Heart Attack (AMI) - Readmission Ratio - 2013 to 2016
Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program
• In October 2012, CMS began reducing Medicare payments for
Inpatient Prospective Payment System hospitals with excess
readmissions.
• Excess readmissions are measured by a ratio, by dividing a hospital’s
number of “predicted” 30-day readmissions for heart attack, heart
failure, pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hip/knee
replacement, and coronary artery bypass graft surgery by the number
that would be “expected,” based on an average hospital with similar
patients.
• A ratio greater than 1.0000 indicates excess readmissions.
