Preventable adverse patient outcomes and hospital characteristics in rural versus nonrural US hospitals under the new Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services reimbursement policy were examined using the American Hospital Association Annual Survey and Hospital Compare data. Under the new Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services policy, rural hospitals tended to have fewer hospital-acquired conditions than nonrural hospitals except for patient falls. Case mix was consistently related to falls after controlling for hospital characteristics.
利用美国医院协会年度调查和医院比较数据，研究了在美国医疗保险和医疗补助服务中心新报销政策下，美国农村和非农村医院中可预防的不良患者结局及医院特征。根据美国医疗保险和医疗补助服务中心的新政策，除患者跌倒外，农村医院的医院获得性疾病往往比非农村医院少。在控制医院特征后，病例组合与跌倒始终相关。
