"Information on hospital return days helps you evaluate a hospital’s quality of care based on how much time patients spend back in the hospital during the first 30 days after discharge. For example, hospitals with fewer than average days are likely arranging timely follow-up, ensuring that patients have the proper medicines, and releasing patients into a proper aftercare location"
