The evaluation of the National Long Term Care Demonstration. 8. The effect of channeling on health and long-term care costs
Health Serv Res.
1988 Apr.
Abstract
Expanded community care for the frail elderly has been advocated based on its potential for financial cost saving. However, the evaluation found that average costs increased: the cost of expanding publicly financed case management and formal community services beyond what already was provided was not offset by reductions in the costs for nursing home care.
