RT Journal A1 Hernandez AF, Fonarow GC, Curtis LH T1 EArly physician follow-up and 30-day readmission among older patients with heart failure—reply JF JAMA JO JAMA YR 2010 FD August 18 VO 304 IS 7 SP 743 OP 744 DO 10.1001/jama.2010.1148 UL http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/jama.2010.1148 AB Although this was not stated in the article, our analysis combined family physicians and general internists in a single category because the distinction of interest in the study was whether cardiology care differed from nonspecialty care. We found no differences in 30-day readmission whether a generalist or a cardiologist provided the follow-up care.
