An interfacility transfer occurs if the individual is transferred from one Medicaid certified swing bed or nursing facility to another, with or without an intervening hospital stay. An interfacility transfer is not subject to a preadmission screening and resident review. If an individual transfers from a Medicaid certified swing bed or nursing facility to a hospital, or to another Medicaid certified swing bed or nursing facility, the transferring facility is responsible for ensuring that copies of the individual's preadmission screening and resident review findings accompany the individual.
