Heart failure (HF) readmissions are common, costly, and often preventable. Despite the implementation of HF programs across clinical settings, rehospitalization is still common. Efforts to identify risk factors for 60-day rehospitalization among HF patients exist, but risk scoring has not been utilized in home healthcare. The purpose of this study was to develop a 60-day rehospitalization risk score for home care patients with HF. This study is a secondary data analysis of a retrospective cross-sectional dataset that was composed of data using the Outcome Assessment Information Set (OASIS)-C version for patients with HF. We computed the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) to use as a confounder. The risk score was computed from the final logistic regression model regression coefficients. The median age was 78 years old, 45.4% were male, and 81.0% were White. We identified 10 significant risk factors including CCI score. The risk score achieved a c-statistic of 0.70 in this patient sample. This risk score could prove useful in clinical practice for guiding attention and decision-making for personalized care of patients with unrecognized or under-treated health needs.
