Description This study addressed the question of whether alternative care modes are cost effective options for the elderly who would otherwise seek nursing home care. Descriptive and comparative information about the primarily elderly populations of the Utah state funded community based Alternatives in Long Term Care (TAP) Program and the federal/state funded Medicaid programs for intermediate care facility (ICF) level of nursing home care were examined. Results suggest that nursing personnel should be sensitive to political influences and decision making regarding cost effectiveness of alternative programs.
