Item Nursing Facility Characteristics Are Differentially Associated With Family Satisfaction and Regulatory Star Ratings(Southern Gerontological Society, 2025-01-08) Millar, Roberto J.; Diehl, Christin; Kusmaul, Nancy; Stockwell, IanResearch suggests that nursing facility structural characteristics are important contributors toward residents’ quality of care. We use 2021 data from 220 Maryland nursing facilities to examine associations between two different quality-of-care metrics: family satisfaction and Care Compare five-star quality ratings. We used descriptive statistics to explore differences in quality metrics across facility ownership (for-profit vs. non-profit), geographic location (urban vs. rural), and resident census (1–60, 61–120, and 121+). Relationships were examined across overall ratings, as well as across subdomains of the two frameworks (e.g., staffing). Family members of residents in non-profit, rural, and low-census facilities rated facilities higher. Non-profit and low-resident census facilities were more likely to be rated four or five stars, while no significant association was observed across geographic location, or interactions across structural factors. Findings emphasize the need for comprehensive quality-of-care frameworks that explore quality care across stakeholders and types of facilities.Item Mississippi Medicaid Expansion Policy Option Analysis(The Hilltop Institute, 2024-04-10) The Hilltop InstituteAs Mississippi is actively considering expanding its Medicaid program, Hilltop created this informational brief to capture key facts regarding Medicaid policy options as they apply to a potential Medicaid expansion in Mississippi.Item Mississippi Medicaid Expansion and Work Requirements(The Hilltop Institute, 2024-03-13) The Hilltop InstituteAs Mississippi is actively considering expanding its Medicaid program, Hilltop created this informational brief to capture key facts regarding Medicaid work requirements as they apply to a potential Medicaid expansion in Mississippi.Item Medical Day Care Services Waiver Infographic: FY 2019 to FY 2022(The Hilltop Institute, 2024-05-01) The Hilltop InstituteThe Medical Day Care (MDC) Services Waiver provides health, social, and related support services in a community-based setting to functionally disabled adults aged 16 and older.
