Community Hospitals Sample Clauses

Community Hospitals. Given the goal of ensuring that consumers are hospitalized as close to their home community as possible, community hospitals with psychiatric units are the first level of hospitalization response. The community hospitals are for short-term admissions, generally 30 days or less. OAMHS, through the Community Services Network memorandum of agreement and the amendment to the MaineCare provider agreement, described below, will ensure that hospitals have a no-reject policy for providing coverage to consumers in their community service network areas. The crisis provider must document data on consumers who are denied admission to a hospital or crisis stabilization unit that has available beds. The data must include reasons for rejection. This data will be provided to the Community Service Networks for review and action in accordance with their quality improvement functions. This data also must be submitted to OAMHS for contract performance reviews. The crisis provider must also convene a meeting of the rapid response team to assist consumers who are expected to be in the emergency department for more than eight hours. The rapid response protocol that is currently being used describes the responsibilities for the crisis provider in more detail (Attachment 2).
