AdmitScore™ for skilled nursing admissions teams
Built to save your DON about 5 hours a week of referral-packet review.
AdmitScore reads each hospital referral packet and lists the questions your team should check. Each item shows the quote and page it came from, so your DON starts from the facts.
Pilot conversations are open for SNF admissions teams. BAA signed before any PHI.
A focused review tool that sits beside your current systems. It is not an EHR, CRM, bed board, or payer-approval tool.
Long packets take time to read, and the facts in them can disagree
We estimate your DON spends about 45 minutes on the clinical review of one hospital referral packet: discharge summary, medication list, therapy notes, payer face sheet. At about 10 referrals a week, that is close to a full working day. See how we estimate this. The examples below come from a made-up packet in the sample report.
Three examples from one made-up packet
- The same fact, stated twice. The packet gives a current weight of 412 lb on page 2 and 436 lb on page 5.
- A fact the packet leaves out. It never documents a primary diagnosis. The review lists it as “not documented in the packet reviewed,” so staff can ask for it.
- Care needs that affect whether you can admit. Hemodialysis every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, contact precautions, and a bariatric bed and lift are all on page 2.
Six things AdmitScore looks for in a packet
Staff check each one at its source page. For more on what a review covers, see SNF admissions software and Referral packet review software.
Payer and Medicare Advantage
Shows the payer type, whether it is Medicare Advantage, and the network status, with the questions to ask the plan.
Authorization readiness
Lists what prior authorization or continued-stay review usually asks for, so staff can request it before the request goes to the plan. See Medicare Advantage authorization.
Documentation gaps
Lists missing therapy notes, skilled-need support, orders, and H&P items, the things that slow follow-up after you accept. See the MDS Section GG admissions guide.
High-cost medications and care needs
Flags high-cost medications, isolation, wounds, therapy needs, and staffing needs that could change whether you can admit.
Facts that disagree between pages
If the packet gives two different weights, authorizations, or dates, AdmitScore shows both with their pages so staff can check.
Follow-up questions
AdmitScore writes the follow-up questions for the hospital, payer, family, pharmacy, or your own clinical team.
Three steps in a review
- Intake. A signed BAA comes before any real patient data. Packets then come in through approved packet intake, set up with you for the pilot.
- AdmitScore builds the review. The system extracts payer, clinical, documentation, and medication details for staff review.
-
Your staff check and decide. Admissions, clinical, and finance
users check each item against its source page, ask follow-up questions such as
these, and record the final decision.
- Has prior authorization been approved for SNF level of care?
- Are therapy notes and skilled need documentation included?
- Are any medications carved out or unusually high cost?
- Does the facility have the staffing and services this patient needs?
One made-up packet, reviewed
On the made-up packet, the review lists a Medicare Advantage authorization “approved for the initial 7 skilled nursing days” on page 4 and tags it Conflict, because page 6 says “still pending review.” It does the same for a Cefazolin stop date of 2026-10-14 on page 3 against 2026-10-21 on page 6.
Four limits to know before you use AdmitScore
Staff verify every item and make every admission decision. AdmitScore supports admissions review and does not replace clinical, operational, payer, or legal judgment.
AI-extracted payer, authorization, and clinical details should be checked against the referral packet.
AdmitScore does not guarantee payer approval, reimbursement, or admission outcomes.
Do not submit patient records, PHI, or confidential clinical information through this website.
Ask about a 90-day pilot
A pilot is 90 days at $500 per facility per month, billed monthly, with no auto-renewal. We confirm terms in writing before kick-off.
