| dc.description | One approach to providing cost-effective adult day health care (ADHC) services is to guide both the inputs to ADHC services and the provision of other services so that substitution for institutional services can realistically take place. This approach has been used in a randomized clinical trial to evaluate the medical efficacy and cost of ADHC in the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA). This article describes the strategies that were used to improve the cost effectiveness of ADHC during the evaluation. Cost and use estimates were developed based on the best data available from the DVA and previous research on the cost for patients' use of ADHC, nursing home, hospital, and ambulatory care. A cost workshop was attended by the ADHC managers to develop plans for controlling costs. Plans were identified that increase the likelihood that ADHC can be shown to be less costly than customary care. |
