Stan Kalata, first year @UMichCHOPFellow, eloquently presenting his work examining whether hospital networks that own SNFs send more of their surgical patients to SNFs. Higher rates of SNF use, but lower readmissions. Well done! Michigan Surgery

Be sure to check out these great MSTCVS Quality Collaborative presentations at this year's meeting #AATS2022!

Great presentation by Dr Kalata from UMich at AATS mtg on improved lymph node staging in lung cancer from MSTCVS quality collaborative #AATS2022

So grateful for the opportunity to showcase the power of the MSTCVS Quality Collaborative, a rising tide lifting all boats in Michigan. @kiranlagisetty Andrew Chang Rishi Reddy (he/him) #puremichigan #AATS2022

The final day of #ARM22 kicks off with a podium presentation by Stan Kalata on his team's evaluation of the effect of Maryland’s global budget policy on patient level outcomes for #Medicare beneficiaries undergoing common and serious surgical procedures: academyhealth.confex.com/academyhealth/…

Stan Kalata, my incredible co-resident, with a thoughtful presentation about global budgets in Maryland on surgical quality for Medicare beneficiaries. Findings included that surgical outcomes were not worse and index hospitalization and readmission payments were lower #ARM2022

We’ve always talked about price variation by site of care … the Hospital Price Transparency Rule now helps us elucidate the variability across insurers. Stan Kalata Michigan Surgery #ACSCC22

Stan Kalata presenting his outstanding work on variation in SNF quality for surgical patients. Publicly available ranking systems are not informative. Great presentation!

Thank you so much for leading such great discussions!

SNF vertical integration in a hospital network was linked with higher SNF utilization and lower 30-day readmissions, without evidence of higher overall episode payments, compared to networks without vertical integration of SNFs. ja.ma/3ImnfzI Stan Kalata
