There are a lack of data describing outcomes and follow-up after hospital discharge for patients with newly diagnosed cirrhosis with complication on index admission. This study examines factors that influence outcomes such as readmission, follow-up, and mortality for patients with newly diagnosed cirrhosis. We conducted a single-center retrospective chart review study of 230 patients with newly diagnosed cirrhosis from January 1st, 2020 through December 31st, 2021. We obtained demographics, clinical diagnoses, admission, and discharge MELD-Na, disposition, mortality, appointment requests rate, appointment show rate, and readmission. The primary complications on admission were GI bleed (27%), ascites (25.7%), and hepatic encephalopathy (HE) (10.4%). Overall, the median length of stay (LOS) was 6days, and the readmission rate was 27%. Out of 230 patients, 25 (10.9%) patients died while hospitalized while another 43 (18.6%) died after initial discharge within the two-year study period. Although there was a significant reduction of the MELD-Na from admission to discharge (p < 0.05), admission MELD-Na did not correlate with LOS and discharge MELD-Na did not predict readmission. Patients with HE had the highest median LOS, while patients with ascites had the highest readmission rate. The median time to an appointment was 32days. When comparing discharge destinations, most patients were discharged to home (63%), to facilities (13.9%), or expired (10.9%). The average appointment show rate was 38.5%, although 70% of patients had appointment requests. Readmission rate and mortality did not differ based on appointment requests. No significant differences in outcomes were observed based on race, sex, or insurance status. New diagnosis of decompensated was found to have high mortality and high readmission rates. Higher MELD-Na score was seen in patients who died within 30days. Routine appointment requests did not significantly improve readmission, mortality, increase appointment show rate, or decrease time to appointment. A comprehensive and specialized hepatology-specific program may have great benefits after cirrhotic decompensation, especially for those with newly diagnosed cirrhosis.
