Laguna co-authored a paper examining transitions to different sites of care in the 12 months following discharge and found that of the 16% of patients that have an admission, 41% experience a readmission within a year. Learn why readmissions are particularly prevalent among some populations and how they increase Medicare costs. Laguna's contextual care management helps prevent unnecessary readmissions, lowering costs for Medicare and improving outcomes for patients in at-risk populations.
