Abstract

BACKGROUND: The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services currently incentivizes hospitals to reduce postdischarge adverse events such as unplanned hospital readmissions for patients who underwent total joint arthroplasty (TJA). This study aimed to predict 90-day TJA readmissions from our comprehensive electronic health record data and routinely collected patient-reported outcome measures.
