Telehealth Transitional Care in Texas and Oklahoma

Strengthening Discharge Safety & Reducing Readmission Risk

Advanced Practice Health Connect (APHC) partners with hospitals across Texas and Oklahoma to deliver structured telehealth transitional care during the most vulnerable phase of recovery, the 30-day post-discharge window.

Board-certified advanced practice providers.
Provider-led virtual oversight.
Designed for high-risk discharges.

The Post-Discharge Risk Window Impacts Hospital Performance

• Up to 1 in 5 Medicare patients are readmitted within 30 days
• Nearly 34% of readmissions are considered potentially preventable
• Medication discrepancies affect up to 50% of discharged patients
• Respiratory and chronic disease patients carry elevated utilization risk

For hospitals operating under value-based reimbursement models, transitional breakdowns directly affect:

• • Readmission penalties
  • Quality metrics
  • Length-of-stay optimization strategies
  • Total cost of care
  • CMS performance benchmarks

Discharge planning alone is not enough.
Structured provider oversight during transition is critical.

Process

Designed to Integrate Into Your Discharge Workflow

Our model is built for hospital operations not to disrupt them.

Referral Process:

• Referral submitted at discharge
• Patient contacted within 24 hours
• Telehealth provider evaluation scheduled
• Ongoing virtual oversight during transition

We function as a provider-level extension of your discharge plan.
