Project
Grant Activity:
Post-surgery care fragmentation: impacts and implications
Purpose:

We will use linked hospital admission, Medicare and mortality data for more than 4.5 million Australian patients who had common surgical procedures to find out whether outcomes are worse for patients who are readmitted to a different hospital from where their surgery was done. Our findings will have important policy implications, identifying potential adverse impacts of centralisation of surgical services and of incentives to use public rather than private hospitals.
