Abstract:
The rising cost of unplanned hospital readmissions has sparked calls for identifying medical system failures, best practices, and interventions in order to reduce the incidence of avoidable readmission. Readmissions currently account for 18% of total hospital admissions among Medicare patients in the United States. Distinguishing avoidable from unavoidable readmissions is a complex problem, but tackling it can shed light on readmission determinants and contributing factors. The objective of this thesis is to gain knowledge about the role that dispensed drugs, medical procedures, and diagnostic

Abstract:
It has consistently been documented in many countries and sectors that there are difficulties in implementing public policy effectively. A priori, the Australian health care system is no exception to this general proposition. While governments issue directives with particular goals in mind these goals are not always met, because of the modifications, interpretations or lack of uptake by targeted populations. However it is not clear the extent to which these difficulties occur in the public hospital sector, and we lack clear empirical data on this phenomenon. This thesis investigates the effect

Abstract:
Abstract A study is made of the volume of hospital treatment provided for cases of pneumonia in Finland from 1972 to 1993, employing as a source the National Hospital Discharge Register. The results are used to predict changes in the utilization of hospital resources in this respect up to the year 2020. A total of 452 474 treatment periods and 5 935 615 hospitalization days attributable to pneumonia were recorded for the total population over the given period, of which just under 20% applied to children aged under 15 years, over 30% to persons of working age, 15-64 years, and over 50%

Abstract:
A descriptive quantitative study was conducted to determine what factors nurses considered when discharge planning, and how these factors compared with factors identified in the literature as being effective in planning for discharge. This study was undertaken because with the intended Prospective Payment System (PPS) of funding to hospitals, it is essential that Western Australian Clinical Registered Nurses are able to prepare patients for discharge effectively to prevent the financial burden of cost outliers and re-admissions.

Abstract:
This thesis aimed to explore systematic health service problems that are related to frequent readmission of persons suffering from severe mental illnesses to Valkenberg Hospital. Reduction of acute and chronic beds in the Associated Psychiatric Hospitals, Western Cape over the past decade has led to increasing pressure for beds and rapid inpatient turnover, many of these inpatients being &quot<br>revolving door&quot<br>patients.

Abstract:
The purpose of this descriptive study was to describe the evaluation of a 'Patient Management Program'. This managed care type of program combined a Pre-Admission Clinic and an Early Discharge Program. It was established as a twelve month pilot program at a major Western Australian public teaching hospital in January 1995. It aimed to provide a more efficient health service by replacing part of elective surgical patients' inpatient care with outpatient services. The first component of the Program was the Pre-Admission Clinic, which allowed patients to undergo pre-operative assessment and testi
