HARNESSING THE POWER OF CTSA-CDRN DATA NETWORKS: USING SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH, FRAILTY AND FUNCTIONAL STATUS TO IDENTIFY AT-RISK PATIENTS AND IMPROVE RISK ADJUSTMENT

Postoperative complications and readmissions rates are higher in minority and low socioeconomic status (SES)patients. Low SES is associated with frailty, one of the best predictors of 30-day postoperative complicationsand early hospital readmission. Despite their influence on health outcomes, frailty and social risk factors are notconsidered in risk adjustment for reimbursement and quality measures. CMS developed financial incentive-based programs to improve quality of care.
