Transfer of Patients. In the event any patient of either facility is deemed by that facility (the “Transferring Facility”) as requiring the services of the other facility (the “Receiving Facility”) and the transfer is deemed medically appropriate, a member of the nursing staff of the Transferring Facility or the patient’s attending physician will contact the admitting office or Emergency Department of the Receiving Facility to arrange for appropriate treatment as contemplated herein. All transfers between the facilities shall be made in accordance with applicable federal and state laws and regulations, the standards of the Joint Commission and any other applicable accrediting bodies, and reasonable policies and procedures of the facilities. Neither the decision to transfer a patient nor the decision to not accept a request to transfer a patient shall be predicated upon arbitrary, capricious, or unreasonable discrimination or based upon the patient’s inability to pay for services rendered by either facility. The Receiving Facility’s responsibility for the patient’s care shall begin when the patient is admitted to the Receiving Facility.

Transfer of Patients. The transferring facility is responsible for tracking the destination of all patients transferred out. The transferring facility is responsible for notifying both the patient’s family or guardian and the patient’s attending or personal physician of the situation. (In the event a patient is routed to a different facility than originally assigned, the final receiving facility will notify the original transferring facility of the change. This will help ensure proper patient tracking.) [If a recipient facility is informed by the transporters that the patient’s destination was altered during transfer to different facility than the information provided to the transferring facility, the receiving facility should contact the transferring facility in order to aid in reducing potential problems when tracking their patients.]
