Variations in care planning practice in the social/HMO: an exploratory study

R Abrahams, J Capitman, W Leutz and P Macko

In this exploratory study, we examined the influence of provider settings, organizational structures, and community climates on long- term care resource allocation. We analyzed care plan decisions at each of the four Social/HMO sites for the same seven clients. Differences by site were found in eligibility determination and allocation of care plans, as well as types and mix of services prescribed. Issues are raised about the influence of provider settings on legitimation of types of needs and clients that are served.
