Abstract
The aim of the project was to apply the John Hopkins ACG case-mix system, Rx-PM model, to the Swedish National Drug Register (period 2006-2008). Its intention was to analyze and compare results between different county councils, and analyze if drug use in the population can be employed to approximate the need for care, and as a tool to adjust the capitation payment system in the county councils. This paper focuses on the comparisons between the different county councils. Practical examples and usage of data are presented.
