Core Tip |
This study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of an intervention that bundled Acute Hospital-Community Hospital (AH-CH) care. The AH-CH care bundle intervention effectively reduced AH length of stay (LOS) and costs for elderly patients aged 75 and above undergoing elective orthopedic surgery in Singapore General Hospital. Our findings indicate that systematically transitioning care between AH and CH using this care bundle reduces AH LOS and achieves cost savings. This intervention increases public hospital bed capacity and reduces inpatient hospitalization costs. |
