摘要:
Utilization of medical care before and after implementation of an extended-benefit program by octogenarian retirees from the automobile industry is described. The initial impact of the new health benefits indicates that more people receive medical treatment; this finding holds for all types of care— hospital, nursing home, operations, and physician contacts. The findings also suggest the limited utility of social factors as predictors of differences in medical care utilizations, unlike the findings of studies of younger age groups.
