Kandu Reduces Stroke Survivor Readmission Rates by Up to 50%1

$25 Billion is spent annually on stroke survivors during the first year post-stroke2. Kandu’s Principal Illness Navigation (PIN) service helps to drive down the cost of care.

The average stroke patient will cost $34,000 within the first year post-stroke, nearly half of which is attributable to rehospitalization.

Kandu stroke survivors readmit over 50% less often than published norms3, reducing healthcare expenses.

Kandu provides post-discharge stroke recovery support through Evaluation and Management (E/M), PIN, and specialty codes to:

  • Increase stroke survivors’ quality of life
  • Create durability of clinical outcomes
  • Decrease subsequent readmissions and healthcare expenses
