OBJECTIVE: This report presents numbers and percents of home health and hospice care agencies, their current patients, and their discharges. Agency characteristics include type of ownership, region, certification, location, and affiliation. Patient and discharge characteristics include age, sex, race, marital status admission diagnoses, and procedures.
METHODS: The data used for this report are from the National Center for Health Statistics' 1996 National Home and Hospice Care Survey. This is a sample survey through which data are collected on the use of home health and hospice care agencies in the United States.
RESULTS: During 1996, there were an estimated 2.5 million current patients and 8.2 million discharges from 13,500 home health and hospice care agencies in the United States. The agencies tended to be proprietary, certified by Medicare and Medicaid as a home health agency, and located in a metropolitan statistical area. Almost half were part of a chain or group of agencies. The home health and hospice care patients and discharges tended to be 65 years of age and over, female, white, and married or widowed. The most common diagnoses for home health care patients were diseases of the circulatory system, and the most common diagnoses for hospice care patients were malignant neoplasms. About a third of the home health care patients and about a fifth of the hospice care patients had a surgical or diagnostic procedure related to their admission for care. The most common procedures for home health care patients were operations on the musculoskeletal system, and for hospice care patients they were miscellaneous diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
