Maximizing the Impact of Acute Care at Home: Three Health Systems Share their Success

Acute care at home is transforming healthcare. By enabling health systems to provide hospital-level services in the comfort of patients’ homes, this innovative model not only improves patient satisfaction but also alleviates strain on overcrowded healthcare facilities. It does so by freeing up beds, increasing patient throughput, reducing readmissions, and more. As hospital-at-home programs continue to evolve, health systems are discovering new opportunities to extend care beyond traditional acute conditions, reaching a wider range of patients in their homes. 

In this white paper, we explore how three leading health systems—pioneers in the hospital-at-home space—have evolved their care models, expanded the range of conditions they treat, and broadened the types of patients who can benefit from acute care at home.

• UMass Memorial Health expanded hospital-at-home care to better support postpartum patients
