Discharge After Vestibular Schwannoma Surgery
Patients, payers, and hospitals need rigorous, data-driven measures to help optimize decision-making. As consumers of health care, patients and families may select options that maximize safety, outcomes, convenience, cost, timeliness, efficacy, and equity. Payers use value equations that optimize costs while maximizing outcomes. Hospitals must minimize utilization metrics, including length of stay and 30-day readmission rates, to avoid financial penalty. In this issue of JAMA Otolaryngology –Head& Neck Surgery, Dixon et al have managed to provide all 3 groups with key information about excess hospital time after vest...
