Refer a Patient
BridgeCare's Hospital to Home clinic provides temporary primary care for patients leaving the hospital or other inpatient settings. All our appointments are done via telehealth (phone or virtual call), so we can see patients faster and work to bridge any gaps in their care from the moment they leave the hospital.
For further assistance, contact us directly at 517-300-0716.

Referral Process
Online Referrals
-
If a patient agrees to temporary primary care services through BridgeCare, their first follow-up appointment can be scheduled using our online scheduler (appointment must be within 7 days of discharge). A care manager may schedule this appointment on behalf of the patient, but the patient must be made aware of BridgeCare's services.
-
A face sheet and discharge summary must be faxed to our office (517-879-0374) for the referral to be complete.
-
Once all paperwork is in place, our office will contact the patient and referral sender to confirm the appointment.
