Abstrakt: Decades of research have demonstrated that Hospital at Home (HaH) safely delivers hospital-level care in a patient's home. More recently, research has informed the development of a value-based payment model to disseminate HaH. The COVID-19 pandemic enabled regulatory changes leading to the enactment of a payment for HaH in the Medicare program, the Acute Hospital Care at Home (AHCAH) waiver. This article highlights the crucial role of health policy research in advancing HaH and its role in enabling AHCAH before discussing ongoing research that will guide the future of HaH.
