Socioeconomic Influence on Small Area Hospital Utilization
Health care policy makers, concerned with the rising cost of health care, have focused on the observed variation in the use of hospitals as a potential area in which to lower health care costs, i.e., if hospital utilization can be decreased, health care costs may also decline. However, it is crucial that the reasons for the observed variation in the current practice be understood or attempts to reduce costs may lead to policies that harm groups o…
Small-Area Variation in Hospital Discharge Rates
Although numerous studies have been made of the determinants of small-area variation in hospital discharge rates, there is still disagreement about the role of socioeconomic factors. The lack of consensus stems, in part, from the difficulty in comparing results across studies that use different units and methods of analysis. Many of the studies using well-defined hospital service areas did not have the data needed to conduct a controlled analysis…
Does race affect hospital use
Based on 1980 hospital discharges in areas in the State of Michigan, with substantial Black populations, Blacks use approximately 50 per cent more hospital care than Whites, but about half this difference is associated with use in specific communities which affects both White and Black use. Black use is not associated with community size, per cent of Blacks, or available beds and doctors. After controlling for mortality and socioeconomic status, …
Classification of Hospital Patients as ???Surgical??? Implications of the Shift to ICD-9-CM
Using a nearly complete set of hospital discharge abstracts for Michigan in 1980, the authors offer evidence that the shifts in diagnostic and procedure coding (from HICDA-2 to ICD-9-CM) and associated class definitions may have affected both estimates of surgical/nonsurgical use rates and expected lengths of stay of operated versus nonoperated patients as defined using Commission on Professional and Hospital Activities length-of-stay texts
Health Care Management and Contemporary Perspective
Forecasting Bed Needs and Recommending Facilities Plans for Community Hospitals
A university-based hospital consulting group reviewed six studies of Michigan hospitals retrospectively in 1975. The studies represented all those done between 1967 and 1971 requiring forecasts of acute bed supply and service needs. The original studies developed forecasts using empirical studies of patient origin and rigorously prepared authoritative forecasts of county populations. The 1975 review compared forecasts of population, service popul…
