Congratulations! Bamboo Health is about to get even easier to incorporate into your care management workflows.
What to Expect When Your Facility Switches to Automation:
- All admissions and discharges will automatically carry over to Bamboo Health from your electronic health record (EHR).
- You will no longer be able to manually update data in Bamboo Health, with the following exception:
- You still will need to manually update patient events to apply the 3-Day Waiver flag (as applicable)
- For facilities integrated with PointClickCare, you will be able to manually edit the setting (skilled, long-term care, etc.) for open admissions
Areas in Progress:
- Admitted from, discharged to, and level of care data is not consistently sent from post-acute EHRs to Bamboo Health; these fields may be blank in Pings after automation go-live.
- Medical Leaves of Absence are not consistently processed in the data Bamboo Health receives from post-acute vendors.
- Health insurance number does not render for any facilities that have automated their use of Bamboo Health
- Insurer information will render as either Medicare, Medicaid, Commercial, or Self-Pay.
