Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, San Francisco, 1996.

During the current health care environment of cost-cutting and restructuring, case management is viewed as a means of providing comprehensive, coordinated care while reducing costs. Studies of case management programs in the community have yielded disappointing results with increased costs and inconclusive readmission rates to hospitals and nursing homes. This study looks at a specific Medicare service, "management and evaluation of the care plan" (MAE) as a model of case management for the elderly in their homes. Management and evaluation is examined through a political economy framework to assess how programs are influenced by policy, economy and society.

520 $a During the current health care environment of cost-cutting and restructuring, case management is viewed as a means of providing comprehensive, coordinated care while reducing costs. Studies of case management programs in the community have yielded disappointing results with increased costs and inconclusive readmission rates to hospitals and nursing homes. This study looks at a specific Medicare service, "management and evaluation of the care plan" (MAE) as a model of case management for the elderly in their homes. Management and evaluation is examined through a political economy framework to assess how programs are influenced by policy, economy and society.
520 $a For the MAE group, nurses made home visits to persons identified as at risk for complications to assure they received proper care and that the plan of care was followed. Three groups of Medicare home health consumers were identified: MAE (N = 176), non-MAE (N = 187) and newly discharged (N = 93). A retrospective analysis of billing data was performed.
520 $a Subjects tended to be unmarried older women with three functional limitations and four medical diagnoses. Over one year all subjects had a mean of 43 home care visits and one hospital admission (mean stay 16 days). Patients receiving case management services were generally older, had more functional limitations and environmental barriers, were less independent in their activities of daily living (ADLs), and had worse prognoses than the other groups. Yet, compared to the non-MAE group, MAE recipients had significantly less health care utilization.
520 $a A predictive model of group membership was created. Significant contributors included use of home care, ADL and functional measures, site of referral and prognosis. With hospital length of stay as the dependent variable, significant contributions were demographic, functional and prognosis indicators and for home health utilization assistive devices, group membership, prognoses, hospital days, living alone, and number of diagnoses were predictive.
520 $a The results concur with the predictors of health care utilization in the literature. Although the project was conducted at one health care organization, overall the sample was similar to the national Medicare population. Implications for nursing practice, research and education are discussed.
