Admission requirements
What this facility needs to accept a transfer — facility-stated; information, not patient eligibility
No facility-stated requirements on file yet. The typical set for this setting is shown below as reference — confirm with the facility.
Where this comes from
Sources: VA
Identity Unknown · retrieved 2026-08-01 · steward VA / HIFLD
Location not yet independently verified.
Coverage
Coverage unknown — no current network data (decays fast; would be corrected by referral outcomes).
Plan-level acceptance
As-filed network listings — verify current acceptance
No plan-level acceptance on file. Public plan data exists only for Medi-Cal managed care (DHCS) today — commercial & Medicare Advantage acceptance has no reliable public source, so verify with the facility or plan rather than assume.
Estimated out-of-pocket
Public Medicare/Medi-Cal cost-sharing · structure, not a quote
VA/federal facilities use VA benefits — patient cost depends on VA eligibility and priority group, not Medicare/Medi-Cal cost-sharing.
No provider-reported self-pay or financial-assistance info yet (no public source — collected via the provider portal).
Capacity
Time-stamped signal, never a guarantee
No live capacity signal (federation mocked in P0).
Referral & prior authorization
Track the auth that gates admission — then record the outcome
A case-manager click writes a Submission (the legally load-bearing record). Recording the outcome then corrects the registry from a real episode.
Next steps
Hospital teams: referrals are sent from your discharge platform — this record syncs to it via FHIR.
