The Commonwealth Fund and Brown University conducted a survey of long-term care leaders.
Over 1100 respondents, including consumer advocates, providers, public
officials, and policy experts, completed the survey between September
2007 and March 2008.
Among the findings, eighty-five percent ranked the workplace as one of
the top three challenges facing long-term care, followed by financing
(66%) and achieving quality (60%). More ranked nursing homes as fair or
poor (53%) than other service types, including hospices (6%). They
favored adopting savings incentives and adding a long-term care benefit
to Medicare. Few had faith in consumer report cards to help people make
informed choices. Read more by downloading the top-level findings.
