Impact of growing numbers of the very old on Medicaid expenditures for nursing homes
We utilized Medicaid data from five states which account for 39 per cent of Medicaid expenditures to study the impact of the near-trebling of persons age 85 and older (the very old) projected to occur by the year 2012 upon Medicaid nursing home expenditures. We found a one-year prevalence of Medicaid-covered nursing home residence of 20 per 100 among the very old. If this rate continues, with no changes in current levels of Medicaid nursing home …
Reducing antipsychotic drug prescribing for nursing home patients
We conducted a statewide, controlled trial of the efficacy of an educational visit in reducing antipsychotic drug prescribing for nursing home patients. Frequent antipsychotic drug prescribers were visited by a trained physician counselor who stressed known drug risks for elderly patients and suggested techniques for reducing antipsychotic drug use. Although well-received, the visit did not reduce antipsychotic drug prescribing. This negative fin…
Interstate Variation in Elderly Medicaid Nursing Home Populations
Nursing home care in the United States is financed primarily through the federal-state Medicaid program. Because Medicaid nursing home programs are administered within the individual states, there may be interstate differences in the characteristics of Medicaid nursing home residents and their utilization of medical care. We used Medicaid claims and enrollment data for calendar 1981 from three large states--Michigan, California, and New York--to …
Differences Between Female and Male Children in the Receipt of Prescribed Psychotropic and Controlled-Analgesic Drugs
This study describes the differences between male and female children in the receipt of prescriptions for psychotropic and controlled-analgesic drugs in office practice. The study encompassed 341,422 children of ages 0 through 17 years enrolled in the Tennessee Medicaid program during the 5 years 1977-1981. These children made 1,342,573 office visits and received 1,636,127 prescriptions during the study. There were 18,023 (5.3%) children who rece…

A study of antipsychotic drug use in nursing homes
We reviewed 384,326 prescriptions for 5,902 Medicaid patients residing continuously for one year in 173 Tennessee nursing homes. Of these patients, 43 per cent received antipsychotic drugs; 9 per cent were chronic recipients (received at least 365 daily doses per year). Of the 1,580 physicians who cared for these patients, 42 per cent prescribed antipsychotic medication. Physicians with large nursing home practices (10 or more patients) prescribe…
Maternal Mortality in Michigan
An analysis was performed of direct maternal mortality over 22 years (1950 through 1971) in the state of Michigan. The overall direct maternal mortality rate fell from 5.0/10,000 live births in 1950 to 1.5 in 1971. The rate among nonwhites was more than four times greater than among whites and the difference in relative risk did not narrow over the 22 years. Mortality rates increased with increasing maternal age but not with increasing parity. Nu…

Medicaid Records as a Valid Data Source; The Tennessee Experience
Health care researchers rarely employ Medicaid claim files as a data base, in part because they are designed to serve fiscal and administrative ends. Indeed, some investigators have emphasized the deficiencies in such records. In contrast, we have found Tennessee Medicaid data to be suitable for research. A statewide automated data processing system reduces the occurrence of many of the errors noted by others. Further, analysis of the July 1974 m…
