Description

Denise T. Kruzikas (au). This Fact Book examines one critical area of health care quality: potentially preventable hospitalizations, or hospitalizations that may be preventable with high quality primary & preventive care. These hospitalizations may be avoided if clinicians effectively diagnose, treat, & educate patients, & if patients actively participate in their care & adopt healthy lifestyle behaviors. This Fact Book presents information on preventable hospitalizations for select & acute conditions, as well as for one birth outcome. It first addresses these conditions in a broad, national-level context, & then provides detailed statistics for each health condition. Charts & tables.
