National data released by the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation under the United States Department of Health and Human Services indicate spending in the health system is declining.
Figures indicate spending for services in the health care system have grown by less than 4 percent for the 3rd year in a row. Medicare numbers show the average investment per beneficiary in 2012 was only increased by 0.4 percent which is down from 1.9 percent.
National readmission rates have declined from 19 percent to about 17.8 percent. This is a measureable decrease in the number of discharged patients with Medicare as a pay source returning to the hospital for treatment within a 30 day time period.
Health planners attribute the drop in readmissions to community (www.homecarepath.com) providers forging tighter connections to support the individual during outpatient recovery. Hospital readmission rates can come down when the community collaborates to improve support for the discharged individuals.
Wisconsin's PATH ALONG is an original model designed to reduce hospital readmission rates. The information on the PATH ALONG App adds predictable structure (PATH ALONG condensed under iFrame key) to a changing flow respecting personal preference and supports an internal locus of control. The PATH ALONG App delivers information that saves the patient and family from reacting to the varied hospital departments simultaneous operations and keeps the focus on pragmatic aspects present in all favorable outcomes of recovery.
