Transition Care Management Services — Transition From Hospital To Home Care

Transition Care Management refers to the coordination and continuity of health care during a movement from one healthcare setting to either another or to home. We at CHS offer trusted transitional care management services to ensure a smooth transition from hospital to home care, focusing on reducing readmissions and improving patient outcomes. Aligned with value-based care transition, we provide personalized support to enhance care continuity and promote better long-term health results.

Transition care management aims to ensure the successful transition of patients from hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare facilities back to their community setting, including rest homes, domiciliary care, assisted living facilities, or home care, leading to the best possible health outcomes for patients. It involves reducing readmissions during the 30-day transition care management period, which begins when the patient is discharged from the acute care setting and continues for the following 29 days.

Transition care service providers contact patients within 2 business days of discharge from the acute care setting and address patient status and needs following scheduled follow-up care. This includes transition care support for chronic conditions, and contact may be made via email, telephone, or in person for care coordination and billing purposes. We also offer customized transition care integration services to ensure each patient’s unique needs are met.
