Description

Hoang Nguyen and four co-authors read how Asian Medicare patients are sent to skilled nursing care after hospital stays. Their study, from twenty twenty-three, used the twenty nineteen national Medicare data. Past work found Asian residents of such homes the most frail and the most clouded in thought of all groups. If send rates drive that was not known. The team set Asian rates next to Black, Hispanic, and White rates for six base ills.

The ills ran from bone breaks and heart failure to sepsis, in patients age sixty-six and up. Asian patients had the second lowest send rates for near all ills. Joint replacement broke the run. Readers in elder care get a gap that may mean Asian elders reach such care late and more frail.
