| 20150348075 | COMMUNITY UTILIZATION MODELS - Specialty healthcare in a community is analyzed by calculating an average number of cases in a region which includes and is larger than the community, calculating an expected number of cases for the community based on the average, and comparing the expected number of cases to a number of actual cases for the community. The community may be a contiguous service area surrounding a hospital, and the region is a state containing the service area. Cases can be filtered according to patient demographics, such as age, and in particular the analysis can be tailored for Medicare. The analysis results in a community utilization differential which is divided by physician productivity to determine an actual number of specialty physicians needed for the community. The cases may be based in part on services performed by non-doctor healthcare professionals, but the physician productivity is based on a physician count which excludes such professionals. | 12-03-2015 |
