• Multidisciplinary Coordination: Manage all facets of care coordination at both the intra‑hospital and inter‑hospital levels, working closely with an integrated health team.
• Transitional Planning: Design and execute complex discharge and transitional care plans, including arranging necessary aftercare, leading patient/caregiver education, and managing commercial payer involvement.
• High‑Risk Intervention: Perform root‑cause analysis for high‑utilizer patient populations to deploy preventative strategies and reduce readmission rates.
• Utilization Review (UR): Conduct thorough clinical reviews using established guidelines (such as Milliman or InterQual) to manage commercial payer reviews, disposition determination, retro/self‑audits, and admission clinical assessments.
• Geriatric Advocacy: Collaborate across specialties to evaluate the specific needs and safe discharge pathways for geriatric patients across inpatient floors, the Emergency Department, and surgical outpatient settings.
• Quality & Performance: Actively document care milestones per department compliance standards and participate in targeted performance improvement activities.
