Measuring Power and Presence: Bureaucratic Representation in the American States
This article introduces a new measure of bureaucratic representation that provides a more complete view of a demographic group‘s potential to be effectively represented by its members in a bureaucracy. It does so by combining information about a group’s overall presence in the bureaucracy (penetration) with information that reflects its distribution over the hierarchy (stratification). Specifically, we focus on how groups are distributed in the r…
Can Home Care Services Achieve Cost Savings in Long-Term Care for Older People
Our findings suggest that the long-sought goal of overall cost-neutrality or even cost-savings through reducing nursing home use sufficiently to more than offset home care costs is technically feasible, but requires tighter targeting of services and a more medically oriented service mix than major home care demonstrations have implemented to date
Reducing Nursing Home use through Community Long-Term Care: An Optimization Analysis
Can community services be made more effective in reducing nursing home use through better management of their mix and allocation? To test this idea, we used data from the National Long-Term Care Channeling Demonstration to estimate logistic regression models relating the use of various types of community services to nursing home use. We then used these estimates to form an objective function for a mathematical optimization procedure which minimiz…
Inconsistency in level of care assignment decisions in skilled nursing facilities
In Arizona, a non-Medicaid state, we investigated the extent to which unregulated level of care assignments in Skilled Nursing Facilities consistently reflect level and nature of patient impairment. Using Multiple Discriminant Analysis (MDA) to develop optimal prediction functions, approximately 70 per cent of patients could be correctly classified. Factors identified by MDA as discriminating among patients at different levels of care are an Acti…
