The competitive model may fit the nursing home sector better than it fits other health care markets, but Medicaid subsidies and regulation have not allowed the market to work freely, and nursing home insurance may cause further divergence from a competitive ideal. Incentives for both providers and consumers that capitalize on competitive aspects of the market might be used to improve outcomes of the nursing home market, especially under a system of comprehensive long-term care insurance.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 01 January 1996.
All research outputs
#9,382,523
of 27,356,215 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Health Politics, Policy and Law
#581
of 1,138 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#4,417
of 14,321 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Health Politics, Policy and Law
#4
of 5 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 27,356,215 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,138 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 16.9. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 14,321 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 7th percentile – i.e., 7% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 5 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
