Review Discharge Planning Case Study below:
Scenario: The case manager has been following a patient who has been in Miami Dade College Hospital for about a month now. The patient was critical at one time but has now progressed to a point where the hospital can do little more to help the patient. The patient is going to need 24-hour nursing care, but not at a level that requires acute care hospitalization. Since the patient does not meet criteria required to remain in the hospital, the UR coordinator refers the patient to the physician advisor for review. The physician advisor agrees that the patient does not need acute care hospitalization.
