The problem often is, however, that existing programs for one reason or another are weak, especially in reaching the desired population and in the area of followup care. The question arises as to whether there is any way of using the valuable experience of traditional public health methodology to reach the community with an approach that would be more responsive to its health needs and more effective in meeting these needs. To that end we proposed and executed a pilot study that was based on the resolve of the department of community medicine, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, \"to identify and solve health problems in the community.\" We decided to select a disease that was easily identifiable by the general population and for which there was a relatively simple and highly visible solution. The approach was to be one of search and service, with a view to developing a network of indigenous epidemiologic intelligence within a given community; namely, East Harlem. Amputation of an extremity was selected as the most recognizable disease entity for which followup services are accessible, available, and effective. In this study an amputee is defined as a person lacking part or all of one or more extremities.","PeriodicalId":78306,"journal":{"name":"HSMHA health reports","volume":"86 12 1","pages":"1092-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1971-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2307/4594393","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69132569","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

How many persons eligible for the Medicaid program have not received these benefits? We usually do not know, since data on the actual number of persons who are eligible but not receiving service under a social program are generally not readily available. Only for limited geographic areas, are data more readily at hand for comparing, area by area, how well the poor-as defined by a national standard of poverty-are covered by various social programs. From data on program coverage in these small areas, then, we not only can determine the proportion of the poor with coverage in pockets of poverty, but also the proportion that is without coverage. Moreover, observations based on national, regional, State, or city data frequently cannot be applied to local areas. Measurements of program coverage in larger areas generally just average down the concentration of the population affected. As an example, the percent of persons on welfare in Pennsylvania in June 1969 was 4.5, compared with 25.8 percent in the area of the southeast Philadelphia neighborhood health center surveyed. More specifically, 40.7 percent of the families in one census tract in this city neighborhood were on welfare.","PeriodicalId":78306,"journal":{"name":"HSMHA health reports","volume":"86 12 1","pages":"1099-106"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1971-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2307/4594394","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69132581","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
