Agenda • Compare people who use nursing homes with people using home- and community-based services (HCBS) • Temporal trends • Selected sub-populations • Next steps
Notes • 1999-2005 data from MDCH data warehouse • MDS (NH) and MDS-HC (HC) • All people, not only Medicaid eligibles • 2005 data from Jan-June • Admission = all admissions in year • Prevalence = assessment closest to July 1st of that year
Number of NH Admissions is Growing – From Hospitals From Hospital HCBS NH
NH Admissions Increasingly Physically Dependent ADL Hierarchy NH HCBS
HC Admissions Increasingly Cognitively Dependent CPS Scale NH HCBS
RUG-III Categories at Admission NH HCBS
Identifying LTC Sub-populations • SMI (any of 4) • verbally abusive, physically abusive, socially inappropriate • hallucinations, delusions • bipolar disease, schizophrenia • symptoms of depression • Short stay • Admission from hospital (NH) • Medicare (NH) • LOS < 90 days (both NH and HCBS) • Long stay: >1 year • Age <45 years • Note: subpopulations overlap somewhat
Selected Sub-Population Notes • Used 2004 (last year with full data, as some pops had low prevalence) • Some differences in NH and HC definitions (long- and short-stay) • SMI not really SMI
ADL Special Pops NH HCBS
Cognition Special Pops NH HCBS
Q1a/Q2a by NH Subpopulations NH HCBS
Results • Following slide shows output from preliminary analysis • Groups (boxes) with lighter color more like Passages individuals • Groups with darker colors less like Passages individuals

Results – “Focused Approach” • Groups “most like” Passages individuals: • < 65, in facility 60d-2yr, at most mildly cognitively impaired (A, B, D) • < 65, in facility >2yr, with hemiplegia, quadriplegia, or paraplegia (C) • 65+ age, in facility 60d-2yr, in lowest RUG-III case-mix groups, cognitively intact (E) • Focused target is 1.5% of entire NF population • 62.2% sensitivity • 98.5 specificity
Next Steps • Link new data with: • Medicaid identifiers • Death records • Length of stay information • Examine longitudinal outcomes • Identify “boutique” populations • What are your ideas to define these? • Make data available to UoM LTC researchers • Could we forge a common research agenda?
