Admission to Acute Inpatient Rehabilitation
Admission Criteria
Generally, doctors refer patients to us after a hospital stay. However, you have a role in choosing where you or your loved ones receive rehab care.
All referrals to Bryan inpatient rehabilitation are reviewed and approved by our rehabilitation admission coordinators and medical director or accepting physician.
Basis for Admission
- Diagnosis
- Medical condition/stability
- Rehabilitation goals
- Funding requirements
- Anticipated discharge location upon completing the rehab program
- Medical records and a personal interview with the patient and family are used to help make an admission determination*
- All admissions are discussed individually. Patients 10 years and older will be considered for admission.
* Bryan does not discriminate admissions on the basis of age, gender, culture, religion, payer source or national origin.
Appropriate Diagnosis for Admission
Some of the diagnoses considered for admission include, but are not limited to:
- Traumatic brain injury
- Amputation
- Stroke
- Patients with multiple trauma
- Partial spinal cord injuries
- Degenerative or progressive neurologic disorders
- Orthopedic fractures
Insurance
We work with many private insurance and managed care companies, Medicare, Medicaid and self-pay. Insurance coverage is verified before admission by our rehabilitation admission coordinator. Specially trained care management nurses will continue to monitor all patient activities on the unit and provide the insurance companies with needed information to maintain eligibility throughout your rehab stay.
