What this paper is

This is a service description of how one New York health system redesigned postacute care pathways during the early COVID-19 surge. It describes electronic consultations, discharge criteria, rehabilitation and skilled nursing adjustments, and final discharge counts, but it does not report methods, outcomes, or a comparison, so there is no evidence here to change practice.
