1 Transitional Care: Bridging the Gaps of a Fragmented Health System Amy J H Kind, MD, PhD Assistant Professor, Division of Geriatrics University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health Madison VA GRECC
2 Ms. B s Story 80yo nursing home patient hospitalized for pneumonia. Found to have trouble swallowing -- placed on special diet. Discharged back to nursing home. Hospital discharge communication did not include any dietary information, so Ms. B was placed on a regular diet. Ms. B rehospitalized 5 days later after choking, developing pneumonia.
3 30 Day Rehospitalizations: A Major Health System Problem Affect 1 in 5 hospitalized Medicare patients Account for over $17.4 billion annually Major target in health reform * Jencks et al, NEJM, :
4 Major Points Health system fragmentation contributes to rehospitalizations Education-based transitional care services decrease rehospitalizations in those going home Effective communication lies at the core of safe transitions, especially those to nursing homes
5 Major Points Health system fragmentation contributes to rehospitalizations Education-based transitional care services decrease rehospitalizations in those going home Effective communication lies at the core of safe transitions, especially those to nursing homes
6 The Problem: Health System Fragmentation Hospital Primary Care Nursing Home
7 Contributors to Health System Fragmentation Organization of the health system into distinct, independent institutions ( silos ) Lack of formal relationships/information systems between care settings Communication between settings is often poor Nursing home patients move frequently between care settings Transitional care given little emphasis in traditional clinical training programs * Coleman. JAGS. 2003;51: ; Ma et. Al. J Am Geriatr Soc 2002; 49(4):S35.
8 Difficult for Patients to Overcome Health System Fragmentation Patients are often not prepared for next setting Little patient empowerment in hospital Lack of patient education * Coleman. JAGS. 2003;51:
9 Medication Discrepancy within 72 Hours of Hospital Discharge 18 Medications/patient, average (range 0-46) 2 Discrepancies/patient, average (range 0-9) * Kind, AGS Abstract, 2012.
10 Care Transitions Can Be Dangerous 41% of patients have laboratory tests pending at time hospital discharge; primary care providers are unaware of 61% of these Poor communication of care plans to primary care provider can lead to inappropriate, delayed care Over half of rehospitalized patients do not see their outpatient provider between the time of discharge and rehospitalization *Roy et.al, Ann Int Med, 2005; Moore et al, Arch Int Med, 2007.; Jencks, NEJM, 2009.

12 Major Points Health system fragmentation contributes to rehospitalizations Education-based transitional care services decrease rehospitalizations in those going home Effective communication lies at the core of safe transitions, especially those to nursing homes
13 Mr. A s Story 89yo hospitalized with allergic reaction to an antibiotic Original antibiotic stopped and discharged home on different antibiotic Rehospitalized after allergic reaction recurred Mr. A reported taking both antibiotics after discharge because staff told him to be sure to finish your antibiotics
14 Definition Transitional Care: A set of actions designed to ensure the coordination and continuity of health care as patients transfer between different locations or different levels of care in the same location * Coleman. JAGS. 2003
15 Transitional Care Services Combat System Fragmentation Health care staff bridge the hospital and home Post-hospital home visits to teach patients about their care and conditions Decrease rehospitalizations by 30% Not for nursing home patients * Naylor, JAMA, 1996; Coleman, Archives, 2005.
16 Ms. B s Story 80yo nursing home patient hospitalized for pneumonia. Rehospitalized after being placed on the wrong diet. Dementia Not a candidate for educational programs like transitional care services
17 Nursing Home Transitions: A System Solution Is Needed Nursing home patients can rarely advocate for themselves Often no family or caregiver to advocate for the patient during the transition Patient becomes completely reliant upon the system to get it right * Deutsch, Am J PMR, 2002; Hickey, Int J Geri Psych, 1997
18 Major Points Health system fragmentation contributes to rehospitalizations Education-based transitional care services decrease rehospitalizations in those going home Effective communication lies at the core of safe transitions, especially those to nursing homes
19 Hospital Discharge Summary Primary post-hospital communication tool Can dictate patient s care for up to 30 days Care plans for nursing home patients are copied directly from the discharge summary Medications Diet Activity Accreditation groups set minimal standards which most transitional care experts feel are inadequate Discharge summaries are often inadequate, slow to arrive at next setting of care * Kripalani, JAMA, 2007; Dimant, JAMDA, 2003
20 Inclusion of Care Plans in Hospital Discharge Summaries Pending studies Code status Prognosis/diagnosis communication to patient/family Therapy Orders Activity instructions Diet Instructions for follow-up Disposition Discharge medication list *Kind et al, JGIM, 2011
21 Nursing Home Nurses Want Better Quality Discharge Communication Focus groups of nursing home nurses: How do they transition care? Themes: Information/communication from hospital is virtually always inadequate, inaccurate or incomplete Hospital providers are difficult to contact for clarification Makes it difficult for nursing home staff to adequately plan for the patient s arrival Forces staff to take precious time away from patient care Leads to care delays, medication errors, rehospitalizations, staff/patient/family dissatisfaction all perpetuating a negative image of nursing homes * King, AGS Abstract, 2012.
22 Efforts to Improve Discharge Communication The promise of information technology Advent of accountable care organizations Medicare penalties for rehospitalizations
23 Overall Conclusions Health system fragmentation contributes to rehospitalizations Education-based transitional care services decrease rehospitalizations in those going home Effective communication lies at the core of safe transitions, especially those to nursing homes
24 Policy Implications: What Should You Do? Ask your constituents about their care transitions experiences/stories Encourage patients to always have an advocate (family member/caregiver) accompany them before, during and after a care transition Have ADRCs actively reach out to support, educate families/patients trying to navigate our fragmented health system, especially after hospital discharge
