What do Critical Access Hospitals do?
Critical Access Hospitals (CAHs) provide essential acute care, emergency services, and outpatient care to rural communities, aiming to reduce financial vulnerability and improve access to healthcare where it might otherwise be unavailable.
They have a limited number of acute care beds (fewer than 25) and a short average inpatient stay (no more than 96 hours).
CAHs also offer 24-hour emergency services and can use “swing beds” for post-acute care, similar to those in skilled nursing facilities.
Core functions
Acute care: Provide necessary inpatient services for illnesses or injuries in rural areas.
Emergency services: Provide 24/7 emergency care for urgent medical needs.
Outpatient services: Deliver care for conditions that don’t require hospitalization.
Swing beds: Allow hospitals to use beds for both acute and post-acute, skilled nursing-level care, helping facilities meet fluctuating demand and generate revenue.
Aspects
Rural location: Must be located in a rural area, often more than 35 miles from another hospital.
Limited beds: Have a maximum of 25 acute care inpatient beds.
Short stays: Patients have an average inpatient stay of 96 hours or less.
How they operate
Community focus: Engages with their communities to meet local health needs and coordinates care with urban health systems.
Staffing: Employs both physicians and physician extenders, such as nurse practitioners and physician assistants.
Medicare reimbursement: Operates under different Medicare rules and is reimbursed under a cost-plus model, which supports financial stability.
