What to measure in a 60-day admissions review pilot.
A pilot should prove whether referral packet review becomes more consistent, useful, and verifiable. It should not promise reimbursement, payer approval, denial prevention, or admission outcomes.
Track the signals that show whether admissions review improved.
The right pilot readout helps an operator decide whether AdmitScore fits the real admissions workflow. Facility staff verify each output and keep final decision-making.
Review consistency
Did staff see the same payer, medication, documentation, and care-fit categories across similar packets and shifts?
Clarification quality
Did outputs produce useful follow-up questions for case managers, payers, pharmacy, therapy, nursing, or administrators?
Verification speed
Could staff verify source-backed findings quickly enough for real admissions workflow timing?
Recurring gaps
Which referral sources, payer categories, or packet types repeatedly created missing documentation or escalation needs?
Keep pilot measurement credible.
What should a SNF admissions pilot scorecard measure?
A useful scorecard measures review consistency, clarification quality, staff verification, recurring documentation gaps, payer-risk patterns, and whether outputs fit the existing workflow.
Should a pilot scorecard promise ROI?
No. A pilot scorecard should measure observed workflow signals and staff usefulness. ROI, reimbursement, payer approval, and denial prevention should not be promised.
Can the scorecard use synthetic examples?
Yes. Public examples should use synthetic referral packets and no PHI. Live packet review requires proper agreements, permissions, and facility-specific controls.
