Objectives.
This study aimed to determine the health-related effects of elderly care through the elderly program (ECEP) compared to those who were put on standby.
Methods.
Analysis was conducted concerning the demographic characteristics and chronic disease prevalence status of 108,803 ECEP participants from 2007 to 2013 and 33,932 recipients of elderly care by the elderly (ECE) in 2013.
A survey was conducted to determine the effects of emotional support on 508 elders who received ECE in 2014.
To determine the effect of elderly care by participation, a comparative analysis was performed using the propensity score method and a differences-in-differences model.
Statistical tests were performed on these study subjects’ medical expenses and utilization of medical care, while they participated in the ECEP.
Results.
ECEP participants incurred a lower total medical expense increase by US$431.94, US$75.54 lower copayment, US$357.60 lower insurance payment, and US$403.04 lower hospitalization costs, compared to the elders who were on standby.
Furthermore, a significant decrease was observed in the number of days of hospitalization, even in the case of medical care utilization.
Those who were receiving elderly care scored an average of 7.70 points on the Short Geriatric Depression Scale.
51% of these individuals showed a significantly high level of depression, with a score of 8 points or higher, which is a criterion for screening for depression.
Conclusions.
The present study showed differences in medical expenses and the utilization of medical care associated with ECEP.
