The PACIO (Post-Acute Care InterOperability) Project is all about care coordination – Forty-five percent of Medicare patients who leave hospitals go into some kind of post-acute care. Post-acute care accounts for $74 billion in Medicare payments annually, so it is a large part of our healthcare system. Post-acute care patients are typically very complex and have multiple transitions in their healthcare journey.

When a person transitions between healthcare settings, including ambulatory care, acute care, long-term post-acute care (LTPAC), and home- and community-based services (HCBS) – their care is often fragmented and can lead to poor health outcomes, increased burden, and increased costs. Interoperable health information exchange has the potential to improve patient and provider communications and supports access to longitudinal health information that enables improved efficiencies, improved quality of care, and improved health outcomes. Data should be usable across the continuum of care, and beyond the traditional healthcare system – into the community.
