After a hospitalization or other inpatient facility stay (e.g., in a skilled nursing facility), the patient may be dealing with a medical crisis, new diagnosis, or change in medication therapy.
Transitional care management (TCM) is intended to reduce potentially preventable readmissions and medical errors during the 30 days following discharge from the acute care setting.
