Reducing Hospital Admissions for Patients with Substance Use Disorders
The NavSTAR trial found that providing patient navigation for hospitalized patients with substance use disorders (SUDs) reduced subsequent inpatient admissions compared to standard treatment.
Practical Solutions and Value:
- Implementing patient navigation intervention can help reduce readmissions for patients with comorbid SUDs.
- Identifying patient factors associated with readmission can help optimize interventions and improve outcomes.
