| Annotation | Since implementation of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act 1987 (OBRA), quality of care in US nursing homes has not markedly improved. This summary outlines the main points in an article by the author, "Regulating US nursing homes: are we learning from experience?" (Health Affairs, November/December 2001, vol 20, no 6, pp 128-144). It focuses on the impact of regulation on performance and the features responsible for the system's shortcomings. (RH). |
