At VirtuMedex, we understand that preventing avoidable hospital readmissions is critical for Rehabilitation Facilities and Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNFs) to maintain high CMS Star Ratings, maximize reimbursements, and improve overall patient outcomes. Our Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM), Transitional Care Management (TCM), and Chronic Care Management (CCM) services ensure that patients receive continuous oversight, timely interventions, and expert care coordination to support their recovery and reduce unnecessary hospitalizations post discharge from your facility. At the same time we provide Comprehensive Chronic Care Management (CCM) to Close Care Gaps for the patients that are currently in your facility.
Key Benefits for Rehab & Skilled Nursing Facilities:
- CMS Star Ratings are directly impacted by rehospitalization rates. A high readmission rate can negatively affect reimbursements, payer contracts, and facility reputation.
- Our proactive care management, remote patient monitoring, and virtual physician access help keep patients stable, reducing readmissions and improving your facility’s star rating and quality metrics.
Prevent Avoidable Readmissions & Hospital Transfers
- Rehospitalization within 30 days of discharge is one of the most costly setbacks for SNFs and rehab facilities. VirtuMedex provides early intervention through real-time monitoring, post-discharge follow-ups, and virtual physician oversight, significantly reducing hospital transfers and improving patient stability.
- By addressing acute changes in condition before they escalate, our services help SNFs and rehab facilities retain patients longer and ensure uninterrupted rehabilitative care.
Maximize Reimbursements & Protect Against Penalties
- Facilities with high readmission rates face lower reimbursement rates and financial penalties from Medicare and other payers.
- By partnering with VirtuMedex, facilities can demonstrate superior patient management and proactive care strategies, leading to higher reimbursement rates and continued eligibility for value-based care incentives.
Comprehensive Chronic Care Management (CCM) to Close Care Gaps
- Our physicians review patient charts regularly, identifying and addressing gaps in care that may lead to deterioration, hospitalizations, or suboptimal patient outcomes.
- Through proactive chronic disease management, our team ensures that patients receive timely medication adjustments, preventive screenings, and appropriate interventions to avoid complications and improve long-term well-being.
- Better chronic care management leads to improved patient stability, reduced emergency interventions, and enhanced quality of life for residents.
Enhance Patient Well-Being & Facility Reputation
- A facility with lower readmission rates and better clinical outcomes attracts more referrals, higher payer contracts, and greater trust from patients and families.
- With VirtuMedex’s continuous support, rehab and SNF patients receive superior care, experience fewer disruptions, and recover more effectively—leading to increased satisfaction and a stronger reputation for your facility.
