The impact of social isolation on delayed hospital discharges of older hip fracture patients and associated costs by Landeiro, F, Leal, J, Gray, A

“…Patients who were admitted from an institution were less likely to have delayed discharges (OR 0.2) with 5.5 fewer days of delay. Total costs of delayed discharges were between 11.2 and 30.7 % of total costs (€2352 and €9317 per patient with delayed discharge) conditional on whether waiting costs for placement in public-funded rehabilitation unit were included.High risk of social isolation, social isolation and referral to public-funded rehabilitation units increase delays in patients' discharges from acute care hospitals.…”
