Contact UsWhat TEAM Program
Requires of Your Hospital
30-Day Episode Accountability
Participating hospitals bear 30-day episode accountability for all costs from surgery through 30 days for 5 surgeries — joint replacement, hip fracture, spinal fusion, CABG & major bowel.
Performance & Reconciliation
Performance on both cost, quality and a mandatory primary care referral can result in up to a ±20% reconciliation payment based on the track when the program is fully implemented.
How Magister Health Supports
TEAM Program Success
Seamlessly Outsourced - White Labeled
Nurse-led 30 day Care Management Program delivered via an intelligent AI Command Center — offering real-time monitoring, proactive interventions, and uninterrupted support tailored to every patient's post-discharge needs.
Care Transitions
AI-powered coordination seamlessly bridges the hospital-to-home transition — the highest-risk period for avoidable readmissions — while ensuring patients receive care in the most appropriate setting.
Primary Care Referrals
Automated referral workflows fulfill TEAM's mandatory primary care connection requirement, supporting accountable care relationships.
Comprehensive Care Management
The personalized program integrates all aspects of post-discharge care: monitoring, coordination, patient education, escalation protocols, and outcome tracking.
The Cost of Doing Nothing
Failing to manage post-acute care under the TEAM program exposes hospitals to significant financial penalties and inefficiencies.
Average cost of a single readmission in a TEAM episode
Of mandatory TEAM hospitals already underperforming top-quartile benchmarks
Average post-acute care utilization rate — a top driver of excess episode spend
Of pre/post-surgical coordination time lost to manual admin tasks
Potential savings per episode by shifting IRF to home-based care
Average SNF length of stay (days) — top quartile is under 24.9
Financial Risk Under TEAM Program
If episode costs exceed CMS target prices, hospitals owe money back. Track 3 carries up to 20% downside risk per episode. With readmissions averaging $15,100 and orthopedics comprising ~85% of episodes, care coordination is no longer optional — it's your margin strategy.
