In this study, we examined Medicaid utilization and expenditure patterns of Medicaid recipients in intermediate care facilities for the mentally retarded (ICF's/MR) in three States: California, Georgia, and Michigan. Data were obtained from uniform Medicaid data files (Tape-to-Tape project). Most recipients in ICF's/MR were nonelderly adults with severe or profound mental retardation who were in an ICF/MR for the entire year. The average annual cost of care ranged from $26,617 per recipient in Georgia to $36,128 per recipient in Michigan. The vast majority of recipients were low utilizers of other Medicaid services. Approximately one-third of the recipients were also covered by Medicare.
在本研究中，我们调查了加利福尼亚州、佐治亚州和密歇根州三个州的智力发育迟缓者中级护理机构（ICF's/MR）中医疗补助受助人的医疗补助使用情况和支出模式。数据来自统一的医疗补助数据文件（磁带对磁带项目）。ICF's/MR中的大多数受助人是患有严重或极重度智力发育迟缓的非老年成年人，他们一整年都在ICF/MR机构中。护理的年均费用从佐治亚州每位受助人26,617美元到密歇根州每位受助人36,128美元不等。绝大多数受助人对其他医疗补助服务的使用较少。大约三分之一的受助人也有医疗保险覆盖。
