The Transitional Care Services (TCS) program ensures a smooth transition from one setting to another and reduces re-hospitalization risks and other potentially adverse events. Care Transition Interventions are focused on coaching the member and the member’s support system during the inpatient stay and the immediate post-discharge period to ensure timely, safe, and appropriate medical care in the most efficient and cost-effective manner. Knowledge of internal and external processes surrounding the inpatient and post-discharge stay is essential in navigating the health care continuum and addressing barriers to post-discharge success for the member.
