2. Number of selected strategies implemented and risk-standardized readmission rates (RSRRs).
Number of selected strategies implemented and risk-standardized readmission rates (RSRRs). Note: B=−0.34, SE=0.04, P<0.001 in multivariable model adjusting for teaching status, region, and number of hospital beds. Number of selected strategies (possible range, 0–10) was calculated by assigning a 1 to every strategy implemented that was positively associated with RSRRs and assigning a 1 to every strategy not implemented that was negatively associated with RSRRs. Adjusted R2=0.14.
