Not only are hospitals penalized for readmissions, they are also forced to send patients home “sicker and quicker” as insurance says patients no longer qualify for inpatient care even if they are still receiving vital treatments.

The penalties apply to medicare and medicaid patients. I do not want to confuse the issue with insurance-covered individuals. Hospitals screen clients to find out how they are going to get paid.
