1.15.2018 Transitions of Care The criteria for TRC Notification of Inpatient Admission states that notification should occur on the day of admission or the following day. However, one bullet states that evidence of tests ordered by the PCP during the inpatient stay is valid, as well. If a member stays in the hospital for 10 days, and there is no evidence of the PCP ordering tests until day 4 of the stay, it is this compliant for the indicator?

No. To be compliant for the indicator, documentation that the PCP/care provider ordered tests/ treatment to occur during the inpatient stay must be documented on the day of admission or on the following day. Documentation on day 4 does not count.
