Study Summary
Long-term care (LTC) can be defined as the range of institutional and home and community-based services that support individuals needing chronic care. The defining values of LTC in the VA include caring for patients in the "least restrictive environment consistent with meeting a patient's needs". VA faces an increasing demand for these services with the growing number of veterans 85 years and older, those most in need of LTC. Yet in fiscal year 2007, 87% of the 3.5 billion total VA dollars spent on LTC went to institutional care rather than the less restrictive Home and Community Based Services (HCBS). VA Central Office has formally committed to tripling the proportion of LTC that is HCBS between 1999 and 2011. Study Objectives: (1) Develop and test measures of patient/caregiver and provider satisfaction. (2) Develop and test measures of process and cost of the LTC referrals. Methods: Three VAMCs in VISN 11 are the study setting. This study was conducted from October 2007-June 2010 and utilized a variety of data sources throughout this timeframe. Data sources included: the Geriatric Extended Care form, telephone and in-person interviews, online and paper surveys, Extended Care Screening Committee meeting minutes, and technical reports from the Health Economics Resource Center. Status: Complete.
