Sammanfattning
In order to describe the patient case-mix in long-term care, several methods have been developed. Resource Utilization Groups, developed in New York, have also been validated in Stockholm and used there for studying various types of geriatric institutions. The variables used this analysis, the distribution of the RUG categories, an ADL-index, and a case-mix index, show differences between geriatric departments, local nuring homes, mixed institutions, and private nursing homes.
