Beskrivning

Originally published in 1981 by Abt Books, this book examines the determinants of nursing home operating costs in several geographic areas and at several points in time in order to provide an improved understanding of cost factors in nursing home care. Examination of cost reimbursement formulae now in use show that rate setting based on cost analyses is a desirable approach to addressing competing public goals. Concludes that public reimbursement based on cost information may appropriately differ from actual or predicted costs to encourage (or discourage) the supply of certain types of care.
