Why should hospitals be concerned about readmission?
1. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is targeting hospital readmissions for cost reductions.
2. One in five Medicare patients is readmitted to the hospital within 30 days of discharge, costing billions of dollars.
3. CMS will begin imposing financial penalties for excessive readmissions for Heart Failure, Acute Myocardial Infarction and Pneumonia beginning in October, 2012.
4. Hospitals in the bottom quartile on readmissions will suffer penalties in the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of dollars.
The measurement clock is ticking.
The measurement period has already begun. Now is the time to identify and implement a plan to reduce readmissions, improve clinical outcomes and increase patient satisfaction.
