Responsibility for Inpatient Concurrent Review and Transfer for Transplant Evaluation
Provider Type
- Physicians
- Participating Physician Groups (PPG)
- Hospitals
- Ancillary
For members in need of an evaluation for transplant eligibility, responsibility for the transfer and continued concurrent review remain with the delegated entity until such time as a transplant event occurs or the member no longer requires an inpatient level of care and can be safely discharged. The financial risk upon transfer to a transplant facility will follow the standard Division of Financial Responsibility for inpatient admissions up to the day of transplant, when Health Net takes over risk for the transplant.
If, during the continued stay, the transplant occurs, the member’s case is transitioned to Health Net’s concurrent review team on the day of the transplant. Until that happens, the delegated entity maintains its concurrent review responsibilities even if the member is evaluated for transplant eligibility during that time.
