Résumé : | Care coordination programs are important in caring for medically complex pediatric patients, particularly for children with special health care needs. This study is a retrospective financial analysis of a hospital-based care coordination program involving one procedural subgroup of children with special health care needs: those receiving pediatric tracheostomy. Hospital records were reviewed for patients who received a tracheostomy at a large Midwestern U.S. hospital from 1999 through 2015. The population was divided into two subgroups: patients who received a tracheostomy before the development of a care coordination program and patients who received a tracheostomy after enrollment in the care coordination program. Patient records were reviewed for length of stay, readmissions related to respiratory and tracheostomy management, and total hospital charges. Enrollment in a care coordination program for the pediatric tracheostomy patient resulted in a decrease in mean length of stay and reduced hospital charges and a slight increase in readmissions. Further analysis using larger sample sizes and multiple centers is necessary to determine whether such outcomes are the direct result of enrollment in a care coordination program. |
