2018 Annual Meeting Recorded Session B209: Movin' Out: Extending Pulmonary Rehab out to the Home and Community
Pulmonary rehabilitation is grossly under-utilized, especially in the post-discharge period following the COPD exacerbation. Discharged patients are very reluctant to come in to a center-based program. This session would explore the option of extending PR to the home or community. The problem of poor-uptake will be reviewed, relevant evidence-based literature on home based PR will be reviewed, and innovative, revenue-neutral approaches will be discussed.

Pulmonary rehabilitation is grossly under-utilized, especially in the post-discharge period following the COPD exacerbation. Discharged patients are very reluctant to come in to a center-based program. This session would explore the option of extending PR to the home or community. The problem of poor-uptake will be reviewed, relevant evidence-based literature on home based PR will be reviewed, and innovative, revenue-neutral approaches will be discussed.
Learning Objectives:
- Explain the problem of poor uptake of PR in the post-discharge period
- Summarize the literature on alternative approaches to PR, especially in the home
- Describe potential revenue-neutral options of bringing pulmonary rehab to the home and even ECF-based.
