3 Background Surgical readmissions are a difficult problem Several studies using big data Health Literacy?
4 Hypothesis Patients with lower health literacy would be more likely to experience a 30 day readmission following surgery Health Literacy Readmission Rate
5 Methods Observational, Prospectively enrolled, Multi-instutional study 4 VA sites Birmingham Palo Alto Milwaukee Boston General, Vascular, Thoracic Surgery At least a 48 hour hospital stay, discharged alive Discharge Survey Measuring Health Literacy
6 Methods (1) In person interview (2) 30 day chart abstraction (3) 30 day follow up phone call 30 days Identify any VA or Outside Hospital Readmission
7 Defining Health Literacy Additive score for three 5-item Likert scale questions. (Range 0-12 points) How often do you have someone help you read hospital materials? How often do you have problems learning about a medical condition because of difficulty understanding written information? How confident are you filling out medical forms by yourself? Always +4 Always +4 Always +0 Often +3 Often +3 Often +1 Sometimes +2 Sometimes +2 Sometimes +2 Occasionally +1 Occasionally +1 Occasionally +3 Never +0 Never +0 Never +4 Chew, L., Bradley, K., & Boyko, E.

9 Study Population 736 inpatient surgeries enrolled at 4 study sites. 722 (98%) with complete health literacy information at discharge.

11 Health Literacy at Discharge 722 Patients 39.2% had a score of % (N=240) of patients had possibly inadequate health literacy Score of 4 or more

13 Readmission & Emergency Department (ED) Visits Overall within 30 days of discharge: 117 Patients 151 Patients 16.7% readmitted 20.5% presented to the ED
14 Hospital visits by HL Unplanned Readmission p=0.003 ED visit p=0.08
15 Length of Stay (LOS) & Mortality Overall within 30 days of discharge:? Days? Patients Average LOS % Mortality Rate
16 LOS by HL Index Hospitalization LOS p=? Readmission LOS p=?
17 Adjusted Model of Readmission Unadjusted Most Parsimonious* OR (95% CI) p-value OR (95% CI) p-value Adequate Ref. Ref Possibly Inadequate 1.83 ( ) ( ) 0.04 Every 1 Unit Increase 1.09 ( ) ( ) 0.08 * Adjusted for Charlson Comorbidity Index, Health Survey Physical Component Score and Mental Component Score at the time of discharge Patients with possibly inadequate health literacy at the time of hospital discharge are 53% more likely to be readmitted as compared to patients with adequate health literacy.
18 Limitations Several tools to measure HL Lack validated/consistent cut-offs Adequate HL vs. Marginal HL vs. Inadequate HL VA population, may not be generalizable
19 Implications/ Future Work Low Health Literacy is prevalent among VA surgery patients Low Health Literacy is associated with surgical readmissions Identifying these patients and developing interventions to educate and empower

21 Patient-Reported Health Literacy (HL) Scores Associated With Readmissions Following Surgery Low HL Prevalent among Surgical Population Readmission Rates higher with low HL Linear Relationship between HL and Surgical Readmissions 33% score >4 (on HL screening tool) 22% vs. 13% (percent of readmitted patients, Low HL vs Adequate HL) p=0.003 Low HL 53% more likely to be readmitted p=0.04 S.

22 Adjusted Model of Readmission 1.0 = No Difference For every 1 unit increase in Health Literacy Score, there is a 5.5% increase in odds of readmission.
