care transition management

Care transition management involves coordinating and ensuring smooth movement of a patient from one healthcare setting to another, such as from hospital to home or a rehab facility. It aims to provide clear communication, proper follow-up instructions, and support so that the patient's care continues seamlessly. This helps prevent mistakes, readmissions, and ensures the patient understands their treatment plan, medications, and needs during the transition period. Effective care transition management improves health outcomes, enhances patient experience, and reduces healthcare costs by making sure everyone involved in the patient’s care stays informed and aligned.
