Materials & Methods: The current study was a descriptive-analytic study and the study population included patients readmitted in Pasteur Hospital in Bam, Javad Al-Aimeh Hospital in Narmashir, and Ayatollah Hashemi Rafsanjani Hospital in Regan in 2019. The samples consisted of 312 patient records which were chosen randomly. Data were collected by a checklist and were analyzed using SPSS software version 23 and descriptive and analytical tests (Chi-square and one-way analysis of variance). Results: The results showed that the internal medicine department received 34% of readmissions. The average readmission cost was 17,265,353 Rials. The most common reasons for readmissions were having a new disease (46.2 percent) and recurrence of the former disease (39.8 percent). Findings of inferential statistics revealed no significant relationship between the causes of readmissions and gender (P = 0.566), age (P = 0.065), or costs (P = 0.625), but there was a significant relationship between the causes of readmissions and marital status (P = 0.049) and married people had more readmissions than single people. Conclusion: It is necessary to pay more attention to readmissions caused by disease recurrence. It is also possible to prevent such readmissions and improve the quality of medical services by standardizing hospital processes and tools, standardizing staff training, and employing new diagnostic and treatment methods.Sajjad MoshkiShaghayegh VahdatSomayeh HesamTehran University of Medical Sciencesarticlereadmissioncostcauseshospitalbam.Public aspects of medicineRA1-1270FAبیمارستان, Vol 19, Iss 4, Pp 1-8 (2020)
