Abstract
By charting the steps of implementation, process maps can both reveal the complexity of the application of the Best Practices as well as set the course for implementation. There are multiple nuances in implementing the Best Practices in part because diverse platforms exist for information transfers: paper SNF to paper primary care systems, paper SNF to electronic primary care systems, electronic SNF to paper primary care systems, and electronic SNF to electronic primary care systems, as well as a variety of hybrid systems. This presentation will present process maps for fluid application of the Best Practices in both the primary care and the nursing facility arenas.
