By the end of 2013, preventable hospital-acquired conditions would decrease by 40% compared to 2010. Achieving this goal would mean approximately 1.8 million fewer injuries to patients, with more than 60,000 lives saved over the next three years.
By the end of 2013, preventable complications during a transition from one care setting to another would be decreased so that all hospital readmissions would be reduced by 20% compared to 2010. Achieving this goal would mean more than 1.6 million patients will recover from illness without suffering a preventable complication requiring re-hospitalization within 30 days of discharge.
Sounds nice and flowery. There are no details on how this will be accomplished. There are no lists of regulations that will come into play - or fees for violating such regulations.
What we do know is the cost - and we know that we have no money for this.

It will be another fake no-work job like the one Michelle Obama had when she worked at a hospital in Chicago. Her work was so "important" that they did not even bother to backfill the position once she left for Washington.

Nothing but platitudes and pie-in-the-sky rhetoric, as if hospitals and medical care providers are not addressing these issues already. Nope, we need the federal government to take this over, and only bureaucrats are capable of making it happen.
