November 5, 2019
US Hospitals spend $41.3 billion per year on 3.3 million adult 30-day all-cause readmissions. To address the rate of readmissions, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has established value-based care incentives in the form of financial penalties for hospitals and skilled nursing facilities.
This whitepaper discusses factors that increase the risk for readmissions, costs associated with readmissions, and how providers are lowering readmission rates for better value-based care. Learn how hospitals, primary care, and post-acute providers around the country are teaming up to:
Reduce all-cause 30-day readmissions by 78 percent
Improve follow-up and reporting for fewer readmissions and revenue gains of up to 30 percent
Save $1.8 million in care costs through improved transitions of care
Research has demonstrated enhanced technology can improve communication between patients, families and care providers, improve motivation, and has the potential to effect better outcomes and higher levels of patient satisfaction.

The question is, are we paying enough attention to their unique needs?
A recent nationwide survey of healthcare professionals indicates there is vast room for improvement. We encourage you to download the complete results.

Integrating emergency medicine (EM) and hospital medicine (HM) services promotes collaboration and engagement between disciplines. Within an integrated EM/HM model, EM clinicians and hospitalists share accountability for streamlining admissions processes and achieving lower average length of stay, reduced readmissions and improved patient experience.
At one Central California hospital, readmission rates exceeded the CMS Quality benchmark stipulated by the Affordable Care Act, resulting in a near 1.5 million dollar potential revenue loss from Medicare reimbursements in 2017. This facility sought the help of Envision Physician Services to address the source of these excessive readmission rates and create a solution to avoid Medicare penalties.
With Envision’s integrated EM/HM care model, the hospital reduced its 30-day readmission rate from 11.69 percent to 5.21 percent, ultimately avoiding 1.5 million dollars in revenue loss from Medicare reimbursements and creating a more patient-centric care model.
