The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between the ACA insurance coverage provisions and
hospital utilization rates, cost, and patient illness severity.
They also incentivize efficient care, for example, by rewarding hospitals that decrease unnecessary
hospital utilization and readmissions.
The 'aa' revenue defensibility reflects the district's significant taxing margin available to support operations and enhances its solid market share, manageable payor mix and sensitivity of
hospital utilization to oil prices.
The main objective of this project is to reclaim more than 100000 square feet area of the basement for
hospital utilization, as previously basement was sort of a junk yard/storage.
The researchers created a practical tool to categorize patients into high (greater than five percent), intermediate (one to five percent) or low (less than 1 percent) annual risk of hypoglycemia-related emergency department or
hospital utilization.
These projects aim to increase access to needed services and to decrease potentially avoidable
hospital utilization. UM Shore Regional Health has agreed to provide a 2:1 financial match, as well as to demonstrate sustainability of the project.
Hospital utilization increased by an average of 60 percent when individuals switched into traditional FFS Medicare.
The Panel's proposal on state
hospital utilization noted that, after reform legislation in 2014 made the state psychiatric hospitals the guaranteed placement of "last resort" (for individuals in custody under ECOs who meet TDO criteria), the census at those hospitals dramatically increased, and remains above 95%, with some facilities exceeding 100%--well above levels where patient and staff safety start to decline.
In our postimplementation period, higher rates of timely contact by the TOCC was inversely correlated with the ED and
hospital utilization rates, as evaluated by a Pearson correlation.
This gives them the unique opportunity to track individual-level
hospital utilization for those in MA and those switching between MA and traditional Medicare.
