Minnesota Community Healthcare Network

In partnership with a major Healthcare system in Minnesota, mchn implements an enhanced care transitions program for patients discharged from inpatient psychiatric units, and for patients with serious mental illness who are admitted to the emergency rooms at their hospitals throughout the twin cities. The goal of the program is to ensure a smooth transition to Community supports, improve success with discharge plans and medication compliance, and to avoid hospital readmissions. In 2022, the program was expanded to accept primary care provider referrals for patients at risk of a mental health crisis, which increased the volume of patients served.
