Posthospitalization Home Health Care Use and Changes in Functional Status in a Medicare Population
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this work was to estimate the effect of Medicare beneficiaries' use of home health care (HHC) for 6 months after hospital discharge on the change in functional status over a 1-year period beginning before hospitalization. DATA SOURCES AND STUDY SETTING: Data came from the Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey, which is a nationally representative sample of Medicare beneficiaries, in-person interview data, and Medicare cl…
Adapting an effective primary care provider STD/HIV prevention training programme
Sexually acquired human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection continues to be the major source of HIV infection in the USA. Preventing sexual transmission of HIV can be accomplished through patient behaviour change. Such behaviour change can also decrease risk of other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and unwanted pregnancies, both far more common problems than HIV infection. Primary care physicians and other providers can increase patients'…
Self-reports of HIV risk factors by patients at a sexually transmitted disease clinic
OBJECTIVES. The purpose of this study was to determine how the method of assessment affects patient report of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) risks. METHODS. Patients at a sexually transmitted disease clinic randomly received either a written self-administered questionnaire or an audio self-administered questionnaire delivered by cassette player and headset. These questionnaires were followed by face-to-face interviews. RESULTS. Audio question…
Frequency and thoroughness of STD/HIV risk assessment by physicians in a high-risk metropolitan area
The US Preventive Services Task Force recommends that all primary care physicians assess the sexually transmitted disease/human immunodeficiency virus (STD/HIV) risk of all adolescent and adult patients. To determine whether factors amenable to change through continuing medical education are associated with frequent and thorough STD/HIV risk assessment, a telephone survey of primary care physicians in the Washington, DC metropolitan area was cond…
Delegation Potential of Primary Care Visits by Physician Assistants, Medex and Primex
In order to determine the appropriate level of any support for primary care new health practitioners (NHP) programs, an estimate needs to be made of the demand for these programs; the degree to which primary care NHPs can substitute for physicians' services will have an impact on this demand. Using community-wide data on the nature and volume of care provided by physicians in their ambulatory practices, the authors estimated the proportion of car…
Evaluation of a Drug Therapy Protocol in an HMO
Effective means of affecting physician prescribing behavior must be developed if the quality of health care is to be improved. A drug therapy protocol for otitis media, containing a rationale for drugs, doses and days of therapy by patient age, was developed by a physician panel at one site (EI) of an HMO, and implemented at both EI and a second site (EII); a third site was a control. A comparison of prescribing during two phases, before and afte…
Who??s Using Nonprescribed Medicines
A household survey investigated the nonprescribed medicine use of 3,481 persons in the Baltimore SMSA in 1968-69. Of respondents, 30 per cent used a nonprescribed morbidity-related medicine in two days. Rates of use are higher for adults, females and whites in all economic classes, and do not increase with increasing severity of morbidity in any economic class. A hypothesis that nonprescribed substitute for prescribed medicines is supported: ill …
Medicaid, Morbidity, and Physician Use
Medical programs which provide services for low-income persons who have high medical needs have been criticized for high costs and have raised questions about overuse of physician services. A Baltimore SMSA household interview of use of health services permitted comparison of use of physician and preventive services controlled for morbidity by Medicaid recipients and two other income groups. Medicaid recipients were sickest and had higher physici…

Use of Health Services by Baltimore Medicaid Recipients
Medicaid legislation intended to remove financial barriers to health care for the poor. A household interview survey of the Metropolitan Baltimore area in 1968-69 shows that persons on Medicaid are the highest users of health services. More Medicaid recipients in Baltimore visited a physician in two weeks and one year; more were admitted one or more times to a hospital. The total number of days in a hospital per 100 persons was considerably great…
Economic Class and Use of Physician Services
Two assertions about the effects of economic class on use of physician services are tested. It was expected that the net price of services would be more highly related to use among the poor than among high income persons, and that noneconomic predisposing factors would be more highly related to preventive use than to all types of use combined. These assertions were tested using data from a household survey of the Baltimore Standard Metropolitan S…
