How does the department define a transfer case?

A transfer case is defined as an injured worker's admission to another acute care hospital within seven days of that worker's previous discharge. All bills for transfer cases will be subject to review by the department and payment will be determined based on that analysis. The transferring hospital may qualify for high and low outlier status.
