Burden of readmission: more than just a readmission rate, primary outcome takes lengths of stay into account. We considered the ratio of days spent in readmission over all days spent in hospital during the study periods. Each line corresponds to a patient, and each box is a hospitalization with various lengths of stay. Grey boxes are hospitalizations considered as 30 day readmission.
