Download or read book Medicare Patients and Postacute Care written by Carl Richard Neu and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 1989 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of an effort to understand better the "natural history" of episodes of care among Medicare beneficiaries, this report documents patterns of postacute care use by Medicare patients and explores some factors that may explain these patterns. The research suggests that there are factors unrelated to a patient's medical condition that determine the setting in which postacute care is given. These factors include economic and social circumstances, and characteristics of the discharging hospital. Specifically, whites are significantly more likely to use skilled nursing facility (SNF) care than nonwhites, whereas nonwhites are significantly more likely to use home health care than whites. A similar pattern is repeated at the hospital level: Patients discharged from hospitals with a "disproportionate share" of Medicaid patients are less likely to receive SNF care but more likely to use home health care than are patients discharged from other hospitals. Because SNF and home health care appear to be substitutes for each other, policy measures that affect care in one of these settings will probably affect care in the other.

Download or read book After Hospitalization written by David C. Goodman (MD) and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first national report to look at how effectively communities and hospitals coordinate care for some of their sickest patients--those leaving the hospital after a stay to treat an acute or chronic illness. Without high-quality care coordination, patients can bounce from home to the emergency room and back into the hospital, sometimes repeatedly. Hospital readmission rates are increasingly seen as markers of local health care systems' ability to coordinate care for patients across the full continuum of care settings: hospitals, rehabilitation and skilled nursing facilities, nursing homes, clinician offices, hospice and home. Better care coordination promises to reduce readmission rates and improve patients' lives while reducing costs.
