Community Exchange To be eligible each community exchange must: 1) Identify a lead organization as the primary point of contact; 2) Conduct a referral analysis to inform the connections needed to support exchange of care summaries at care transitions; 3) Include at least one acute care hospital and its affiliated ambulatory practices/other health services involved in care transitions; 4) Include one or more ambulatory practices not affiliated with the acute care hospital. Where possible Rural Health Clinics, and Free Medical Clinics should be part of the community; 5) Facilitate coordination with behavioral health via SCHIEx DIRECT secure messaging; and 6) Establish an expected community outcome as a result of being part of the Exchange (i.e. reductions in ER treatments, decreased readmissions, improved care transitions, improved diabetes care, etc.)
