Gain Referrals by Reducing Readmissions | HomeCare Magazine


"Effective this year, Section 3025 of the Affordable Care Act penalizes hospitals for COPD readmissions. During the next three years, hospitals will be charged a 3 percent penalty on all Medicare reimbursements for patients readmitted within 30 days of discharge.

The reality of an industry average 25 percent readmission rate creates a captive audience for real discussions on better therapy. These meaningful conversations can save hospitals massive amounts of money and generate more patient referrals. Set yourself apart with results-driven programs that can protect hospitals from these new financial risks."
