Continuing Care Retirement Communities: An Analysis of Financial Viability and Health Care Coverage.
Ruchlin, Hirsch S.
Gerontologist, v28 n2 p156-62 Apr 1988
Calculated financial ratios for 109 Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs). Noted problems with regard to asset productivity, profitability, and equity levels. Found that a risk-spreading charge structure for financing health care needs appeared to exist among CCRCs providing a full-care contract. (Author/ABL)
