New Research from ATI Advisory Finds I-SNP Enrollment Associated with Better Outcomes for Long-Term Care Residents

In this episode of Global Economic Press, Alex Brady discusses a groundbreaking study by ATI Advisory that examines the impact of Institutional Special Needs Plan enrollment on healthcare outcomes for long-term care residents. The research highlights how these plans can lead to improved health outcomes and experiences for seniors with complex medical needs. The study, funded by the American Health Care Association and the National Center for Assisted Living, found that Institutional Special Needs Plan enrollment was associated with better outcomes across seven of nine studied measures, including lower rates of emergency department visits, hospitalizations, hospital readmissions, pressure ulcers, infections, falls with major injury, and mortality risk. ATI Advisory's report, titled "Institutional Special Needs Plan Enrollment and Outcomes in Long-Term Care Settings," analyzes data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Virtual Research Data Center for Medicare enrollees with extended nursing facility stays. The findings suggest that coordinated care approaches, such as Institutional Special Needs Plans, can significantly enhance health outcomes for seniors with complex medical needs. Despite these positive outcomes, access to Institutional Special Needs Plans remains limited, with a significant portion of nursing facilities and counties lacking such offerings. The report calls on policymakers to address barriers to access and explore the benefits of expanding the program. For more information, visit ATI Advisory's website [https://atiadvisory.com/].
