Regional resource allocations for home care: An experiment

E. Shapiro

American Journal of Public Health, 1980, vol. 70, issue 1, 77-78

Abstract: Decentralized health service delivery responsive to the needs of local populations implies allocating program funds to regions on the basis of predetermined criteria that can facilitate effective planning and budgeting. In 1974, the Manitoba Continuing Care Program attempted to develop a formula for regional allocations for health care services. Four methods were assessed; their strengths and weaknesses are briefly discussed.
