Triage hospital-to-SNF referrals so the ones that need checking come first.

Hospital packets can run dozens of pages and arrive in bursts, so the referral that needs the most checking can end up waiting behind routine ones. AdmitScoreā„¢ lists the open payer and authorization, skilled need and documentation, medication, and facility capability questions in each packet so staff can choose which to open first. It does not accept or decline referrals.

Four things the review lists in each packet

When referrals arrive faster than a team can read them, the risk is a rushed yes or a slow no. AdmitScore lists these four for each packet, in no fixed order, each item linked to its source page, so staff can verify them before the facility commits a bed.

  1. Payer and authorization

    Is the plan identified, and does the packet show what was authorized?

  2. Skilled need and documentation

    Does the documentation support the level of care being requested, and are any therapy notes or evaluations absent or incomplete?

  3. Medication

    Medications that may need pharmacy, payer, or administrator follow-up before the facility commits a bed.

  4. Facility capability

    Care needs the facility may need to plan for, flagged for facility review.

AdmitScore is not an EHR, CRM, bed board, or payer-approval tool. Facility staff verify findings and make the final call.
