This use case covers the transfer of Skilled Nursing Facility patients to an Emergency Department and the subsequent possible transitions to an acute care facility and eventually back to the SNF.
Transfers from Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF) to an Emergency Department (ED) are the result of a clinical emergency. The goal of this implementation guide is to enable the information sharing from the SNF to the ED, and the information sharing as the result of the two general outcomes of the ED visit: return to the SNF, or admission to the hospital.
