Transition of Care. Getting patient’s the right care, at the right place, at the right time.

Hosted by LGI Healthcare Solutions

According to the National Library of Medicine, “The most vulnerable exchange point within the healthcare system is when a patient is required to transition from one healthcare service to the next, with the greatest potential of health disparities for older adults and chronically ill patients.”

Whether a patient is being moved from acute care to a long-term care facility, or from an ER setting to a community clinic, implementing comprehensive, yet easy-to-use, transitional care solutions is vital to supporting positive patient outcomes – and for controlling costs by managing readmission rates. This session brings together representatives from across the healthcare ecosystem to discuss the challenges of implementing transitional care protocols, and how to leverage technologies to drive efficiency, promote collaboration, and mitigate risk.
