We are looking to post three categories of post-acute data back into Cerner/Millennium, so that clients can access this information through iViews and/or Results Review:
- Referral Status
- Referral placement details across all post-acute levels of care, including but not limited to Long-Term Care, Rehabilitation, Skilled Nursing Facility, Home Health, Durable Medical Equipment (DME), Assisted Living, Hospice, Infusion, Transportation and Palliative Care.
- Please refer to the Referral Status tab in the attached document for the detailed list of data elements proposed for posting.
- Patient Choice
- Documentation of patient-selected post-acute facility preferences captured during discharge planning workflows.
- This dataset is critical for compliance with CMS requirements regarding patient choice documentation.
- Post-Acute Authorization
- Status updates for prior authorization requests initiated from our platform for selected levels of care.
- These updates provide case managers with necessary visibility, as authorization approval is a prerequisite for patient discharge in many scenarios.
Based on our review of case manager workflows within PowerChart, we recommend surfacing this data under a dedicated WellSky/CarePort tab in Results Review. To move forward, we need your assistance in configuring our PowerChart test environment to support development, integration, and validation of this functionality.
We appreciate your collaboration and look forward to your guidance on next steps.
