These are outcome measures that are reported in the CMS Quarterly update. The readmission measures rates reflect readmits within 30 days of discharge. Regarding mortality, the measure reflects death within 30 days of hospital admission. It is important to note that the date range for these measures is 3 years long, and while they are included in the CMS Quarterly update, they are generally only changed annually. Because of this, we replace them in pellucid with newer versions of the same data with quarterly updates until it is time to introduce the new date range.
