care.
