Proposed Project
The Re-Engineered Visit for Primary
Care
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501–3521,
AHRQ invites the public to comment on
this proposed information collection.
This project, The Re-engineered Visit for
Primary Care, directly addresses the
agency’s goal to conduct research to
enhance the quality of health care and
reduce avoidable readmissions, which
are a major indicator of poor quality and
patient safety.
Research from AHRQ’s Healthcare
Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP)
indicates that in 2011 there were
approximately 3.3 million adult hospital
readmissions in the United States.
Adults covered by Medicare have the
highest readmission rate (17.2 per 100
admissions), followed by adults covered
by Medicaid (14.6 per 100 admissions)
and privately insured adults (8.7 per
