  17. Objectives • Know the significance of improving the quality of care transitions to reduce avoidable readmissions • Understand the root causes of readmissions in Florida • Recognize the importance of coalition building across care settings to improve patient-centered care

  18. National Strategy for Quality Improvement in Healthcare • Established by the Affordable Care Act • Develops an infrastructure at the community level that assumes responsibility for improvement efforts • Promotes patient-centered outcomes, efficiency, and appropriate care while reducing or eliminating waste from the healthcare system Source: http://www.ahrq.gov/workingforquality/nqs/nqs2013annlrpt.htm#fig3

  22. Definition of Readmissions “… in the case of an individual who is discharged from an applicable hospital, the admission of the individual to the same or another applicable hospital with in 30 days from the date of discharge.” Source: http://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare-fee-for-ServicePayment/AcuteInpatientPPS/Readmissions-Reduction-Program.html

  23. Readmissions Impact Multiple Areas

  24. Magnitude of the Problem • Analysis of 2007 Medicare data finds: • 20% of beneficiaries are re-hospitalized within 30 days • 35% are re-hospitalized within 90 days • Among those re-hospitalized within 30 days: • 50% had no claim for physician services between discharge and re-hospitalization Source: Jencks SF, Williams MV, Coleman EA. Rehospitalizations among patients in the Medicare fee-for-service program. The New England Journal of Medicine. 2009;360:1418-1428.

  25. Magnitude of the Problem (continued) Beneficiaries with 10 or more chronic conditions are 6 times more likely to be readmitted to the hospital. Source: Berkowitz SA, Anderson GF. Medicare beneficiaries most likely to be readmitted. J. Hosp. Med. Nov 2013;8(11):639-641.

  26. Magnitude of the Problem (continued) A managed care organization with 18 hospitals: 250 out of 537(or 47%) readmissions were considered potentially avoidable. Factors contributing to avoidable readmissions: • Index stay • Suboptimal management of the condition present • The discharge process, care transitions, and care coordination • Unaddressed psychological and social needs • Follow-up care • Failure to adjust the plan of care to better meet patient needs Source: Feigenbaum P, Neuwirth E, Trowbridge L, et al.

  28. Risk of Readmissions

  29. Issues Related to Care Transitions: Findings From Florida Communities

  30. Examples of Causes of Readmissions in Florida

  31. Industry Impact $ $ $ $ At $9,600 per readmission in 2011 readmission cost Nation: $18,931,200,000 Florida: $47,833,440 $ $ Source: Medicare FFS Inpatient Claims, 2011.

  32. Patient Impact • Re-hospitalization places patient and family under significant physical and emotional distress. • The patient is at risk for potential medical errors, falls, and infections. • Exposed to Post-Hospital Syndrome: • “During hospitalization, patients are commonly deprived of sleep, experience disruption of normal circadian rhythms, are nourished poorly, have pain and discomfort, confront a baffling array of mentally challenging situations, receive medications that can alter cognition and physical function, and become deconditioned by bed rest or inactivity…” Source: Krumholz HM. Post-hospital syndrome--an acquired, transient condition of generalized risk. N. Engl. J. Med. Jan 10 2013;368(2):100-102.
