With clear documentation and processes, transfer centers help set expectations and clarify communication between providers. This enables administrators and clinicians to intervene in real time when needed and retrospectively understand exactly what went wrong if a problem arises during a transfer and helps with audits and improvements so providers avoid making the same mistake.
In these ways, transfer centers reduce liability for both referring and accepting providers by quickly, safely, and efficiently employing industry best practices in the transfer process.
