Abstract
A major focus of the Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement bundle is improving cost and quality by limiting readmission rates. TKA readmissions are low and comprise a small percentage of total TKA cost, suggesting that they may not be the optimal measure of quality care or a significant driver of overall cost.
