nameReadmission to the same hospital within 30 days of surgical discharge Cancer
descriptionRecords a readmission to the same hospital within 30 days of discharge following hospitalization for surgical resection of the primary site for the same illness. This data item provides information related to the quality-of-care. A patient may have a readmission related to the primary diagnosis on discharge if the length of stay was too short, and then needed to return due to problems or complications. A patient may also need to be readmitted if discharge planning and/or follow-up instructions were ineffective. It is important to distinguish a planned from an unplanned readmission, since a planned readmission is not an indicator of quality of care problems...
