If you consult us within 3 days of hospitalization, across a variety of different diagnoses (endocarditis, bacteremia, meningitis, TB, osteomyelitis, transplant infections etc) patients are less likely to be readmitted and will have lower total healthcare spending.
Better care. Simple as that.
I am off to New York City tomorrow to spend a few days as a visiting professor at
Montefiore Health System and Albert Einstein College of
Medicine.
Stay tuned.
