Resource Allocation: Helps in the efficient use of healthcare resources, ensuring that patients with the greatest need receive the most intensive care. Care Coordination: Facilitates seamless transitions between different levels of care, improving overall patient outcomes. Informed Decision-Making: Empowers patients and families to make informed decisions about care options and treatment plans.
