Treatment Differences Between Blacks and Whites with Colorectal Cancer
OBJECTIVES: The authors examine interracial variations in treatment for over 20,000 patients hospitalized with colorectal cancer in a national sample of hospitals. METHODS: To reduce clinical heterogeneity that could explain differences in treatment, hospitalizations were classified into relatively homogeneous subgroups based on diagnoses indicating primary colorectal tumor, oncologic sequelae, and metastasis. Procedures were classified into clin…
A Severity Classification System for Aids Hospitalizations
The authors describe a new model for classifying hospitalized patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) according to their severity of illness. In the first phase of the project, a clinical model indicating the relative severity of AIDS complications was formulated, based on the clinical literature and expert opinion. In the second phase, the model was tested empirically using data on in-patient mortality of over 6,000 adult AIDS ho…
Duration and Costs of Aids Hospitalizations in New York: Variations by Patient Severity of Illness and Hospital Type
This study uses the Severity Classification for AIDS Hospitalizations to examine and contrast the duration and costs of hospitalizations among 6,142 AIDS discharges from New York hospitals during 1985. Multivariate regression analyses of resource-use differences suggest that more severely ill AIDS patients have considerably longer stays and higher total charges, regardless of hospital type. Severity of illness alone accounts for most of the expla…
