HF disease management programs have been shown to reduce rehospitalizations in community settings, no national guidelines have been set forth for Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF).
This study will investigate the the effect of a heart failure-disease management program on the outcome of all-cause hospital readmissions, emergency room admissions and mortality for 30 days post-SNF admission using 7 component heart failure disease management program.
