Readmission-flag discharge safety-net agent

Readmission-flag discharge safety-net agent

Problem: Risk scores for readmission exist but live as passive flags in the chart. A University of Pennsylvania study showed that a simple EHR flag — two or more admissions in the prior 12 months — reliably identifies high readmission risk, yet the flag doesn't create follow-up work: no one schedules the 7-day visit, confirms the prescriptions were picked up, or calls the patient at 48 hours. The risk is known and the outreach doesn't happen.

Idea: Add an Orchestrate agent that activates on readmission-risk flags: it books the post-discharge follow-up before the patient leaves, orders the 48-hour check-in call, verifies prescription fills against the pharmacy, and escalates non-responses to the care team. Grounded in the UPenn/Journal of Hospital Medicine finding on prior-admissions as the strongest readmission predictor, and in policy-learning research (Scientific Reports, 2026) projecting 15–18% relative readmission reductions from better discharge-timing decisions on MIMIC-IV and eICU data.

Value: Known risk becomes executed follow-up — fewer avoidable readmissions and the associated CMS penalties, with each touchpoint documented.
