Abstract:
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) collects data on hospital 30-day Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) readmission rates to reduce preventable readmissions and prevent wasteful use of Medicare dollars. Hospitals have begun exploring different strategies to reduce their COPD-related 30-day readmissions. One key strategy has been the use of primary care providers (PCPs). This study examined the association between the percentage of PCPs at the hospital and Medicare COPD 30-day readmissions from 2014 to 2019. Results demonstrate a slight positive association between

Abstract:
Purpose Hospitals throughout the USA are facing increasing patient demand and employee shortages. This capacity issue has led to understaffing in some hospital areas. The purpose of this paper is to examine the understaffing in hospital-unit respiratory care and the impact to error rates, specifically missed treatments rates. The moderating effects of teamwork and standardized, integrated information systems are also considered.

Abstract:
ObjectiveTo examine whether increases in physician volume in primary healthcare facilities are associated with reduced utilisation of hospital outpatient and inpatient services after China facilitated the establishment of the hierarchical medical system.DesignWe used a two-way fixed-effects regression to examine the association between the annual number of physicians in primary healthcare facilities and that of patient visits per physician, inpatient admissions and total expenses per outpatient visit in public hospitals during 2010–2014 and 2015–2019.

Abstract:
The transitional period between hospital discharge and primary care follow-up is a vulnerable time for patients that can result in adverse health outcomes and preventable hospital readmissions. This is especially true for patients of safety-net hospitals (SNHs) who often struggle to secure primary care access when leaving the hospital due to social, economic and cultural barriers. In this study, we describe a resident-led postdischarge clinic that serves patients discharged from NYU Langone Hospital—Brooklyn, an urban safety-net academic hospital. In our multivariable analysis, there was no st

Aims and background We evaluated some standardized criteria for classifying incident cases of liver cancer into either primary liver cancer (PLC) or unspecified liver cancer (ULC) on the basis of the diagnostic examinations performed and their results. Methods A pilot hospital-based study (98 cases) was carried out in Verona, northern Italy, with the main aim of assessing the feasibility of the method. The same procedures were subsequently applied in a population-based study (349 cases) in Brescia, northern Italy. Results Diagnosis was made on histologic data in 38.7% and 41.8% of the hospital

Abstract:
ImportanceConsolidation of physician practices by hospitals and private equity (PE) firms has increased rapidly. This trend is of particular importance within primary care. Despite its significance, there is no systematic evidence on the emerging trends in ownership affiliation of primary care physicians (PCPs) and its association with prices paid for physician services.ObjectiveTo describe trends in hospital affiliation and PE affiliation in primary care and examine variation in negotiated prices paid by commercial insurers to hospital-affiliated, PE-affiliated, and independent PCPs.Design, S

ABSTRACT CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Hospitalizations due to primary care-sensitive conditions constitute an important indicator for monitoring the quality of primary healthcare. This study aimed to describe hospitalizations due to primary care-sensitive conditions found among children under five years of age (according to their age and sex), in two cities in Paraíba, Brazil. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional study carried out in the municipalities of Cabedelo and Bayeux, in Paraíba, Brazil. METHODS: Data were collected from four public pediatric hospitals in Paraíba that receive children from th

Abstract:
Purpose. The purpose of the research is two-fold: first to examine whether the hospital size impacts the patient perception of service quality, and second to identify the service dimensions from the patient perception that vary by hospital size. Study design. The study has been conducted by collecting primary data from the patients who visited these hospitals using SERVPERF with an analysis of the variancemethod. The primary data was collected from 150 patients of five different hospital sizes. Findings. The findings reveal that from the patient’s perception, the hospital size exerts a signifi

Abstract:
Background and purpose: In-hospital stroke-onset assessment and management present numerous challenges, especially in community hospitals. Comprehensive analysis of key stroke care metrics in community-based primary stroke centers is under-studied. Methods: Medical records were reviewed for patients admitted to a community hospital for non-cerebrovascular indications and for whom a stroke alert was activated between 2013 and 2019. Demographic, clinical, radiologic and laboratory information were collected for each incident stroke. Descriptive statistical analysis was employed. When applicable,
