Demystifying hospital charges for hospital readmissions in 2017 in the United States for psychosis (DRG = 885).
Health Marketing Quarterly 2021 November 31
Existing research on hospital charges is primarily focused on hospital admissions, but not on hospital readmissions. Our research fills this gap. We utilize the 2017 Hospital Readmissions database from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) to empirically study factors that impact hospital charges for hospital readmissions. We focus on psychosis (DRG = 885) which has 609,360 records in 2017 in the AHRQ database. We employ regression analyses using patient demographics, inpatient care variables, and hospital characteristics to explain variance in hospital charges. Results show that inpatient care (diagnoses, procedures, length of stay), hospital ownership, and younger patients result in higher hospital charges.
