Strategies That Reduce 90‐Day Readmissions and Inpatient Costs After Liver Transplantation
Joseph H. Zeidan, David M. Levi, Ruth Pierce, Mark W. Russo – 25 April 2018 – Liver transplantation (LT) is hospital‐resource intensive and associated with high rates of readmission. We have previously shown a reduction in 30‐day readmission rates by implementing a specifically designed protocol to increase access to outpatient care. The aim of this work is to determine if the strategies that reduce 30‐day readmission after LT were effective in also reducing 90‐day readmission rates and costs.
