Management of patient handoffs is a key factor in the delivery of value-based care. Poorly managed care transitions drive avoidable readmissions, ER use, medication errors and healthcare spend.

2015 Healthcare Benchmarks: Care Transitions Management, HIN's fourth annual analysis of these cross-continuum initiatives, examines programs, models, protocols and results associated with movement of patients from one care site to another, including the impact of care transitions management on quality metrics and the delivery of value-based care.

With a special focus on the patient discharge process and follow-up, this 50-page report is based on responses from more than 100 healthcare companies to HIN's fourth e-survey on Managing Care Transitions conducted in February 2015.
