Room change and transfer

A resident can change room or move from MR to MRS (or the other way around) during their stay. Resthome handles the transition cleanly: billing is split at the right date, without you having to redo an admission.

Changing room

For a simple room change (same type of care):

  1. On the resident’s stay, use the Change room action.

  2. Enter the new room and the date/time of the change.

  3. Validate.

Resthome closes billing for the old room on that date and opens billing for the new one, at the corresponding rate.

No new admission

A room change is not a new admission: the INAMI intervention (the flat rate) stays continuous, there is no new agreement to request. Only the accommodation portion is split across the two rates.

MR ↔ MRS transfer

Moving from one type of care to the other (MR ↔ MRS) is an internal transfer:

  1. On the stay, use the Internal transfer action.

  2. Enter the date/time of the transfer and the new type of care.

  3. Validate.

Resthome splits billing at the transfer date and updates the flat rate according to the new type. Where applicable, it prepares the corresponding eHealth notification.

Billing follows automatically

After a room change or a transfer, you have nothing to recalculate by hand: each segment is billed at its own rate, and the flat rate continues without interruption.
