In Episode 3, Kathy Sucich talks to Amy Boutwell, MD, MPP, about the topic of readmissions, which is when patients come back to the hospital within 30 days of a previous stay. As hospitals and health systems focus on the Quadruple Aim – improving patient care, lowering costs, and improving both the patient and physician experience – reducing readmissions is one area that could have a significant positive impact.
