As described in more detail below, we are proposing to incorporate as elements of APCM services Management of Care Transitions and Enhanced Communications Opportunities. For the Management of Care Transitions APCM service element, we are proposing to specify timely follow-up during care transitions (see section II.G.2.c.(6) of this proposed rule)
[66] When developing a standardized process for data exchange and timely follow-up, successful practices include the following processes: information and data exchange about patients seen in an ED or admitted to/discharged from a hospital (for example, via HIE, hospital portal, hospital-generated report, EHR, or additional health IT system)
