Developing public information on nursing home quality.

The need for greater public information about nursing home quality is growing. While there are problems in using existing administrative data on nursing home quality from federal certification surveys, it is probably more feasible to use such data than to conduct direct surveys of residents and their family members and friends. Administrative records could be used to provide greater information on quality than is currently reported by the Health Care Financing Administration. These records could also be used to develop a rating system for nursing homes based upon key quality indicators and administrative sanctions. This challenge is one that should be undertaken to ensure greater access to information on quality of care in nursing homes and to stimulate efforts by nursing homes to improve quality.
