Analyzing The Effectiviness Of A Prescription Drug Monitoring Program Targeting At-Risk Opioid Abuse Patients, Treadway Childs Aug 2017

Analyzing The Effectiviness Of A Prescription Drug Monitoring Program Targeting At-Risk Opioid Abuse Patients, Treadway Childs

Public Administration ETDs

The effectiveness of a prescription drug monitoring program in coordination with a prescription opioid recidivism program was examined at a semi-rural community hospital. Patients were identified by a multi-disciplinary committee to be at-risk for opioid misuse or abuse, and were denied prescription opioids. Patients were considered eligible for the program if they had over 12 emergency department visits in the previous 12 months, or 6 visits in the previous 6 months, depending on how long the hospital had records on a patient.

The Evaluation Of The Effects Of The Use Of The Palliative Care Diagnosis Code On Risk-Adjusted Mortality And Hospital Ranking In Patients With Severe Sepsis, Renee D. Donohoe Jul 2017

The Evaluation Of The Effects Of The Use Of The Palliative Care Diagnosis Code On Risk-Adjusted Mortality And Hospital Ranking In Patients With Severe Sepsis, Renee D. Donohoe

Pharmaceutical Sciences ETDs

Background: The International Classification of Diseases, Ninth-Revision-Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) for palliative care (V66.7) has been shown to affect risk-adjusted mortality rates. This code can increase the risk of mortality when included in billing data and incorporated into risk-adjustment models (1).

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to examine variations in coding between high-performing (low mortality indices (Observed/Expected)) and low-performing (high mortality indices) hospitals by examining the use of the ICD-9-CM code for palliative care; coding of severe sepsis; and assignment of higher-weighted Medicare-Severity Diagnosis Related Group (MS-DRG) codes.

Methods: Data were obtained from the Vizient™ Clinical Database/Resource Manager (CBD/RM) …
