In 2018, there were a total of 3.8 million adult hospital readmissions within 30 days of discharge, with an average readmission rate of 14 percent and an average readmission cost of $15,200 per member. To combat growing costs, payers across the industry are adding hospital readmission quality measures to their reimbursement programs. Coordinating with home-based care providers can help reduce readmission rates by identifying the causes of those readmissions, optimizing transitional care, and improving patient engagement. Understanding why a patient returns to the hospital after discharge is key to preventing readmissions and solving many challenges of follow-up care.
