Patient Handoffs
Effectively Managing Care Transitions
Feature articles by Maureen Bisognano and Amy Boutwell, MD; and Amita Chugh,
Mark V. Williams, MD, FACP, James Grigsby, PhD, and Eric A. Coleman, MD
Transitions of care, the handoff of the patient from one provider to the next, is the focus of this
issue of Frontiers. As Dr. Eric Coleman of the University of Colorado Hospitals says, "Discharge
out of the hospital is a time of heightened vulnerability for our patients." This is a point at which
there is, as Maureen Bisognano from the Institute for Healthcare Improvement suggests, great
opportunity for improvement in the quality of care that we deliver. This issue's commentators
provide additional insight into this situation.
