What is care coordination?
Care coordination is a patient-centered approach that organizes patient care activities and shares information among all participants concerned with a patient’s care to achieve safer and more effective care. This includes managing specialist referrals, hospital discharge follow-ups, and ensuring seamless communication between all healthcare providers.
When you need specialized care, our team will identify the right specialist for your condition, provide a comprehensive referral with your complete medical history, and coordinate scheduling. We also receive reports from specialists and integrate them into your care plan.
After hospital discharge, we review all discharge paperwork, medications, and follow-up instructions. We schedule a post-discharge appointment within 7-14 days to monitor your recovery, adjust medications if needed, and ensure you understand your care plan.
