Malnutrition

Malnutrition screening, education and documentation processes vary across facilities, creating opportunities to improve clinical consistency, early intervention and reimbursement optimization. 

Implement the Morrison Malnutrition Toolkit (MMT), a structured clinical nutrition support program, in partnership with UofL Health’s clinical nutrition team to strengthen malnutrition identification, intervention and documentation practices.

This supports UofL Health’s clinical nutrition and community health goals by enabling earlier identification and intervention for malnutrition, improving patient outcomes, strengthening documentation performance and supporting improved reimbursement capture and reduced nutrition-related risk across the continuum of care.
