Transfer OASIS is required when a patient is transferred to an inpatient facility.

Transfer OASIS is completed to relay the patient’s current status and care needs to the receiving inpatient facility, ensuring a safe and seamless transition. CMS requires this form when a patient moves from home health to an inpatient setting so the inpatient team has the necessary information to continue appropriate skilled services and manage the patient’s condition without gaps in care. It isn’t used for transfers to outpatient clinics and it isn’t optional. Therefore, this form is required specifically for transfers to inpatient facilities.
