In general terms the HaH Model of Care aims to address many of the challenges faced by acute hospitals including:
HaH Model
Fixed Hospital
Bed Capacity
Emergency Department
Access Block
Patient Complications Due
In-Hospital Care (HAC)
Budget
Constraints
HaH Service
Hospital in Your Home has developed a stand-alone Hospital at Home (HaH) service which provides comprehensive medical, nursing and allied health resources working in synergy to truly demonstrate both the extensive positive patient outcomes and the financial benefits we may deliver through the investment in a new and innovative approach to managing HaH amenable patients.
We believe this approach provides the opportunity to explore new ways of driving value for customers, providing health services which not only allow the provision of more service for less but also appreciate increasing consumer expectations to tailor health services to better meet their needs.

The Hospital at Home model has been designed from the outset to be portable and scalable, allowing rapid implementation at new sites with very rapid service maturation with regards to all measured KPIs.
This list is by no means exhaustive and new treatments can be developed in partnership with the contract holder using our extensive experience in providing hospital substitution models.
- Length of Stay (LOS) – DRG groups – HaH v Hospital and HaH v State average LOS.
- Percentage of unplanned readmissions within 28 days – Same DRG – HaH v Hospital and Readmissions for any condition HaH v Hospital.
- Percentage of transfers back to hospital under the care of HaH.
- Percentage of deaths during the HaH episode of care.
- Adverse events – HaH v Hospital (medication errors, pressure injury, falls, clinical handover and bloodstream infections).
