Use of acute care hospital services by immigrant seniors in Ontario : a linkage study / by Edward Ng, Claudia Sanmartin, Jack Tu and Doug Manuel.: CS82-003/2014-10-2E-PDF
"Seniors constitute the largest group of hospital users. The increasing share of immigrants in Canada's senior population can affect the demand for hospital care. This study used the linked 2006 Census-Hospital Discharge Abstract Database to examine hospitalization during the 2004-to-2006 period, by immigrant status, of Ontario seniors living in community. Hospitalization was assessed with logistic regressions; cumulative length of stay, with zero-truncated negative binomial regressions. All-cause hospitalizations specific to circulatory and digestive diseases were examined"--Abstract, page 15.
