The Effects of a Comprehensive Care Management Program on Readmission Rates After Acute Exacerbation of COPD at a Community-Based Academic Hospital

Abstract

<0.01, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.08-12.45). A CCMP can reduce readmissions through attention to social variables, optimization of in-hospital care, improved coordination of pre- and post-discharge, a system to better identify problems after discharge, and an office setup that accommodates same-day visits.
