What is it?
Transitional Care Management (TCM) is a care coordination service that provides crucial assistance within a 30-day service window to patients who transition from the inpatient hospital setting back to home. The TCM process allows a healthcare setting to implement interventions and education to patients before negative outcomes take place, and to improve the level of satisfaction reported from the patient experience.
Healthcare settings who provide TCM services to their patients are able to improve the patient’s self-care abilities after discharge while reducing the likelihood of exacerbations and readmissions to the hospital. ICAHN staff work with facilities to implement compliant TCM processes that meet both regulatory standards and the needs of the healthcare system.
