Epa Clean Air Requirements and Employee Commuting in Baltimore
The Federal Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 require that states with severely or extremely polluted urban areas adopt regulations to reduce the number of work-related vehicle trips and miles commuted to the work site by employees. This legislation departed from previous policy by focusing on behavioral rather than technological aspects of air pollution control. In addition, the so-called employee commute option shifts regulations from drivers to…
Measuring Transportation Characteristics of the Disabled
The transportation authority serving Louisville and Jefferson County, Kentucky purchased a set of lift-equipped buses to be placed in service in January 1988 and needed to know on which routes to place them. Soon afterward, they would need to make a decision whether to purchase additional lift-equipped buses. More generally, they wanted to know how best to plan for the needs of people with disabilities. A single general population survey that cou…
Hospice in transition
The ratio of hospice patients to 100 Kentuckians dying of cancer was 8 in 1982 and 12 in 1985. The primary increase occurred in the number of patients served by three hospices which became Medicare-certified during that time period. During this period, the average age of hospice patients increased, and patients became more likely to die at home. Hospices in some counties may have served about 40 per cent of terminally ill cancer patients
Use of Health Care Before and During Citicare
The Citicare program was implemented in Jefferson County, Kentucky, between July 1982 and June 1983. Approximately 40,000 AFDC-related Medicaid recipients were enrolled. Granted federal waivers, the program established a primary care network with capitation payment and physician sharing of savings. Interviews were conducted with 300 recipients just prior to the program and with 348 recipients 1 year later. No changes occurred in the rate of hospi…

Children's health in families with cigarette smokers
Recent studies have indicated higher rates of certain respiratory conditions among children who live in households with adults who smoke cigarettes. This paper analyzes data from the 1970 National Health Interview Survey. Children in families with no smokers had an average of 1.1 fewer restricted-activity days and 0.8 fewer bed-disability days per year than did children in families with two smokers. Children in families with one smoker were in be…
Who Adopts
Adoption has increased in the United States, at least until 1971. As adoptions have increased, they have become less concentrated among women unable to bear children, although these women are still more likely to adopt than are fertile women. There is broad normative support for adoption and about 4 percent of American women have adopted a child by the time they are 45 years old. Women who adopt are
