Effect of FHS on measures of hospital resource use
| Hospital days for ACSC (per 1000 population) | Hospital expenditure on ACSC (R$ per capita) | |||
| Model 1 (95% CI) | Model 2 (95% CI) | Model 1 (95% CI) | Model 2 (95% CI) | |
| FHS coverage | 1.5 ** (0.008 to 3.0) | 2.9 *** (1.4 to 4.4) | 0.2 ** (0.2 to 0.4) | 0.5 *** (0.3 to 0.7) |
| Observations | 77 084 | 77 056 | 77 084 | 77 056 |
| Municipalities | 5506 | 5504 | 5506 | 5504 |
| Mean (2014) | 54.5 | 54.5 | 9.3 | 9.3 |
Time period is 2000–2014. CIs are shown in parentheses, based on SEs that are clustered by municipality. Data are weighted by the municipality population. Models are estimated in first differences and include state-year fixed effects. Model 1 presents unadjusted estimates (no covariates). Model 2 presents adjusted estimates (covariates included). Expenditures are constant R$ in 2014 values.
