碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 公共衛生學研究所 === 84 === The purpose of this study is to explore how health status
changes affect the use of medical services among the
elderly. These data are collected from "The Elderly Long-
term Care Survey" and "Heal th of The Elderly and Long-term
Care Survey" in 1993 and 1994.Both of them were longitudinal
research,and the data which age is over or equal to 65 and
register at the four Taipei communities (n=1448). Using
multiple and logistic regression to analysis these data,
to explore if perceived health, physical function and
chronic condition deteriorate that will increase the
utilization of clinic services and hospital admission.
After controlling demographic characteristics, enabling
resources, previous health status, previous use of medical
services and the interaction between health insurance and
residence, the elderly that had chronic condition
deteriorating utilize the clinic services that will be
increased significantly;on the other hand,the elderly that
feel healthier will decrease to visit clinic services. In other
ways, Perceived health deteriorating, chronic condition
deteriorating and physical function declining will raise
the chance of hospital admission,but when the elderly feel
healthier will decrease. All in all,the health status changes
among the elderly are the main factor to influence the
elderly to utilize the medical services when we control the
other variables.
