x) from 2016‐2019. The rate of 30‐day readmission was overall stable (7.34% in 2016 and 7.70% in 2019; p=0.42), but the 90‐day readmission rate slightly increased from 11.69% in 2016 to 12.47% in 2019 (p=0.04). ConclusionThe annual rate of 90‐day readmission, but not 30‐day readmission, increased from 2016 to 2019.
