| Research Abstract |
This study was to identify medical care use among older frail adults during their stay in a long-term care facility under Japan's public long-term care insurance. This study revealed that the most frequently performed blood test in the facility was serum albumin concentration. Chest radiography was the most commonly performed radiological diagnostic examination. Prescription drug expenditures varied widely among users. It is important for policy makers to identify medical resource use among older frail persons who use long-term care and to ensure providing appropriate medical care with them.
