Implement KeyHIE Transform Tool in LTPAC and Home Health Settings

Description
Work with Skilled Nursing Facilities, other Long Term Post Acute Care Facilities, and Home Health Organizations to transform data from Minimum Data Set (MDS) and Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS) documents into C-CDA documents.  The C-CDA documents are then sent to the Community Health Record for all users to view.  This initiative will improve transitions of care, especially during unplanned visits to an Emergency Department (ED) from a LTPAC or Home Health setting, enabling ED personnel to understand the background as to why he/she was in the LTPAC or Home Health setting and the recent activity which occurred in that environment.
