Disenrollment patterns in Medicare HMOs: a preliminary analysis.
This paper examines disenrollment patterns of 17 Medicare Competition Demonstration HMOs during 1984. Characteristics of HMO disenrollees for a sample of Medicare beneficiaries from two surveys conducted in early 1985 and 1986 are also examined. These data provide a preliminary, descriptive analysis of the nature and the implications of Medicare HMO disenrollment.
