    "description": "A bundle of services that manages a patient’s move from a hospital, skilled-nursing facility, or similar setting back to the community over the 30 days after discharge, for a case of moderate complexity — for example, coordinating follow-up after a hip-fracture repair with a few manageable chronic conditions. It requires an interactive contact (phone, in-person, or telehealth) within 2 business days of discharge and a face-to-face office visit within 14 calendar days.",
