Discharge Outreach Call Program. The Discharge Outreach Call Program assists members in understanding their post-discharge treatment plan and thereby helps prevent avoidable complications and readmissions. Within two (2) days of discharge from a Hospital, a Keystone nurse may contact a member by telephone to discuss any discharge concerns; to assess the member’s understanding of and adherence to the provider’s discharge instructions, including the timing of any follow-up appointments; to determine the member’s understandings about any medications prescribed; and to make sure any necessary arrangements for services, such as home health care, are proceeding appropriately.
