Meaningful Results One Example: Readmission Rates
• 79% of hospitals were penalized by Medicare
• All cause 30-day RR for HF range from 20% - 25%
• More than 25% of 30-day readmissions occur within the first five days post-discharge
• Almost 30% of post-discharged patients who are referred for HH care services do not receive HH
• If referred and receive HH = 7.3% less readmissions

“…Healthcare communities with higher performing nursing homes and higher performing home health agencies were more likely to have lower 30-day risk-standardized readmission rates.”
Home Health Care Manag Pract. Wang, et al, 2016, Nov; 28(4): 201–208.

Boniva Strategy 2011 LEVELS OF PATIENT INTERACTION
(1) TELL
One direction – imparting information. “Here is what you need to know.”
(3) ENGAGE
Connect with the patient at a personal level. “What is important to you? What will you commit to?”
(2) TEACH
Ask questions to involve the patient. “Let’s talk about ... What are your thoughts...?”

Clinical-Think vs Patient-Think
๏ “I don’t want to die!” ๏ “I just want to walk up the
stairs and not be out of breath.”
๏ “I need to stay healthy for the holidays”
๏ “I want to attend a family event in a month”
๏ “I need to get back to work”
Patients do not relate to clinical values; they relate to behaviors that matter to them. The
goal is to get the patient to verbalize those things that matter to them.
“I need to improve this patient’s...”

Tell vs. Ask-Engage Approach
Most patients do not respond to being told what to do; they relate to being ASKED based upon their
personal short-term needs and motivations.
• “Here’s what you need to do…”
• “Here’s why this is good for you”
• “Here’s more information that will help you”
• “You must do this to help with…”
Tell and Urge Ask and Engage • “Here is what has been
recommended for you ... what do you think?”
• “What would you like to be able to do or look forward to doing in the next few weeks?”
• “What do you think about making a commitment to a goal for this week? Here are a couple of choices...”
• “Who can help you with your goal and how can he or she help you?”
