Abstract
  • The purpose of this project is to paint a picture of the state of Oregon’s Skilled Nursing Facilities for the 2015 state fiscal year. Skilled Nursing Facilities are an important part of Oregon’s Long Term care continuum that provides care to individuals needing post-acute or on-going care. The URAP student assisted Public Health faculty and PhD students in preparing a report for the Oregon Department of Human Services. The student extracted, managed, summarized, and performed quality control on data from Skilled Nursing Facility Cost Reports and Revenue Statements. This data was further analyzed by the PhD students. The student also created graphs and tables of these data as well as other data from the Skilled Nursing Facility Minimum Data Set (MDS). The student performed new analyses of quality measure data retrieved though Nursing Home Compare, which is managed by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid services (CMS). These analyses described the variation in performance across Oregon Skilled Nursing Facilities. For example, moderate to severe pain reported in short stays was 11% in the highest performing 25% of all facilities and 42% in the lowest performing 25% of facilities, which highlights differences between the highest and lowest performing facilities.
