Delayed discharges. Another fine mess.

Bob Hudson1, Gill Herbert.   

Abstract

A simulation exercise on charging for delayed discharges revealed significant potential for conflict between organisations, and no benefit for service users. Participants thought the charging system would work against the development of community services. They favoured joint NHS/local authority approaches to the development of an effective system for preventing delayed discharges.
