Background. This article compares national estimates of utilization of and expenditures for dental care and office-based medical care. The comparison includes respondents in several socioeconomic and demographic categories. Methods. The focus of the analyses is on dental care and office-based medical care utilization during 1987. Specifically, the authors provide national estimates for numbers of dental and office-based medical visits made, expenditures for and sources of payment for each of several socioeconomic and demographic categories using household survey data from the 1987 National Medical Expenditure Survey, or NMES. Results. Data show that out-of-pocket expenditures are greater for dental care than for office-based medical care;that few Medicaid dollars are spent on dental care;that insurance is an important component of dental and office-based medical care;and that dentists provide greater amounts of unreimbursed care than do their office-based physician counterparts. Conclusions. NMES data show that dental care expenditures are considerable, almost as large as expenditures for office-based medical care, and are a significant component of all nonhospital health care expenditures for noninstitutionalized Americans. Practice Implications. U.S. dentists provide a significant amount of care. By understanding these analyses, practitioners will be better positioned to provide care and to better meet the dental needs of all Americans.

Dental care utilization: How saturated is the patient market? (vol 130, pg 573, 1999)

引用

JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN DENTAL ASSOCIATION 1999年第10期130卷 1430-1430页

作者： Brown, LJ Lazar, VL American Dental Association Health Policy Resources Center

Background. Dental care utilization is the percentage of the population who access dental services over a specified period. In this article, the authors report on the results of several dental care utilization studies. Methods. To date, dental utilization data have been gathered by large national studies via telephone interviews, face-to-face interviews or written surveys. In this article, the authors report on and compare dental care utilization rates provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Center for Health Statistics, the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research and the American Dental Association. Results. As captured by the various studies, the percentage of people who indicated they visited a dentist within the past year increased gradually between 1983 and 1997. The authors found that dental care utilization rates are higher among women than they are among men, and they de- crease with age and increase with income and educational level. Conclusions. Although the available data vary, they suggest that more Americans are visiting a dentist. The demand for dental care is increasing overall, as well as across educational, racial and economic lines. Practice Implications. If, as re- cent studies suggest, approximately 75 percent of the population visits a dentist annually, there is only modest room for further expansion of dental care utilization. However, if dental care utilization rates are substantially lower, as reported in older studies, then there is a greater potential for in- creased dental care utilization.

Patients' satisfaction with dental services provided by a university in Hong Kong

引用

INTERNATIONAL DENTAL JOURNAL 1999年第1期49卷 53-59页

作者： Chu, CH Lo, ECM Univ Hong Kong Fac Dent 34 Hosp Rd Hong Kong Peoples R China

This study was a consumer evaluation of the dental care services provided by a university dental clinic in I-long Kong which provides dental care to all university students and staff and their dependants. The objectives of this study were to study the consumers' satisfaction with the dental services;to identify their reasons for not using the dental services;and to compare the opinions of the students with those of the university staff and their spouses. A total of 140 students and 180 staff and their spouses were randomly selected for this study. The response rates were 100 per cent for students and 77 per cent for staff and their spouses. Results showed that both groups of respondents were satisfied with the quality of dental services provided by the university dental clinic. However, they were not satisfied with the long waiting time for an appointment. Students who had not attended the university dental clinic commonly stated that they were busy and had no time for a dental visit. Conversely, many staff and their spouses did not seek care from the university dental clinic because they thought that the fees were high. Although the overall Dental Satisfaction Index (DSI) scores for the students (64.5) and staff and their spouses (65.1) were similar, there were differences in the aspects of the services with which the two group were satisfied or dissatisfied. Thus if the university dental clinic wants to implement changes so as to improve consumer satisfaction and utilisation, a careful analysis of the specific opinions of its various consumer groups is required.

Dental services: Use, expenditures and sources of payment, 1987

引用

JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN DENTAL ASSOCIATION 1999年第4期130卷 500-508页

作者： Manski, RJ Moeller, JF Maas, WR Univ Maryland Sch Dent Dept Oral Hlth Care Delivery Baltimore MD 21201 USA

Background This article pro rides per capita estimates of dental care utilization, expenditures mix of services and sources of payment for each of several socioeconomic and demographic categories. Methods. The focus of the analyses presented here is on dental cafe utilization by the U.S, population during 1987. Specifically, national estimates are provided for dental visits, expenditures, sources of payment and procedure type for each of several socioeconomic and demographic categories using household data from the 1987 National Medical Expenditure Survey, or NMES. Results. During 1987, less that 50 percent of Americans visited a dental office. Americans made approximately 292 million dental visits and received approximately $30 billion worth of dental care, of which $10 billion was paid by insurers, $17 billion was paid out of pocket and $1.6 billion was not reimbursed. Conclusions. These analyses establish the magnitude of the dental care market and the amounts paid by individual patients, private insurance companies and Medicaid. They also reveal that the type of care received varies among people in distinct socioeconomic and demographic groups. Practice Implications. Although the dental care market is substantial, many Americans do not visit a dentist. By understanding these analyses. practitioners will be better positioned to meet the dental needs of all Americans.

Evaluating the effect of usual source of dental care on access to dental services: Comparisons among diverse populations

引用

MEDICAL CARE RESEARCH AND REVIEW 1999年第1期56卷 74-93页

作者： Davidson, PL Cunningham, WE Nakazono, TT Andersen, RM Univ Calif Los Angeles Dept Med & Hlth Serv Los Angeles CA 90095 USA Chapman Univ Orange CA 92666 USA

Data collected from the International Collaborative Study of Oral Health Outcomes USA (ICS-II) research locations were used to evaluate the relationship between having a usual source of dental care (USDC) and access to dental services. The robustness of the USDC effect after reducing simultaneity bias was tested in the population-based samples using sensitivity analysis. Logistic regression results provided evidence that USDC was the strongest and most consistent predictor of a dental visit br the past 12 months regardless of geographic location, denial care delivery system, or cultural diversity of the population. Even after removing cases that had a USDC for less than 1 or 2 years, the effect remained. From a policy perspective, USDC remains critical to understanding and explaining dental care utilization patterns. The findings suggest the need for designing interventions to increase the availability of a regular provider among vulnerable populations.

Variation in dental service provision among adult migrant public-funded patients

引用

AUSTRALIAN AND NEW ZEALAND JOURNAL OF PUBLIC HEALTH 1999年第6期23卷 639-642页

作者： Brennan, DS Spencer, AJ Univ Adelaide AIHW Dent Stat & Res Unit Dept Dent Adelaide SA 5005 Australia

Objective: To examine type of care, oral health status and service patterns by country of birth and language. Methods: A random sample of public-funded patients (n=6,109) was surveyed in 1995-96. Results: Emergency care was highest among overseas-born patients who spoke a non-English language at home;edentulism was highest among Australian-born/English only patients;while a higher percentage of Australian-born persons were in the periodontal health category (chi(2): p<0.05). Differences in caries experience were generally small (ANOVA;p<0.05). Service provision varied by country of birth/language after controlling for sociodemographic characteristics, type of care, and oral health status in six service areas (logistic regression;p<0.05). Conclusions: Service patterns may reflect behavioural and cultural factors of patients or providers operating independently of socio-demographic and oral health status variables. Implications Variation and potential inequality in service patterns related to cultural factors existed within a group of disadvantaged patients.
