Abstract

Date Presented 4/19/2018

This poster describes an inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) study examining the relationship between facility-level factors and 30-day unplanned readmission rates among Medicare beneficiaries. Identifying factors related to care process at the organization and region levels could potentially improve the quality of IRF care.
