Frequently Asked Questions About How SLINQ Works

How long does it take to place a patient through SLINQ?

SLINQ starts facility outreach the moment a case is created: matching facilities are notified instantly and respond inside time-boxed response windows. Placements that traditionally take days of phone calls can often be resolved the same day.

What happens after a discharge planner creates a placement case?

SLINQ matching engine instantly identifies facilities that meet the patient's care requirements, budget, and location preferences. Matching facilities receive real-time notifications and can respond with availability and acceptance in one click.

How does SLINQ verify facility credentials?

Every facility on SLINQ undergoes license verification against California DSS and DHCS databases, ownership confirmation, and capability review before appearing in search results. Verified facilities display a trust badge on their profile.

Can SLINQ integrate with hospital EHR systems?

Yes. SLINQ offers a FHIR R4 compatible API for seamless integration with hospital Electronic Health Record systems, enabling direct import and export of patient data while maintaining HIPAA compliance.
