Learn More
Repisodic Choice is the only free solution on the market for hospitals to achieve compliance with new CMS regulations.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) recently issued a final rule that revises hospital discharge planning requirements to empower patients to make more informed post-acute care decisions. The rule goes into effect on November 29, 2019.
What This Means for Hospitals
As mandated by the Improving Medicare Post-Acute Care Transformation Act of 2014 (IMPACT Act),
hospitals are now required to assist patients in selecting a post-acute care provider by using and sharing data on quality
measures and resource use measures.
This data must be relevant and applicable to the patient’s goals of care and treatment preferences.
Repisodic is the Best Solution to Ensure Compliance
Repisodic Choice is free, easy to use, and can get you compliant immediately. Our
platform makes it easy to put together CMS-compliant lists of post-acute care providers that includes the most recent
quality measures and resource use measures for patient review.
Our national database includes all managed care organization network information, relevant disclosures related
to patient freedom of choice and can be customized to include requisite financial disclosures for
hospital-associated post-acute providers.
Repisodic Choice Features Address Key Hospital Requirements
The hospital must share post-acute care data on quality measures and resource use measures with the patient and their caregivers.
Repisodic Choice post-acute care lists include patient relevant quality data that is seamlessly shared with patients and caregivers inside or outside of the hospital.
The hospital’s discharge plan must include a list of providers that are available to the patient, participate in the Medicare program, and meet the geographic needs of the patient.
Repisodic’s database includes all Medicare certified providers. Hospital users can quickly filter providers based on insurance, clinical services, and location to build a list customized for each patient.
The hospital must inform the patient of their freedom to choose among participating Medicare providers.
Repisodic Choice complies with Freedom of Choice guidelines and reminds the patient when the list is presented.
Hospitals must document how list of post-acute care providers and quality data was presented to the patient in the patient’s medical record.
Repisodic Choice's standard patient signature template is presented with each list and can be used to meet survey requirements.
