Study type | Interventional |
The objective of this study is to design and implement a set of procedures (the intervention) to improve patients' experiences when they are discharged home from the hospital. Second, this study aims to look at how the intervention affects problems that are known to occur after discharge, including medication issues, worsening medical problems, or readmission to the hospital. The investigators will study how well patients recover the ability to do the things they could before they were admitted to the hospital and their opinions of the discharge process. Lastly, this study will look to understand the best way to implement the intervention into different hospitals and practices, and which types of patients benefit from it most.

Eligibility |
Inclusion Criteria: Potential subjects will be adult patients admitted to medical and surgical services at BWH and MGH, likely to be discharged back to the community, and whose PCP belongs to one of the Partners Community Healthcare, Inc. (PCHI) primary care practices that has met "Primed" criteria for being a PCMH, admits at least 2 patients to BWH or MGH, and has agreed to participate. Primed criteria are a standard set of requirements that cover 6 essential building blocks of PCMH practices: electronic health record, patient portal, team-based care, practice redesign, care management, and identification of high-risk patients. We estimate that of the approximately 300 PCHI adult primary care practices, 150 of them will meet PCMH criteria during the study and that 20 of them will qualify and be willing to participate in the study. We estimate that 12,000 such patients will be admitted to BWH and MGH over the 18-month study period, of which we will enroll 1700 patients. These patients are broadly representative of hospitalized patients and include several vulnerable populations, including the elderly (33% 65 or older), patients with multiple chronic conditions (47% with Elixhauser comorbidity score 5 or more), and racial and ethnic minorities (14% African American, 13% Latino). Exclusion Criteria: 1. Likely discharge to a location other than home (or to a caregiver's home) 2. Police custody 3. No telephone or homeless 4. Previous enrolment in the study 5.

Secondary | Proportion of Participants With New or Worsening Signs/Symptoms Within 30 Days of Discharge | New or worsening signs or symptoms, i.e. unpleasant symptoms, loss of function, abnormal lab results, and/or additional medical care within 30 days after discharge. | 30 days after discharge | |

Secondary | Change in Functional Status on the Modified Medical Outcomes Survey Short Form-12 (SF-12v2) From One Month Prior to Admission to 30 Days After Discharge. | During the inpatient enrollment period, patients will complete a modified Medical Outcomes Survey Short Form-12 (SF-12v2). The SF-12v2 measures a patient's functional status and health-related quality of life one month prior to admission. 30 days after discharge, SF12 questions will be repeated so that functional status and health-related quality of life can be compared to prior to admission. This measure is a 12-item measure. Each item 5 possible responses with a value from 1 to 5 (with higher scores indicating worse outcomes). A summary score is computed by summing the score on each item. Therefore, the range of summary scores for the SF-12v2 is a minimum of 12 and a maximum of 60. |

Secondary | Proportion of Participants With Positive Responses Regarding Patient Engagement and Opinions of the Discharge Process | During the 30 day post-discharge follow-up phone call we asked patients about their participation in, understanding of, and ability to carry out the post-discharge plan. These questions include questions from the Interpersonal Processes of Care survey and several additional questions from the HOMERUN study of readmitted patients. In the table below, we have abbreviated each survey question since the number of characters is limited in this field in the table. We have pasted below the full survey question. When you were getting ready to leave the hospital one month ago, how often did your care team use medical terminology that you did not understand? How often did you feel confused about what was going on with your medical care because they did not explain things well? How often did they give you enough time to say what you thought was important regarding your medical care? How often did they listen carefully to what you had to say? How often did you feel p |

Secondary | Post-Discharge Health Care Utilization | We will measure emergency department visits and hospital readmissions within 30 days of discharge using a combination of administrative data for all Partners hospitals plus patient report for all utilization outside the Partners system. | 30 days after discharge |
