OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Rehabilitation-at-Home (RaH), which provides high-frequency, multidisciplinary post-acute rehabilitative services in patients' homes.
DESIGN: Comparative effectiveness analysis.
SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: Medicare Fee-For-Service patients who received RaH in a Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation Center Demonstration during 2016-2017 (N=173) or who received Medicare Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) care in 2016-2017 within the same geographic service area with similar inclusion and exclusion criteria (N=5535).
METHODS: We propensity-matched RaH participants to a cohort of SNF patients using clinical and demographic characteristics with exact match on surgical and non-surgical hospitalizations. Outcomes included hospitalization within 30 days of post-acute admission, death within 30 days of post-acute discharge, length of stay, falls, use of antipsychotic medication, and discharge to community.
RESULTS: The majority of RaH participants were older than or equal to 85 years (57.8%) and non-Hispanic white (72.2%) with mean hospital length of stay of 8.1 (SD 7.6) days. In propensity-matched analyses, 10.1% (95% CI: 0.5%, 19.8) and 4.2% (95% CI: 0.1%, 8.5%) fewer RaH participants experienced hospital readmission and death, respectively. RaH participants had, on average, 2.8 fewer days (95% CI 1.4, 4.3) of post-acute care; 11.4% (95% CI: 5.2%, 17.7%) fewer RaH participants experienced fall; and 25.8% (95% CI: 17.8%, 33.9%) more were discharged to the community. Use of antipsychotic medications was no different.
CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: RaH is a promising alternative to delivering SNF-level post-acute RaH. The program seems to be safe, readmissions are lower, and transition back to the community is improved.
