A telephone-based surgical transitional care program with improved patient satisfaction scores and fiscal neutrality.

Abstract：

BACKGROUND:Limited data exist regarding the downstream effects of surgical transitional care programs. We explored the impact of such programs on patient satisfaction and fiscal metrics. METHODS:A telephone-based surgical transitional care program enrolled patients undergoing complex abdominal surgery between 2015 to 2017. A matched cohort undergoing similar procedures between 2010 to 2015 were used as controls. Press Ganey scores were used to reflect patient satisfaction. Hospital costs, reimbursements, and margins were analyzed for index hospitalizations and readmissions within 90 days of surgery. RESULTS:There were 607 patients in the control group and 608 in the transitional care program; survey response rates were 37% and 35%, respectively. Transitional care patients rated their understanding of personal responsibilities in post-discharge care higher than controls (59% vs 69%, P = .02). Transitional care patients felt they received better educational materials about their condition or treatment (55% vs 68%, P < .01) and rated their global hospital experience higher (46% vs 57%, P = .02). The aggregate (index plus readmission) cost was greater for the transitional care ($22,814 vs $25,827, P < .01), but there was no difference in aggregate margin ($7,027 vs $4,698, P = .25). Multivariable adjustment yielded similar results for the aggregate cost (ref vs $2,232, P = .03) and margin (ref vs $1,299, P = .23). CONCLUSION:The use of this dedicated abdominal surgery transitional care program is associated with improved Press Ganey patient education and global rating scores. The cost to support this program did not adversely affect the hospital margin when considering all factors. These data support broader investment in patient centered initiatives that may significantly enhance patient experience.
