Example sentences for: uncompensated

How can you use “uncompensated” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Based on a review of relevant literature, we hypothesized that uncompensated hospital care would be more prevalent in states with lower rates of health insurance coverage, higher percentages of foreign-born residents (used to approximate the population of interest affected by PRWORA), higher rates of poverty, and greater percentages of teaching hospitals [ 22 23 24 25 26 ] . We outline the limitations of available data and discuss what information is needed to accurately estimate the outcome of interest.

  • In a deregulated health care system, however, states tended to use these funds to expand Medicaid and/or Medicaid managed care, thus shifting the focus of the pools to reimbursement for charity care only [ 35 ] . Because of the non-uniformity of states' approaches to uncompensated care pools, their limited use, and their changing roles over time, we did not include this factor in our final model.

  • The resulting log-linear model has the convenient property of measuring the relative change in the dependent variable (uncompensated care) for an absolute change in a given predictor variable, controlling for other predictors in the model.

  • Percentage of teaching hospitals greater than 5% was found to be a weak predictor of uncompensated care, but was not significant ( P = .601).

  • Results of the multivariable regression modeling (Table 1) suggest that, controlling for time and a state's foreign-born population, percentage of teaching hospitals, and implementation decision, a 1% increase in a state's uninsured population yields a 4.1% increase in the amount of uncompensated care provided ( P < .001).
