The Parties recognise that there is variation in the way States currently define Avoidable Hospital Readmissions, presenting challenges to the immediate development of a pricing and funding model. The ACSQHC will develop and maintain a list of clinical conditions, subject to AHMAC approval, that arise from complications of the management of the original condition, which can be considered Avoidable Hospital Readmissions, including identifying suitable condition-specific timeframes for each of the identified conditions. The Parties agree that the IHPA will consult with and have regard to the advice of the ACSQHC and Parties in the development of a pricing model for Avoidable Hospital Readmissions, for implementation by 1 July 2021, following approval from the CHC.
