Abstract
Missing a malnutrition diagnosis appears to be a universal issue because the rate of malnutrition diagnosis was consistently low across academic medical centers. Institutional variables were associated with the prevalence of malnutrition diagnosis, which suggests that institutional culture influences malnutrition diagnosis. Quality improvement efforts aimed at improved structure and process appear to be needed to improve the identification of malnutrition.
