Problem: A major KPI that the healthcare organization I work for focuses on is length of stay. Since inpatient hospital stays are reimbursed by DRGs, it is a key focus to have a decreased length of stay and minimal avoidable days. What this means, is that each day should be accounted for, and each missed opportunity to have the patient discharged would be considered an avoidable day. What we do to be on top of this, is have a multidisciplinary meeting weekly to discuss any patients on the floor greater than 7 days, and the barriers they are facing to being discharged. A group of doctors, nurses, case managers, social workers, and myself, who works to help with insurance and financial barriers, are included in this meeting, where we troubleshoot different solutions to help get the patient discharged. In addition, we meet weekly to discuss patients inhouse 30+ days. Currently we are the facility within our organization with the shortest length of stay, so we must be doing something right!
