^*The manuscript states that this is a quasi-experimental case control study design.The matched patients with patients with joint replacements discharged to inpatient rehabilitation facilities to those discharged to skilled nursing facilities and then compared outcomes. Because they selected on the basis of exposure (care setting) and followed patients for outcomes, we classified this study as a prospective cohort study.
