And the hospital day of the surgical hospital was shorten from (15.05±6.59) d to (12.97±5.24) d, and medical expenses were decreased by 2.18% in total, 4.76% per knee and 14.01% in rehabilitation costs.Conclusions Under the mode of medical alliance, transferring patients with TKA from a tertiary hospital to secondary rehabilitation hospitals in their early postoperative phase can facilitate recovery of the patients, and it can also help to reduce hospital day and medical expenses, thus to optimize the allocation of medical resources.
