Health Insurance Coverage of the Unemployed
Of 1,332 unemployed individuals in the Detroit area interviewed in late 1983, 51% did not have health insurance. Lack of insurance was directly related to length of unemployment. Of those unemployed 3 months or less, 31% had no insurance, as compared with 56% of those unemployed more than 3 years. For the most part, these were not the chronically uninsured: 78% of them were insured when they were employed. Three fourths of those without insurance…
Classification of Hospitals Based on Measured Output
Evaluation of hospital performance and improvement of resource allocation in hospital systems require a method for classifying hospitals on the basis of their output. Previous approaches to hospital classification relied largely on input characteristics. The authors propose and apply a procedure for classifying hospitals into groups where within-group hospitals are similar with respect to output. Direct measures of case-mix-adjusted discharges an…
Quality, Cost, and Health
This article presents an integrative model of the relations among health status, quality of care, and resource expenditure. It defines medical care quality in terms of outcomes, measured as the expected improvements in health status attributable to care. The consideration of how quality so defined is affected by the unconstrained, efficient use of resources for care leads to the specification of the absolutist definition of quality. Consideration…
Equity in the Distribution of Quality of Care
This article examines whether the quality of health care services in the United States is equitably distributed across all groups in the population, especially groups defined by age, race, sex, and income characteristics. The framework within which the question is answered draws distinctions among structural, process, and outcome inequities. The available evidence suggests that all three types of inequity are present, at least to some extent. How…
