| Abstract | Concern over the human and financial costs of healthcare 'silos' and poorly coordinated care has been growing, fueled by data on risky patient 'handoffs,' repeat hospitalizations, and avoidable emergency department visits. More than 20% of patients experience an adverse clinical event within 30 days of the discharge from a hospital (). This column features research and review articles focused on the issue of 'handoffs' and transitional care. The investigators of the 1st article described studied communication and information transfer deficits between hospitalists and primary care physicians. The 2nd article presents findings of a systematic hospital-based intervention geared toward improving discharge experiences. The 3rd article describes another hospital-based initiative. This reengineered discharge intervention uses nurse discharge advocates as one component of a strategy to help patients understand, develop, and implement their discharge plans. The final article profiled in this column presents findings of a systematic literature review of randomized clinical trials that aimed to improve transitional care for chronically ill adults and opportunities to promote more widespread use of evidence-based programs through initiatives sponsored by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Interested readers are encouraged to read the articles for full information about the interventions and review findings. |

It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources.
