Agreement Between Clinical and Administrative Health Databases for Medication Use in Saskatchewan's Long-Term Care Residents
Introduction The Resident Assessment Instrument Minimum Data Set (RAI-MDS) is a clinical tool intended to provide comparable and consistent information about the functional status and care needs of residents of long-term facilities (LTCFs). The RAI-MDS has been used in numerous studies about quality of care, including studies about the use of medications associated with potentially adverse health outcomes. However, the accuracy of many of the RAI…

Identifying Potentially Avoidable Hospital Admissions From Canadian Long-Term Care Facilities
BACKGROUND: The provision of preventive services and continuity of care are important aspects of long-term care (LTC). A proposed quality indicator of such care is the rate of hospitalizations due to ambulatory care sensitive conditions (ACSCs). As the ACSC approach to identifying potentially avoidable hospitalizations (PAH) was developed for younger community-dwelling adults in the United States, we sought to examine its applicability as a quali…
Validating Diagnostic Information on the Minimum Data Set in Ontario Hospital-Based Long-Term Care
BACKGROUND: Over 20 countries currently use the Minimum Data Set Resident Assessment Instrument (MDS) in long-term care settings for care planning, policy, and research purposes. A full assessment of the quality of the diagnostic information recorded on the MDS is lacking. OBJECTIVE: The primary goal of this study was to examine the quality of diagnostic coding on the MDS. STUDY SAMPLE: Subjects for this study were admitted to Ontario Complex Con…

Such knowledge is necessary to guide facility management and policy action. OBJECTIVE: We sought to determine the net effect of quality on cost in LTC hospital settings. STUDY SAMPLE: A 4-year panel dataset from April 1997 through March 2002 comprising observatio…
