Description
Haiqun Lin and co-authors trace where older adults get care in the last three years of life. Their 2023 study uses Medicare data for people who died in 2018. Days in each care place were counted by quarter, giving a baseline from before COVID-19.
Group models found nine clear paths of care. Some paths used much care only in the last three months, while others used steady home or facility care. The team also links each path to traits of the person, such as age and illness. Knowing these paths helps planners match home care, hospice, and beds to real need.
