Continuity of Care Document

What Is a Continuity of Care Document (CCD)?

A Continuity of Care Document (CCD) is a standardized electronic snapshot of your essential health information. It's designed to be easily shared between different doctors and facilities to ensure seamless care coordination.

Why It Matters

A CCD prevents dangerous medical errors by making sure every provider has your up-to-date diagnoses, medications, and allergies. It is crucial for safe care transitions, like when you are discharged from a hospital to a rehabilitation facility.
