Many of our ACO partners have provided Bamboo Health with a list of facilities participating in their approved 3DW networks. If you are a member of such a network and your ACO is using Bamboo Health, you can indicate when patients are admitted to your facility under the 3DW. You will only be able to do so for patients who match the ACOs with whom your facility has a 3DW relationship.

3DW: Overview
Indicating a 3-day waiver encounter will provide your ACO partner(s) with equal transparency on those patients admitted to your facility under the waiver. It will also allow you to report specifically on your 3DW patient events through the Bamboo Health export feature.

For facilities manually entering patient events into Bamboo Health: when entering admissions, you will be prompted to specify whether a patient's encounter occurred under the 3DW.
For facilities that have integrated another EHR with Bamboo: after the admission has carried over from your EHR to Bamboo Health, you can add the 3DW indicator, by clicking the edit pencil on the patient card and selecting Edit from the dropdown menu.
