Responding to a Denial
Step 4: Assure the Facility of the Patient’s Stability
Assuming that the person is medically stable from a bleeding disorders (BD) perspective and does not have any major, active bleeds that require treatment in a hospital setting, it is important to assure the facility of the person’s medical stability. BD SUMHAC has created a template letter that you can revise and send to the facility.
Suggested language:
This person is medically stable from a bleeding disorders perspective and does not require any treatment related to their bleeding disorder that would require a hospital setting.
Would it be helpful if I got a letter from the patient treatment team to assure the facility that the patient is stable from a bleeding disorders perspective and appropriate for admission?
