Direct effect represents the impact (e.g. change in employment or

revenues) for the expenditures and/or production values specified as

direct final demand changes.

Indirect effect represents the impact (e.g. change in employment) caused

by the iteration of industries purchasing from industries resulting from

direct final demand changes.

Induced effect represents the impacts on all local industries caused by

the expenditures of new household income generated by the direct and

indirect effects of direct final demand changes.

Total effect is the sum of the direct, indirect and induced effects.

Bruce Yarwood, President and CEO of AHCA, also said a separate analysis of the $770 million CMS Medicare cuts finds the regulatory changes will incur an $11.12 per patient day (PPD) cut in Medicare-financed nursing home care nationally, and will have the most significant negative impact on seniors in California, Florida, New York, Texas, Ohio, Illinois, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Michigan and Mass
