Wisconsin Place To Start To Reduce Hospital Readmissions

Wisconsin has identified a starting point for effectively reducing hospital readmission rates.  Health insurance payers have agreed hospital readmissions are no longer an accepted part of health care delivery.  Private and public health insurance plans have forged regulations under patient safety and care quality to discourage hospital readmissions. 

Long term health system planners know hospital readmissions are considered a product of the disconnect between inpatient departments and community providers who help the patient recover.  The phrase used for the link between inpatient departments and community providers is care transition. 

Hospital discharge planners sense this is a lot of change and the user population could benefit from a tool that communicates a comprehensive image of the over all care transition structure to facilitate a clearly understood foundation for a readmission free recovery.   There are things the patients need to know to productively forge an effective plan for a safe recovery after hospital discharge.

Wisconsin's PATH ALONG model has published a copyrighted concept designed to inform the patient population of the most pragmatic aspect of each care transition.  This lists the community providers the inpatient department is actually handing the continued care off to.  The comprehensive over view  includes the critical task inherent in each care transition to improve the quality of the recovery process.

Wisconsin health planners have made the PATH ALONG model available for free in an App that allows hospital staff and the patient population fast access to needed information.
