Summary
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has approved seven new health systems to implement the hospital-at-home model, allowing them to deliver acute hospital care in patients' residences and receive reimbursement for these services. The approved systems include notable institutions such as UW Medicine in Seattle, Community Health Network in Indianapolis, and several others across the U.S. This expansion reflects a trend towards innovative, patient-centered care aimed at improving outcomes and alleviating stress on traditional hospital settings.
