Malnutrition risk and severity: Impact on patient outcomes and financial hospital reimbursement in a tertiary teaching hospital

Malnutrition risk and severity: Impact on patient outcomes and financial hospital reimbursement in a tertiary teaching hospital (Elsevier).



Despite its negative impact on patients and health care expenditures, malnutrition remains an under-recognized problem in hospitals. The objectives were thus: 1) to study the prevalence of malnutrition risk, protein-calorie malnutrition and cachexia in a Belgian tertiary care
hospital, 2) to evaluate the impact thereof on patient outcomes, and 3) to evaluate the impact of optimizing malnutrition screening, diagnosing, registration and coding on
hospital reimbursement.
[...]

Conclusions
Malnutrition still affects both patients and health care finances. Patients at
risk for, or having malnutrition at admission have worse outcomes than those
without. Importantly, hospital reimbursement for these patients can effectively
be increased by implementing an automated nutritional screening and diagnosing
protocol with optimized dietetic registration and enhanced nutritional coding.
