LIVINRITE HOME HEALTH SERVICESREADMISSION REDUCTION PROGRAM

EXCELLENCE IN TRANSITIONSCOLIN JC ELLIOT, BA, BSC, PTCHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER

LivinRite home health agency and hospitals working closely to reduce the hospital’s risk of patient re-admissions.

Two of the most commons reasons for hospital re-admissions are medication

LivinRite Home Health Program Goals

perrors and failure to see a physician.

Both could be reduced if patients were supervised through home care visits after discharge.

11/5/2013

60% of re-admissions are in the first 7 days

By revamping discharge policies in collaboration with the “Rite” HH company, hospitals can more fully utilize collaborative community relationships

Develop ‘grass root’ partnerships with SNFs , ALFs and Hospice agencies within the local area(s)

LivinRite created an “ER on wheels” concept

ACH PROGRESS?Introduced in 2011, a national quality improvement

initiative to reduce unnecessary readmissions for cardiovascular patients.

The goal was to reduce re-admission rates among patients discharged with heart failure or acute myocardial infarction by 20% by Dec 2012. LivinRite Achieved 21%. This has been maintained.

• Almost one‐fifth of the Medicare beneficiaries who h d b di h d f t f ilithad been discharged from an acute care facility were rehospitalized within 30 days, and 34.0% were rehospitalized within 90 days (Jencks, Williams, and Coleman, 2009)

• Nearly 90% of readmissions are unplanned and potentially preventable which translates into $17potentially preventable, which translates into $17 billion or nearly 20% of Medicare’s hospital payments (Hernandez et al., 2010)
