N.M. Admin. Code § 8.371.9.9 - TRANSFER
A. A person may be
transferred to another ICF/MR operated by the same entity, or an ICF/MR that
operates independent of the ICF/MR where the person currently resides without
referral through the central registry, provided:
(1) the person's interdisciplinary team
recommends the transfer;
(2) the
person's transfer is based on the person's freedom of choice of providers;
and
(3) the receiving ICF/MR has
identified a vacancy.
B.
An ICF/MR may transfer a person temporarily to a psychiatric acute care
hospital, or temporarily to a nursing facility for care following a hospital
stay. Persons returning to the ICF/MR under these conditions will be classified
a "readmission" and will not be subject to pre-screening by the HCA.
C. Persons receiving services from an ICF/MR
may be transferred to a home and communitybased waiver program provided the
person has been allocated to the program by the HCA in accordance with central
registry policies and procedures.
D. The ICF/MR shall provide a complete copy
of the person's medical and service records, including assessments required for
individual program planning to the ICF/MR or community to which the person is
transferred.
