Weekend effect in surgery linked to electronic records study
A Loyola University study of 127 221 patients across 166 hospitals finds weekend surgery tied to longer stays and more readmissions, with electronic health records the main factor reducing the weekend effect. Other contributors include nurse staffing and social workers, but EMRs show the biggest impact on outcomes. The Affordable Care Act encourages EHR use to lower costs and improve care, with Medicare penalties boosting compliance.
