Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: intervention group (IG)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
The IG will consist of placing the Epic 30-day unplanned readmission risk score in the story board of providers - If a patient is identified as having a high risk of readmission defined as readmission risk \>20%, a link to transitional and supportive care services (TSC) will be appear in the story board
