Abstract
Home health agencies are examined in terms of changes their organizations have experienced as a result of federal health care cost-containment policies. Contrasts are made between data collected from a sample of home health agencies in 1983 and 1984. Some attention is also given to differences in home health agency experiences by state. Home health agencies are beginning to change their tax status to for-profit and to try to attract private insurance clients which may potentially alter the home health market in favor of younger clients. The agencies experienced many more denial of claims by the Medicare fiscal intermediaries in 1984 than in 1983.
