Jameson's Dialectical Aesthetics
In: Rethinking marxism: RM ; a journal of economics, culture, and society, Band 6, Heft 4, S. 66-86
ISSN: 0893-5696
Surveys the major aesthetic concepts within the writings of Fredric Jameson, especially Marxism and Form (1971), The Political Unconscious (1981), & Late Marxism: Adorno, or the Persistence of the Dialectic (1990). The influence of both Georg Lukacs & Theodor W. Adorno on Jameson's theoretical system is noted. Also examined are key philosophical assumptions as well as the historical context behind Jameson's suggestion that the aesthetic approaches of both Lukacs & Adorno may prove to be "two distinct & equally indispensable moments of the hermeneutic process itself.". 42 References.

Implementation of Patient-Centered Medical Homes in Adult Primary Care Practices
In: Medical care research and review, Band 72, Heft 4, S. 438-467
ISSN: 1552-6801
There has been relatively little empirical evidence about the effects of patient-centered medical home (PCMH) implementation on patient-related outcomes and costs. Using a longitudinal design and a large study group of 2,218 Michigan adult primary care practices, our study examined the following research questions: Is the level of, and change in, implementation of PCMH associated with medical surgical cost, preventive services utilization, and quality of care in the following year? Results indicated that both level and amount of change in practice implementation of PCMH are independently and positively associated with measures of quality of care and use of preventive services, after controlling for a variety of practice, patient cohort, and practice environmental characteristics. Results also indicate that lower overall medical and surgical costs are associated with higher levels of PCMH implementation, although change in PCMH implementation did not achieve statistical significance.
Implementation of Care Management: An Analysis of Recent AHRQ Research

Care management (CM) is a promising team-based, patient-centered approach "designed to assist patients and their support systems in managing medical conditions more effectively." As little is known about its implementation, this article describes CM implementation and associated lessons from 12 Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality–sponsored projects. Two rounds of data collection resulted in project-specific narratives that were analyzed using an iterative approach analogous to framework analysis. Informants also participated as coauthors. Variation emerged across practices and over time regarding CM services provided, personnel delivering these services, target populations, and setting(s). Successful implementation was characterized by resource availability (both monetary and nonmonetary), identifying as well as training employees with the right technical expertise and interpersonal skills, and embedding CM within practices. Our findings facilitate future context-specific implementation of CM within medical homes. They also inform the development of medical home recognition programs that anticipate and allow for contextual variation.
