目标。通过使用信托来确定社区居住的老年人(70岁以上)可能影响其获得养老院医疗补助资格的比例,并量化信托的流行程度和预测因素。州特定的医疗补助资格规定被用来确定资格,并确定那些可以通过使用信托来影响同样的人。使用多元逻辑回归来确定具有信任的相关因素。结果:每10个老年社区居民中就有4个有可能通过使用信托来获得医疗补助;然而,只有不到10%的人拥有信托。平均而言,较富有的人拥有信托。避免遗嘱认证和控制死后资产似乎是老年人建立信托的更强动机,而不是实现医疗补助支出的减少。讨论。信托的使用并不常见,对信托的人来说,减少支出以外的动机更重要。我们的研究结果表明,几乎不需要政策努力来限制信托的使用,以实现支出下降。
Objective.To identify the proportion of community-dwelling elderly persons (70+) who could affect their eligibility for Medicaid financing of a nursing home stay through the use of a trust and to quantify the prevalence and predictors of trusts.Methods.State-specific Medicaid eligibility regulations were used to determine eligibility and to identify those who could affect the same through the use of trusts. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify correlates of having a trust. Wave 1 of the Assets and Health Dynamics of the Oldest Old (AHEAD) data base was used.Results.Four in 10 elderly community dwellers could potentially qualify for Medicaid by using a trust; however, less than 10% had a trust. On average, wealthier persons had trusts. Avoidance of probate and controlling assets after death appear to be stronger motivations for trust creation among the elderly than achieving Medicaid spend down.Discussion.The use of trusts was not common, and motives other than spend down were more important for those with trusts. Our results suggest little need for policy efforts to limit the use of trusts to achieve spend down.
