This research analyzes publicly available information on the quality of services delivered by healthcare organizations. The accessibility and transparency of healthcare data is exponentially growing. Due to the complexity of different provider groups in healthcare, the focus is on the nursing home industry. A key objective of this research is to explore any association among the government-defined quality ratings, cost-effectiveness, and quality care provided by a nursing home. Quality and performance metrics for all nursing homes that receive reimbursements from CMS is in the public domain. The CMS purports that nursing homes with high overall star ratings provide excellent healthcare to their residents. A surprising result from this study found high-quality-rated nursing homes with more nurse hours per resident provided lower quality care than nursing homes, which had lower nursing hours per resident. The research also suggests that healthcare organizations, such as nursing homes, acquire business analytics (BA) capabilities for specific government metrics.

AbstractBackgroundNursing homes have become the epicentre of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in Canada. Previous research demonstrates that for-profit nursing homes deliver inferior care across a variety of outcome and process measures, raising the question of whether for-profit homes have had worse COVID-19 outcomes than non-profit homes.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study of all nursing homes in Ontario, Canada from March 29-May 20, 2020 using a COVID-19 outbreak database maintained by the Ontario Ministry of Long-Term Care. We used hierarchical logistic and count-based methods to model the associations between nursing home profit status (for-profit, non-profit or municipal) and nursing home COVID-19 outbreaks, COVID-19 outbreak sizes, and COVID-19 resident deaths.ResultsThe analysis included all 623 Ontario nursing homes, of which 360 (57.7%) were for-profit, 162 (26.0%) were non-profit, and 101 (16.2%) were municipal homes. There were 190 (30.5%) COVID-19 nursing home outbreaks involving 5218 residents (mean of 27.5 ± 41.3 residents per home), resulting in 1452 deaths (mean of 7.6 ± 12.7 residents per home) with an overall case fatality rate of 27.8%. The odds of a COVID-19 outbreak was associated with the incidence of COVID-19 in the health region surrounding a nursing home (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 1.94; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.23-3.09) and number of beds (aOR, 1.40; 95% CI 1.20-1.63), but not profit status. For-profit status was associated with both the size of a nursing home outbreak (adjusted risk ratio [aRR], 1.96; 95% CI 1.26-3.05) and the number of resident deaths (aRR, 1.78; 95% CI 1.03-3.07), compared to non-profit homes. These associations were mediated by a higher prevalence of older nursing home design standards in for-profit homes.Interpretation: For-profit status is associated with the size of a COVID-19 nursing home outbreak and the number of resident deaths, but not the likelihood of outbreaks. Differences between for profit and non-profit homes are largely explained by older design standards, which should be a focus of infection control efforts and future policy.
