  • Can Continuity of Care Reduce Hospitalization Among Community-dwelling Older Adult Veterans Living With Dementia

    Lianlian Lei, Shubing Cai et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2020References: 38

    BACKGROUND: Hospitalization is a difficult experience, especially for patients with dementia. Understanding whether better continuity of care (COC) reduces hospitalizations can indicate interventions that might help curb hospitalizations. OBJECTIVE: To estimate the causal impact of COC on hospitalizations and different reasons for hospitalization among community-dwelling older veterans with dementia. RESEARCH DESIGN: Population-based observationa…

  • Least Squared Simulated Errors: An Estimator for Structural Models With Unspecified Regression Functions

    Open AccessPeter J Veazie, Shubing CaiARTICLESAGE Open2015

    Estimation by minimizing the sum of squared residuals is a common method for parameters of regression functions; however, regression functions are not always known or of interest. Maximizing the likelihood function is an alternative if a distribution can be properly specified. However, cases can arise in which a regression function is not known, no additional moment conditions are indicated, and we have a distribution for the random quantities, b…

  • The Impact of Medicaid Payer Status on Hospitalizations in Nursing Homes

    Shubing Cai, Suzanne C Miller et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2015References: 25

    OBJECTIVES: To examine the association between payer status (Medicaid vs. private-pay) and the risk of hospitalizations among long-term stay nursing home (NH) residents who reside in the same facility. DATA AND STUDY POPULATION: The 2007-2010 National Medicare Claims and the Minimum Data Set were linked. We identified newly admitted NH residents who became long-stayers and then followed them for 180 days. ANALYSES: Three dichotomous outcomes-all-…

  • Obesity and Pressure Ulcers Among Nursing Home Residents

    Shubing Cai, Momotazur Rahman et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2013References: 29

    OBJECTIVES: To examine the prevalence of obesity and its relationship with pressure ulcers among nursing home (NH) populations, and whether such relationship varies with certified nursing assistant (CNA) level in NHs. DATA AND STUDY POPULATION: The 1999-2009 nationwide Minimum Data Sets were linked with Online Survey of Certification and Reporting records. We identified newly admitted NH residents who became long-stayers and followed them up to 1…

  • Racial Disparities in In-hospital Death and Hospice Use Among Nursing Home Residents at the End of Life

    Nan Tracy Zheng, Dana B Mukamel et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2011References: 38

    BACKGROUND: Significant racial disparities have been reported regarding nursing home residents' use of hospital and hospice care at the end of life (EOL). OBJECTIVE: To examine whether the observed racial disparities in EOL care are due to within-facility or across-facility variations. RESEARCH DESIGN AND SUBJECTS: Cross-sectional study of 49,048 long-term care residents (9.23% black and 90.77% white) in 555 New York State nursing homes who died …

  • Pressure Ulcer Prevalence Among Black and White Nursing Home Residents in New York State: Evidence of Racial Disparity

    Shubing Cai, Dana B Mukamel et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2010References: 30

    OBJECTIVE: The occurrence of pressure ulcers (PUs) in nursing homes is a marker for poor quality of care. We examine whether differences in PU prevalence between black and white residents are due to within- or across-facility disparities. METHODS: Minimum Data Sets (2006-2007) are linked with the Online Survey Certification and Reporting database. Long-term care residents with high risk for PUs are identified. The dependent variable is dichotomou…

  • Nursing Home Environment and Organizational Performance: Association With Deficiency Citations

    Helena Temkin‐greener, Helena Temkin-Greener et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2010References: 29

    BACKGROUND: Work environment attributes--job design, teamwork, and work effectiveness--are thought to influence nursing home (NH) quality of care. However, few studies tested these relationships empirically. OBJECTIVE: We investigated the relationship between these work environment attributes and quality of care measured by facility-level regulatory deficiencies. METHODS: Data on work environment were derived from survey responses obtained (in 20…
