Admission & Discharge Assistance
TransitionRx
Simplify resident transitions from hospital to facility
TransitionRx is a pre-admission referral program that partners with hospital discharge planners and care coordinators. This partnership allows PharMerica to provide Admission Assessments, complete with medications and lower cost alternatives to review with the admitting physician, before or during the resident’s admission.
When hospital discharge planners prepare a patient for discharge, PharMerica electronically receives the resident information and medications list from the hospital several days prior to discharge. We complete the Price Forecaster Assessment, providing pricing alternatives and coverage checks, then fax it to your facility for review with the resident and the physician. TransitionRx allows you to make informed, lower cost decisions about your patients’ care.
- Designed to ease transition from hospital to facility with up to a 72 hour notice of incoming residents.
- Provides medications list and alternative recommendations to help lower costs.
- No cost to the facility and getting started is easy.
DischargeRx
Assure continuity of medications for your residents after discharge
Discharge planning is not complete without assuring your resident has the medications they need to continue their care at home. Through DischargeRx, PharMerica handles all the details so your residents can take home the medications they need at discharge, giving your residents one less task to worry about.
DischargeRx fits seamlessly into your current discharge planning process, and we handle billing the resident’s insurance plan.
For each resident in your facility scheduled for discharge:
- We send an order form with the resident’s current medications, which you can just fax back to us.
- Send medications to facility in specially packaged bag back to you to include with your patient’s discharge packet.
- Follow up directly with the resident to ensure they are taking medications and have a follow up appointment with their physician.
