Readmission after Medical Absence

When a member who was transferred for treatment to an acute inpatient hospital no longer needs acute inpatient hospital care but does meet the level-of-care criteria in 130 CMR 435.409(B) or 435.410(B), the chronic disease or rehabilitation hospital from which the member was transferred must readmit the member to the first available bed, in accordance with admission screening requirements (see 130 CMR 435.408).
