Does anyone work at a hospital where there are policies in place for medical management of newborn hyperbilirubinemia, including parameters for post-discharge treatment and hospital readmission for that diagnosis? I have been requested by my colleagues to submit this question to the group. I work at a hospital(approx. 3000 del./yr.) where we see variations in regards to interventions by many different private practice physicians. I have reviewed jaundice, hyperbilirubinemia, and hospital protocols in the archives and have not found the specific answer I am looking for. If anyone has these policies/protocols in place, please email me privately.
