Generating the CCD (Continuity of Care Document)

The Continuity of Care Document (CCD) is a core dataset of the most pertinent administrative, demographic, and clinical information about a resident's healthcare.

The primary use for the CCD is to provide one document with consolidated data for a specific resident to support the continuity of care across the healthcare spectrum. You can create and save a CCD in PDF or XML file format.

Note

Race, Ethnicity, Primary Language, and a Contact must be in the resident chart to generate the CCD. You must also have a complete address in Billing > Facility Configuration.
