Need to keep this in mind when designing new programs!

An occasional, simple “How are you feeling?” text from a primary care team can make a big difference in patients’ health after they are discharged from the hospital, according to a new study led by Eric Bressman, MD, & Anna U. Morgan, MD (@AnnaUma). https://t.co/3hDuRYrsEJ

Excited to share new work published in @JAMANetworkOpen yesterday!

Discharged patients who were enrolled in a primary-care based text messaging program were less likely to go back to the hospital within 30 days.

Pilot reported here, RCT ongoing!
