Capitman, John A.; And Others
Gerontologist, v27 n6 p780-87 Dec 1987
Examined public and private costs for nursing home applicants participating in Virginia Nursing Home Pre-Admission Screening Program. Found that applicants diverted to community care were less dependent and had greater informal supports than those admitted, and that public and private payments for community care were lower than for nursing home care.
