Cardiac Event Discharge from MD Anderson
World's largest cancer center, located in the Texas Medical Center
Okay, so first things first — if you're reading this, the MD Anderson discharge planner just told you something that changed your week. You have a small window to find the right next setting for your loved one. SeniorIQ matches your situation to the three Houston communities that fit, with bed availability confirmed, in under four hours. Free for your family. Free for MD Anderson. Texas Chapter 121 disclosure included.
Clinical context
Post-cardiac event seniors face a binary decision: home with home health support, or assisted living with elevated cardiac monitoring. Risk factors that push toward ALF: living alone, inconsistent medication adherence, prior hospitalizations, or mobility decline.
The 4-hour SLA
- Hour 0: MD Anderson discharge planner submits a PHI-free intake (initials only, care level, mobility, target window).
- Hour 1: SeniorIQ's match engine runs against the live HHSC-licensed community registry.
- Hour 2-3: Real-time bed-availability check via email and phone.
- Hour 4: Top-3 verified matches delivered to the discharge planner. Texas Chapter 121 disclosure auto-generated for the family.

- 4Confirm vital sign monitoring frequency
- 5Check coordination with the hospital's cardiology follow-up clinic
