Objective: To describe inpatient length of stay patterns, identify key drivers related to prolonged length of stay, and evaluate the relationship between length of stay and readmission in pediatric neurology Methods: This was a retrospective review of patients <19 years old admitted with a principal neurologic diagnosis to our hospital between January 2017 and July 2019. Scheduled admissions and hospital admissions lasting >30 days were excluded from analysis. Length of stay was obtained in addition to demographic characteristics, principal discharge diagnosis, multispecialty care, use of multiple antiseizure medications, inpatient hospital costs (ie, claims paid), and pediatric intensive care unit (ICU) admission for unplanned admissions and 7- and 30-day readmissions. Results: There were a total of 1579 unplanned admissions. The most common reasons for admission were seizure (n = 942), headache (n = 161), other neurologic diagnosis (n = 121), and psychiatric disorders/functional neurologic disorder (n = 60). Children admitted to the hospital for a neurologic condition have an average length of stay of 2.8±5.0 days for unplanned admissions, 4.5±7.4 days for 7-day readmissions, and 5.2±7.5 days for 30-day readmissions. Average inpatient hospital costs were $44 075±56 976 for unplanned admissions, $60 361±71 427 for 7-day readmissions, and $55 434±56 442 for 30-day readmissions. Prolonged length of stay and increased hospital costs were associated with pediatric ICU admission, multispecialty care, 7- and 30-day readmission, multiple antiseizure medications, and psychiatric disorders / functional neurologic disorders. Conclusions: Pediatric ICU admission, multispecialty care, readmission, multiple antiseizure medications, and psychiatric disorder / functional neurologic disorder prolong length of stay and increase hospital costs.

The proportion of patients over the age of 90 years continues to grow, and the anticipated demand for total joint arthroplasty (TJA) in this population is expected to rise concomitantly. As the country shifts to alternative reimbursement models, data regarding hospital expenses is needed for accurate risk-adjusted stratification. The aim of this study was to compare total in-hospital costs following primary TJA in octogenarians and nonagenarians, and to determine the primary drivers of cost. This was a retrospective analysis from a single institution in the U.S. We used time-drive activity-based costing (TDABC) to capture granular total hospital costs for each patient. 889 TJA’s were included in the study, with 841 octogenarians and 48 nonagenarians. Nonagenarians were more likely to undergo total hip arthroplasty (THA) (70.8% vs. 42.4%; p < 0.0001), had higher ASA classification (2.6 vs. 2.4; p = 0.049), and were more often privately insured (35.4% vs. 27.8%; p = 0.0001) as compared to octogenarians. Nonagenarians were more often discharged to skilled nursing facilities (56.2% vs. 37.5%; p = 0.0011), experienced longer operating room (OR) time (142 vs. 133; p = 0.0201) and length of stay (3.7 vs. 3.1; p = 0.0003), and had higher implant and total in-hospital costs (p < 0.0001 and 0.0001). Multivariate linear regression showed implant cost (0.700; p < 0.0001), length of stay (0.546; p < 0.0001), and OR time (0.288; p < 0.0001) to be the strongest associations with overall costs. Primary TJA for nonagenarians was more expensive than octogenarians. Targeting implant costs, length of stay, and OR time can reduce costs for nonagenarians in order to provide cost-effective value-based care.

This study aims to determine the effect of using clinical pathways to control total actual hospital costs for BPJS patients who undergo a cesarean section. The method used in this research is action research. The results showed that the average actual hospital costs were significantly higher after the application of CP with p = 0.019. The average length of stay, service costs, and hospital costs were significantly lower in the entire CP form group with p = 0.012, p = 0.013, and p = 0.012. In conclusion, this study shows that the application of clinical pathways can reduce the length of hospitalization and actual hospital costs for cesarean section patients and indicates that clinical pathways can make services more efficient.   Keywords: Hospital Costs, Clinical Pathway, Caesarean Section

Objetivo: descrever as internações, óbitos e custos hospitalares pelas intercorrências dialíticas em pacientes renais crônicos no Nordeste. Método: trata-se de um estudo quantitativo, descritivo e ecológico, voltado para a análise de dados do Sistema de Informações Hospitalares, organizados em frequências absolutas e relativas, a partir de tabelas construídas no software Excel. Resultados: notificaram-se 14.052 internações e 987 óbitos no Nordeste. Gerou-se, como consequência, um custo superior a R$ 19,6 milhões aos cofres públicos, com um valor médio de internação de R$ 1.543,09 e uma média de permanência de 9,1 dias. Destacaram-se os Estados de Alagoas, com a prevalência das internações (38,2%), e Bahia, em relação aos óbitos (40%), custos hospitalares (61,4%), média de permanência (14,4 dias) e valor médio de internação (R$ 2.794,42). Conclusão: aponta-se que as internações e óbitos pelas intercorrências dialíticas constituem um importante problema na Nefrologia, causando prejuízos diretos aos recursos financeiros públicos, especialmente, nos Estados da Bahia e Alagoas, por evidenciarem a maioria dos casos.

Method: this is a quantitative, descriptive and ecological study, focused on the analysis of data from the Hospital Information System, organized in absolute and relative frequencies, using tables built using Excel software. Results: 14,052 hospitalizations and 987 deaths were reported in the Northeast. As a result, the public coffers cost over R $ 19.6 million, with an average hospitalization value of R $ 1,543.09 and an average length of stay of 9.1 days. The states of Alagoas stood out, with the prevalence of hospitalizations (38.2%), and Bahia, in relation to deaths (40%), hospital costs (61.4%), average length of stay (14.4 days) and average value of hospitalization (R $ 2,794.42). Conclusion: it is pointed out that hospitalizations and deaths due to dialysis complications are an important problem in Nephrology, causing direct damage to public financial resources, especially in the states of Bahia and Alagoas, as they show the majority of cases.

Método: se trata de un estudio cuantitativo, descriptivo y ecológico, destinado a analizar los datos del Sistema de Informaciones del Hospital, organizado en frecuencias absolutas y relativas, a partir de tablas construidas en el software Excel. Resultados: se reportaron 14.052 hospitalizaciones y 987 muertes en el noreste. Se generó como resultado de eso, un costo en exceso de R $ 19,6 millones para el gobierno, una hospitalización con costo promedio de R$1,543.09 y una estadía promedio de 9.1 días. Entre los estados, Alagoas tuvo una mayor prevalencia de hospitalizaciones (38,2%) y Bahía en las muertes (40%), costos hospitalarios (61,4%), duración media de la estancia (14,4 días) y media hospitalización (R $ 2.794,42). Conclusión: se observa que las hospitalizaciones y muertes debidas a las intercurrencias dialíticas se constituyen un problema importante en la nefrología, lo que implica directamente en los cofres públicos, especialmente en los Estados de Bahía y Alagoas, como evidencia de una mayor prevalencia de casos.
