AHRQ Care Transition Intervention (CTI)

The AHRQ Care Transition Intervention (CTI) is a program designed to help patients smoothly move from hospital to home by improving communication and coordination among healthcare providers, patients, and caregivers. It provides patients with personalized support, education about their medications and health conditions, and helps arrange follow-up care. The goal is to prevent unnecessary hospital readmissions, ensure patients understand their treatment plan, and promote better recovery at home. Essentially, CTI acts as a bridge to ensure patients receive ongoing, coordinated care after hospital discharge.
