Study Finds I-SNP Engagement Linked to Increased Hospice Utilization in Nursing Homes with 50 or More Beds

The study, led by the MJHS Institute for Innovation in Palliative Care in collaboration with LeadingAge NY, found that nursing home engagement with I-SNPs is associated with higher hospice enrollment, except in small nursing homes with under 50 beds. The findings suggest that I-SNPs and hospice may be working together in most nursing homes that offer their residents both types of programs.  The study was funded by the Patrick and Catherine Weldon Donaghue Medical Research Foundation.

New York State Nursing Homes: Sponsorship as a Defining Factor in Outcomes

This 2012 sponsorship analysis was conducted by staff from LeadingAge New York.  Results from a comprehensive literature review and a detailed analysis of cost, survey and clinical date suggest that sponsorship has a bearing on certain outcomes of nursing home care including hospitalization rates, survey deficiencies, staffing and quality measures. As the report notes, there are certain caveats to the analysis and resulting conclusions, and further examination is suggested to explore the inter-relationships between the findings, their broader system implications and the associated public policy ramifications.
