Post-Acute Care

IPC practices in a broad range of facility types including acute care hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, nursing homes, assisted living facilities, rehabilitation hospitals, psychiatric hospitals and long term acute care hospitals. This enables IPC to provide a true continuum of care to our patients in the markets we serve. The overriding goal is to improve the quality of patient care and patient satisfaction while generating operational efficiencies and cost savings throughout the inpatient care delivery system.

Safe and effective transition of the discharged inpatient to a primary care physician is central to the IPC philosophy. Through our IPC-Link® information management system, patient admission and discharge notifications are automatically faxed to the patient's primary care physician and/or specialist. IPC operates its own Discharge Call Center, which attempts to contact every patient within 72 hours of discharge to home to discuss and document the patient's condition and successful transition back to outpatient care. Our Discharge Call Center staff will intervene on the patient's behalf if assistance is warranted, resulting in improved outcomes and increased patient satisfaction.
