Care after a hospital stay
The first month home is when patients most need someone to call. Contact within two days, a visit within two weeks, and the handoff on one record from the first day.
For the first month after a hospital stay.
Patients going home after a stay need a call, a visit, and medications that make sense, in that order and soon.
Patients this works well for
- Patients going home after a hospital or nursing facility stay
- Medication changes made at discharge
- Patients who need a visit in the first two weeks
- Caregivers who need to know who to call
Patients better served elsewhere
- Patients past their first month home who need ongoing care
- Patients who check in from home between routine visits
- One serious condition that needs a named coordinator
- Ongoing care for complex conditionsMonthly follow-ups for patients with two or more long-term conditions, with one care plan and one care team on the same record.
- Follow-up care from homePatients check in from home between visits. Your team sees what changed, acts early, and the record is written as it happens.

Questions practice managers ask
How do we find out about a discharge?
When the discharge reaches your EHR, it appears on the care team's list with the summary and medication list attached. Discharges that arrive another way can be added to the same list by hand.
What has to happen in the first month?
Contact with the patient or caregiver within two business days, medications reconciled, and a face-to-face or video visit within the first two weeks. Each step is a task on the list, with the note attached when it is done.
Does the AI reconcile medications?
No. AI assistance can flag a possible duplicate or change on the discharge list for the nurse to check. The nurse and the clinician reconcile medications with the patient and sign the note.
How does billing work?
When the first month closes, the claim is prepared with the signed notes from the call and the visit attached, ready for your billing team to send.
Home, and staying there. Every step of the handoff on the record.
