readmission

Returning after leaving

Readmission is the act of being admitted again to a place or institution after leaving or being discharged.

The term appears most often in healthcare, where hospital readmission within thirty days of discharge is tracked as a quality measure: The patient's readmission was due to complications from surgery.

It also applies to schools and organizations: She applied for readmission after taking a year off.
