Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to construct a prognostic model to identify risks of poor outcomes at one year following hospital discharge of patients treated in an ambulatory cate setting The study will incorporate pre-hospitalization characteristics hospitalization events comorbidity burden psychosocial measures and post-hospitalization care characteristics to predict re-hospitalization and mortality at one year
Detailed Description: This model will identify potentially modifiable variables in the post-hospitalization clinic setting that result in increased rates of hospital readmission and mortality Specifically it is hypothesized that longer time to first outpatient visit after hospitalization multiple providers poor follow-up with scheduled appointment and discrepancies between discharge and outpatient medication lists will be predictors of adverse outcomes Utilizing statistical modeling methods it will be possible to recognize at risk patients to identify modifiable risk factors and outpatient care characteristics and in the future to direct patient specific interventions to improve outcomes
