SOLVED4144

To ensure that Medicare patients are receiving the appropriate care at the appropriate level, each inpatient admission must meet the SI/IS criteria. Basically, they want to know if the patient could have been treated as an outpatient, or in another (cheaper!) setting. Severity of Illness (SI): What brought the patient to the hospital? Does the patient’s condition require stay in ACUTE CARE setting? WHY? Has the patient FAILED outpatient treatment? Intensity of Service (IS): What are we doing for the patient that requires an ACUTE CARE setting? Can treatment safely be performed in an Alternate Level Of Care (ALOC)?
