Because there is a lack of databases specific to long-term care, standardized assessments of nursing home residents are seen as a potential new resource for studying an important but neglected population. We describe the design and principal population characteristics of the first integrated database combining detailed clinical information and administrative claims data.

Abstract
Because there is a lack of databases specific to long-term care, standardized assessments of nursing home residents are seen as a potential new resource for studying an important but neglected population. We describe the design and principal population characteristics of the first integrated database combining detailed clinical information and administrative claims data.
