The Trilevel Classification System described adapts the useful features of existing classification systems for convenient use in health manpower analysis. A computer program links the Kaiser Clinical-Behavioral Classification system, oriented to the demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of patient populations using ambulatory-care services, with the Geomet Specifications of Care, which in turn utilizes ICDA-coded records and Current Procedural Terminology—coded elements of care. An extensive case study is discussed in which the system is used in an HMO to predict the differential effects of various delegation policies for physician assistants.
所描述的三级分类系统采用了现有分类系统的有用特征，以便于在卫生人力分析中使用。一个计算机程序将以使用门诊护理服务的患者群体的人口统计学和社会经济特征为导向的凯撒临床行为分类系统，与护理的几何规格相联系，而护理的几何规格又利用了国际疾病分类第九版临床修订本编码记录和现行医疗程序术语编码的护理要素。文中讨论了一个广泛的案例研究，其中该系统被用于一个健康维护组织，以预测各种医师助理授权政策的不同效果。
