Summary:
«Here’s something far fewer people know: 20 percent of these surgery patients are readmitted to the hospital within just 30 days of initial discharge. Readmission not only frustrates patients, doctors, and hospitals; it also costs the industry billions of dollars every year. If we spend so much time and money on in-hospital patient care, why aren’t we putting the same level of care into a patient’s recovery once they go home to improve the lousy 20 percent readmission rate? Fortunately, high readmission rates are a problem that IoT and connected devices have the potential to help solve.»
