The Banner – University Family Care/ALTCS Transitional program is for current ALTCS members whose condition has improved. These members do not need care at a Nursing Facility (NF) or Intermediate Care Facility (ICF). These members still need some long-term care services. Members qualify to get other ALTCS services that are medically needed.
ALTCS Transitional members may have a short stay in a NF or ICF if the medical condition gets worse for a short time. The member may have up to 90 straight days of care at any one admission if medically needed.
