This data is unique since the hospitals themselves don’t have this information (e.g. if you are admitted at St. Luke's Hospital and readmitted at Mercy Medical Center - Cedar Rapids , University of Iowa Hospital & Clinics , Jones Regional Medical Center , Covenant Medical Center & Virginia Gay Hospital , St. Luke's Hospital won’t have that information).
