WHAT IS MEDICAL RESPITE
Medical Respite is a program that provides healthcare providers with a secure location for patients experiencing homelessness to be discharged when they no longer need to be hospitalized but still have to be treated for an illness or disability. The idea was driven by widespread "inadequate discharge" events; the implementation of penalties under the Affordable Care Act to avoid re-hospitalization within 30 days; and the extension of Medicaid that opened a new financing source in participating states.
These facilities enable people to continue their recovery and receive treatment, while case managers enable them to have access to primary care, mental health services, and other social services such as transportation, food, and housing.
Medical Respite saves taxpayers dollars which costs far less than prolonged hospital stays and outcomes in less hospital re-admission. Patients served will also discover permanent homes more probable.
