How much funding did you receive from HUD for this program? Were there any other funding sources (e.g. in kind from Siani or CHA, other local funders, etc)?
High Baseline ER rates and Adults/Kids
Submitted by abiridgway on 16 May 2013 - 3:03pm
I have two questions for you:
1.) I was surprised to see the high health care utilization rates at baseline for the people enrolled in the intervention. Did I understand correctly that 68% of people who participated in this program had visited the ER for an asthma related event in the 6 months prior to starting the program?Do you think this rate was unusually high? Or typical of kids/adults living in public housing units with asthma?
