A multi-program cost analysis and planning model for social service programs.

Social service administrators and planners in both the private and public sector are increasingly being held fiscally and programmatically accountable by both sponsors and consumers of services. This paper provides an examination of the trend toward program budgeting and its various techniques which can assist the administrator-planner in developing a more accountable program. A specific approach to cost analysis and planning for multi-program social service agencies is explored through its application in an actual agency setting. The model's application to other social service programs is also discussed.

Prospective payment's impact on ancillary services. Pastoral care, social services: role in reducing medical costs.

Under the prospective payment system, costs for medical social services, as well as for other inpatient services, are reimbursed at a fixed rate according to the patient's diagnosis. Thus hospitals, under the incentives to reduce costs by limiting services and increasing patient volume, will examine ancillary services to determine whether the services increase or decrease costs. Social and pastoral care workers will likely play an important role in hospitals' cost reduction efforts in several ways: Begin forming a discharge plan early in a patient's care, especially for patients who are at high risk for delayed discharge. Evaluate patients and their families to detect problems that may impede treatment and recovery and refer patients to community and hospital resources for help. In the emergency room, guide persons who do not need to be hospitalized to community resources. Record patient information that may help health professionals improve treatment and speed discharge. Such data include patients' financial status, use of community agencies, and rehabilitation. Counsel patients and families as they make treatment decisions.

[Description of selected aspects of health services for elderly citizens by social services in Saxony].

The following analysis describes selected aspects of Saxonian social and medical care for people in need of help and elderly, via "community social service units". Almost 16% of people are older than 65 years in Saxonia, whereas the number of women is twice the number of men. To secure the social and medical care "community social service units" were founded partly from former municipal nursing stations of the former GDR and partly from newly founded institutions. Basic and medical care is an essential part of the supply in "community social service units". To approximate an all-embracing social and medical care, so-called "other tasks" complete the general service from a qualitative point of view.
