Wisconsin Touts Secret Weapon To Reduce Hospital Readmissions

Nation wide hospital readmission rates have remained difficult to reduce.  Serious health system planners report the effort requires a consistent inclusive collaborative approach.   Regardless of the difficulties (CMS) The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid have concluded that a readmission to a hospital setting within 30 days of discharge is unacceptable.

  Wisconsin medical providers and the community have turned to a recently released copyright process designed to prepare a clear path for each care transition.   Authorized for distribution in cooperation with Home Care Path LLC the PATH ALONG App
http://appsmakerstore.com/appim/j6kcdet8xvwk4s  is available for free download through the appsmakerstore.

Information on the PATH ALONG App facilitates an assessment risk for a rehospitalization.  The PATH ALONG condensed communicates concise instructions for improving recovery with each defined transition of care.   Residents of south central Wisconsin have access to a supportive care worker for 20.00 per hour.  This is technology, helpful information, and access to service in the individuals hands. 

Seniors are reporting they love the abbreviated aspect and would not go in to the hospital without their PATH ALONG App.
