Background: Complex non-pharmacologic interventions containing multiple, or bundled, components can successfully prevent and treat hospital-acquired delirium in older adults. However consistent implementation, and the measurement of compliance, of these bundled interventions can be challenging to sustain in hospital settings especially in presence of COVID-19. Developing workflows with a smaller sub-set of components that are feasible […]

Background: Patients experiencing unsheltered homelessness are at extreme risk for worse outcomes, including increased mortality 10 times that of the general population and an average life expectancy of 53 (over 20 yrs less than general population). Transitions of care pose unique difficulties for this vulnerable population, with numerous barriers to ongoing care and resulting readmission […]

Background: High health care costs and poor outcomes are associated with high hospitalization rates and are concentrated in a small fraction of the population. Fragmented patient care and socioeconomic disadvantage may further increase hospitalization rates. To defragment medical care for a socioeconomically diverse population of Medicare patients at increased risk of hospitalization, the University of […]

Background: Patients spend about 95% of their hospitalization in bed, increasing the risk of functional decline associated with adverse events and readmissions. Some hospitals track patients’ functional mobility trends using Activity Measure for Post-Acute Care 6-Clicks Inpatient Short Form (AM-PAC). We aim to understand the associations between functional mobility loss from hospital admission to discharge, […]

Background: For patients at increased risk of hospitalization, reducing hospitalization is often a key objective and can have important effects on health care costs. The Comprehensive Care Physician (CCP) model was developed originally at the University of Chicago to reintegrate inpatient and outpatient care under the same physician for patients at high risk of hospitalization […]

Background: Minority and low-income populations are more likely to be hospitalized and/or re-hospitalized for acute asthma, a key indicator of poorly controlled disease. While hospitals have attempted to improve asthma care by implementing individual-level care interventions, inequities persist during inpatient stays and in intervention delivery. Little is known about the impact of “bundled” systems-level interventions […]

Background: Hospital readmissions within 30 days of discharge have gained national attention and account for more than $17 billion in avoidable U.S. Medicare expenditures each year. (1) In 2011 alone, there were approximately 3.3 million adult 30-day all-cause hospital readmissions, costing the US $41.3 billion.(2) As such, efforts have been made to create algorithms to […]

SHM Converge 2023
Background: The social determinants of health (SDOH) are widely recognized as having an important impact on health and mortality with up to 80% of health outcomes shaped by SDOH domains ( the conditions in which people are born, grow, work, live, and age). There is strong evidence that addressing unmet social needs can lower healthcare […]
