New Mobile Health Application, Designed To Retain Nursing Home Census And Minimize Re-Hospitalization, Is Revolutionizing The Industry.

Lake Success, NY, November 12, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Reducing re-hospitalizations is one of the most important initiatives for long-term care facilities today. Skilled Nursing Facilities as well as Hospitals suffer greatly as a result of the high frequency “bounce back”.

Skilled Nursing Facilities across the country are struggling with the task of retaining census, nevertheless the rate of hospital return seems to be rapidly increasing. The “bounce back” from long-term facilities to the hospitals hurts all parties as a result of the penalties imposed by the payers. Because  medical and/or long term care reimbursement rates are on the decline, and cost of malpractice insurance for physicians is on the rise, many Doctors choose to send Nursing Home patients back to the hospital at the first sign of clinical instability as a precaution. This practice creates additional strain on the hospital system as many are already being penalized by CMS for the rapid rate of return and failure to maintain proper length of stays.
