The BCAT® Approach
Backed by science, easy to use, impactful results
The BCAT® Approach will provide your acute care organization with a standardized, comprehensive care delivery model to rapidly identify persons living with cognitive impairment, and to assess these patients in time to inform safe, effective discharge planning.
Assessment Tools for Professionals
Discharge decisions made in acute care ripple through the entire post-acute journey and cognition is one of the strongest predictors of whether that transition succeeds. The BCAT® cognitive ecosystem gives hospital teams rapid, objective measures of cognitive status and practical judgment, fast enough for acute-care workflows and rigorous enough to inform real discharge decisions. Tools like the BCAT®, BCAT®-Short Form, and Mansbach Hazard Index (MHI) add fast, targeted risk and caregiver burden data that further sharpens discharge planning within acute-care time constraints.
Intervention Tools and Clinical Programs for Providers
BCAT® equips the interprofessional team with the Digital Cognitive Exercise Suite which are evidence-based exercises targeting memory, attention, executive function, visuospatial reasoning, and language. Given the shortened length of stay typical of acute care, only brief, targeted treatment is appropriate and necessary; the Suite lets clinicians select short, high-yield exercises that meet a patient's most pressing cognitive needs without disrupting acute-care workflows.
BCAT® Advantages and ROI
For hospitals, the BCAT® ecosystem supports lower readmission risk and smoother handoffs to post-acute partners - many of whom are already using the same BCAT® ecosystem, creating continuity of cognitive data across the full care journey and strengthening referral relationships.
