Dexur analyzed Oct 2016 to Aug 2019 Medicare claims data and determined of the 90 Stent surgeries at UPMC Mercy, 15 were readmitted which was a readmission rate of 16.67%.

This data is unique since the hospitals themselves don’t have this information (e.g. if you are admitted at UPMC Mercy and readmitted at LifeCare Hospitals of Pittsburgh , UPMC Presbyterian Shadyside , UPMC Western Psychiatric Hospital , UPMC McKeesport & UPMC Passavant , UPMC Mercy won’t have that information).
Hospitals can use this data to better understand the full patient journey and provide better care. Dexur provides this data to hospitals through Dexur Pro.
