STRAIGHT LINE CONNECT Information

STRAIGHT LINE is a newly released and transformative online service that instructs assisted living communities how to minimize avoidable hospital re-admissions. This concise program of highly selected, indispensable knowledge is intuitive and easily available as 3 core teaching modules with downloadable text. A clever, modern, and effective presentation of the STRAIGHT LINE program allows easy access whenever, where ever, and as often as desired. The foundation for STRAIGHT LINE is a combination of the medical literature, individual reports and success stories, and the extensive clinical experience of Dr. Steven Fuller whose commitment to medicine includes more than 25 years of direct patient care. Dr. Fuller has discharged thousands of patients from hospitals and has provided medical care to thousands of patients discharged from hospitals in a wide variety of community-based settings. He knows what works! Since 2013, hospitals have faced considerable financial penalties when certain Medicare patients they discharge are avoidably re-admitted within 30 days. Soon, similar penalties for skilled nursing facilities are slated. This is leading to referral networks whose membership is restricted to those post-acute care providers that can demonstrate superior outcomes. Assisted living communities who adapt a program supporting a reduction in avoidable hospital re-admissions will have a distinct advantage to being included in these networks. To engage the STRAIGHT LINE program and slash avoidable re-admissions in your assisted living community, visit www.straightlineconnect.com. Dr. Steven Fuller is a triple board certified physician/entrepreneur whose professional focus is to enhance the healthcare of senior housing residents. He supports an Integrated Care model of senior housing that includes 3 equal and interactive team members: real estate, hospitality, and healthcare.
