Standard 6:
Track and Coordinate Care

Element C: Coordinate with Facilities and Manage Care Transitions

1. Clinics should provide patient education on proper use of emergency care to help guide patients towards more consistent, non-institutional providers for routine health care needs.

2. Clinics should provide patients with information on alternative providers to the Emergency Room for non-emergent care.

3. Clinics should have a process in place to coordinate care transitions to other primary care providers if a change in the patient’s financial or insurance coverage circumstances change.

​4. Clinics should inquire and note in the patient chart/electronic health record if a patient has been treated in a hospital, emergency room or any other provider since the patient’s last visit to the clinic.
