Colorado's Reducing Readmissions and Safe Transitions Collaborative
Webinar: Tuesday, October 15th, 12:00-1:00 MT
Hosted by the Colorado Hospital Association
Join Healthy Transitions Colorado's Webinar October 15th to learn about Colorado Hospital Association and UnitedHealthcare's Reducing Readmissions and Safe Transitions Collaborative.
In year one of this two-year initiative, the program has seen double-digit decreases in hospital readmissions and savings of nearly $3 million. With goals of improving inpatient and outpatient safety, increasing patient preparedness for self-care, and reducing avoidable readmissions through enhanced patient-provider relationships, the initiative consists of two phases geared towards reengineering the hospital discharge process. Phase One utilizes Boston University School of Medicine's Project RED (Re-Engineered Discharge) as its foundation to improve the discharge process within the inpatient setting. Phase Two focuses on improving care transitions from hospital to the post-acute care setting by building partnerships with medical homes, long-term care facilities, nursing facilities and other transition organizations in the community.
