  • Title: A proposal for the deinstitutionalization of patients.
    Author: Ward WJ.
    Journal: Health Care Manage Rev; 1983; 8(2):73-7. PubMed ID: 6408025.
    Abstract:
    Outpatient treatment of cancer patients, often medically and psychologically sound, results in great savings for insurers but increased out-of-pocket expenses to patients. If insurers were to reimburse for nonmedical out-of-pocket costs as well as medical, this disincentive to deinstitutionalization would be removed.
