Adoption of 'hospital-at-home' programs remains concentrated among larger, urban, not-for-profit and academic hospitals Study highlights need for targeted incentives to expand program to smaller, rural, and non-teaching hospitals.

Established in November 2020 , the program allows hospitals to deliver care for acute medical illness to patients in their own homes in lieu of a traditional hospital admission.

The data is clear that these types of hospitals are not seeking to create these programs on their own.

Additional research is needed to understand the practical implications and tradeoffs of hospital-at-home programs.

"We still don't have a comprehensive understanding of how the programs are functioning on the ground," Zikry says.
