Admission & Hospitalization Reduction

NICaS can help in reducing readmission & hospitalization rates for heart failure patients. Our technology can assist in the assessment and management of CHF patients in various settings.

Reducing Readmission & Hospitalization Rates for Heart Failure Patients

How NICaS Helps Reduce Hospitalization and Readmission Rates:

  • Utilizing NICaS technology, provided by InnovaMed Sphere, can effectively reduce hospitalization and readmission rates for heart failure, including reversions from outpatient settings back to the hospital.
  • NICaS is accurate, and more importantly, it is consistent. This allows assessment of a patient’s clinical response to medication adjustments over time. NICaS enables medication titration not previously seen in these CHF patients.
  • NICaS takes the guesswork out of managing difficult patients with heart failure. It facilitates expeditious optimization of these patients.
  • NICaS helps to identify patients with impending heart failure before they reach the stage of decompensation, allowing the time to make the necessary adjustments that prevent deterioration.
  • Using NICaS for the management of HF patients reduces Hospital Readmission Rate by over 90%.

Heart Failure Hospitalizations In Numbers

  • CHF is the chief diagnosis in 875,000 hospitalizations annually, and the most common diagnosis in hospital patients aged 65 years and older.
  • Heart failure is responsible for 11 million physician visits each year, and leads to more hospitalizations than all forms of cancer combined.
  • The majority of hospital admissions for heart failure are, in fact, readmissions.
  • Approximately 24% of the people discharged from the hospital with heart failure will be readmitted within 30 days. More than half of them will be readmitted within 6 months.
  • Heart failure is the number one discharge diagnosis seen by Medicare. The direct and indirect costs of heart failure add up to about $40 billion annually.
