Abstract

Although overlaps exist in the provision of home care services financed by Medicare and Medicaid, interactions of the two funding sources at the beneficiary and home care provider levels have not been widely studied. The recent dramatic declines in Medicare home health spending present a rare opportunity to examine how changes in Medicare spending can affect the provision of Medicaid home care services. We conducted a study of Medicare-Medicaid dynamics in the state of Connecticut to shed light on the inter-relationships of the two funding sources.

摘要

尽管由医疗保险（Medicare）和医疗补助计划（Medicaid）资助的家庭护理服务存在重叠，但这两种资金来源在受益人和家庭护理提供者层面的相互作用尚未得到广泛研究。医疗保险家庭健康支出最近的急剧下降提供了一个难得的机会，来研究医疗保险支出的变化如何影响医疗补助计划家庭护理服务的提供。我们对康涅狄格州医疗保险与医疗补助计划的动态关系进行了一项研究，以阐明这两种资金来源之间的相互关系。
