Description

This study investigates the impact of EHR (Electronic Health Records) implementation on hospitals' readmissions and total performance score (TPS). Hospitals adopt and implement EHR to improve quality of care and improve patients' care process and experience. Data from American Hospital Association (AHA) and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) are used to measure the impact of EHR implementation. Our results show that EHR implementation increases readmissions in large hospitals and increases TPS scores in hospitals located in non-metro areas. The practical implications of the results are discussed in the paper.
