The main effects of employment, the contingent effects of parenthood, and the time trends modeled here are the same as reported earlier. (Only two differences occur. First, among white married women, mothers have statistically more acute conditions than nonmothers. We saw this parenthood effect earlier for nonemployed married women, but not for employed ones [results were inconsistent]. The statistical analysis smooths those inconsistencies and reveals that employed mothers also experience more acute conditions than their nonmother peers. Second, among white married women, older housewives show statistically increased chronic limitation over time. Earlier we saw a rise for housewives without children. The latter parenthood effect is statistically smaller than the age effect.) The singular advantage of the statistical analysis has been its ability to highlight interaction effects among the variables, some of which were not considered in the descriptive section. Comparing the models, note how those for short- and long-term disability are very similar to each other but distinctly different from the acute-condition models. This means that social roles and age influence short- and long-term disability in the same way. Specifically, both are greater for older and nonemployed women, being especially high for older nonemployed women and housewives without children. By contrast, the most consistent factor affecting acute-condition incidence and impact is presence of children. Children increase their mothers' experience of acute problems but reduce the amount of recuperative time and medical care taken for them.","PeriodicalId":76697,"journal":{"name":"The Milbank Memorial Fund quarterly.

The federalized system of control mechanisms for credentialing, together with the procedures of accreditation, institutional rationing of practice privileges, peer review, malpractice actions, and the like, supplies a complex and often redundant array of regulations. These devices are manipulated by several federal agencies, each of the 50 states, professional groups, and several private organizations. These regulations are perceived by many to be a significant barrier to ongoing efforts to encourage costcontainment through more widespread use of competitive incentives in the health care industry. Health manpower regulations govern the locations and settings within which professionals can work and the activities of professionals in the course of their practice. The justification for these controls is the belief that the public interest will best be served if poorly trained, incompetent, and unethical people are kept from practicing. If these regulations are effective, they will ensure the patients' safe treatment by prohibiting some people from pursuing careers and will appropriately modify the behavior of practicing professionals.

Quality assurance approaches, including those of the Joint Commission on Hospital Accreditation, often emphasize audit and identification of problems, but are less oriented toward the establishment of effective mechanisms to change the problems thus identified (Anderson and Shields 1982). Traditional continuing education programs, relying on voluntary participation of physicians, have generally failed to reach those physicians most in need of training (Lewis and Hassanein 1970). The pharmaceutical industry has taken a central role in continuing drug education for the practicing physician, but there is concern that the commercial origins of such efforts may have a biasing effect on the information thus provided (Avorn, Chen, and Hartley 1982). Medication use in hospitals accounts for a large proportion of the $25 billion spent annually on drugs in the United States (Freeland and Schendler 1983), and represents an important percentage of hospital expenditures.","PeriodicalId":76697,"journal":{"name":"The Milbank Memorial Fund quarterly.
