Abstract
Long-term care has come to include both an acute component and the more traditional chronic component. The growth in subacute care has occurred under private prepaid auspices but has also been stimulated by changes in Medicare funding for hospitals. Quality improvement techniques, such as critical pathways, have been applied to long-term care.
