Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

2.4K
Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

The planning phase of the nursing process helps nurses set priorities, outline patient-centered goals and expected outcomes, and tailor nursing interventions to align with the aligned care plan. Through the planning phase, the nurse applies critical thinking skills to align and develop interventions according to the patient's needs. It provides continuity of care allowing patients to receive the maximum benefit from treatment. It serves as a pilot plan for allocating individual staff to a...

Area of Science:

  • Health Services Research
  • Public Health
  • Health Economics

Background:

  • Emergency department (ED) visits are often high-cost and may indicate fragmented care, particularly for vulnerable populations like those in Medicaid accountable care organizations.
  • Patient navigation programs aim to improve care coordination, primary care engagement, and address health-related social needs.
  • The effectiveness of ED-based patient navigation for improving healthcare utilization and reducing costs requires further investigation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the impact of an emergency department (ED) patient navigation program on healthcare utilization and costs.
  • To assess the program's effect on primary care engagement, care coordination, and health-related social needs.
  • To compare outcomes for patients receiving ED navigation versus matched controls within a Medicaid accountable care organization.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of healthcare utilization and costs within 30 days post-index ED visit.
  • Comparison of patients receiving ED navigation with matched controls who did not receive navigator interaction.
  • Outcomes analyzed using logistic regression, focusing on all-cause return ED visits, hospital admissions, and completed primary care appointments.

Main Results:

  • ED navigation was associated with a 52% increase in completed follow-up primary care appointments (OR, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.29-1.77).
  • For patients with no prior ED visits in 6 months, ED navigation decreased 30-day repeat ED visits by 32% (OR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.52-0.90).
  • No significant impact on return ED visits was observed for patients with high baseline ED utilization.

Conclusions:

  • High-intensity, short-term patient navigation initiated in the ED can effectively enhance primary care connections.
  • The program demonstrates potential for reducing ED revisits among specific patient groups with low baseline utilization.
  • ED patient navigation offers a viable strategy for improving care coordination and outcomes within accountable care organizations.
