Yup. I work in healthcare and one story I hear is about readmission rates to hospitals. Basically, you don't want people to have to go back to the hospital after a procedure due to complications. So it makes sense for Medicare to reward hospitals and surgeons with low readmission rates. All good. Except for one little problem, there's one kind of patient that never ever gets readmitted. A dead one. And studies have shown that decreases in readmission rates are correlated with increases in morality rates (at least for certain procedures).
