SB 1004 Implementation Technical Assistance Series: Estimating Volume and Baseline Costs

Generating an estimate of the number of eligible members is an important piece of palliative care service implementation planning. Understanding how eligible members are currently utilizing health care resources can assist in estimating and eventually assessing program impact and in targeting outreach/educational efforts.

  • Review a method for understanding baseline utilization patterns in the final year of life among eligible patients/members
  • Consider how other groups have approached the task of estimating the number of people appropriate for palliative care and baseline utilization patterns
