Abstract

It is generally agreed that nonprofit nursing homes pay higher wages to their employees, hire more staff per patient, and are thus more costly than for-profit nursing homes. We attempt to show that higher costs in nonprofit nursing homes are related to higher quality of care in these homes. Using the 1985 National Nursing Home Survey, we show that nurses in nonprofit nursing homes have different characteristics than nurses in for-profit homes and that these differences in characteristics account for the differences in wages, a finding consistent with our hypothesis concerning quality differences between types of homes.

为什么非营利性养老院支付更高的护士工资。

人们普遍认为，非营利性养老院给员工支付更高的工资，每个病人雇佣更多的员工，因此比营利性养老院的成本更高。我们试图证明，非营利性养老院的高成本与这些养老院的高质量护理有关。利用1985年的全国养老院调查，我们发现非营利性养老院的护士与营利性养老院的护士具有不同的特征，这些特征的差异解释了工资的差异，这一发现与我们关于不同类型家庭质量差异的假设一致。
