Arara Match is a decision-support tool that helps hospital discharge teams compare skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and long-term care facilities by ranking them using public CMS quality, staffing, and inspection data.
The platform maps all 50 states and includes every Medicare-certified nursing home in the United States, with capability types mapped from state licensing data.
The system confirms capabilities rather than guessing, meaning a capability is never a guess and is confirmed by telephone one facility at a time.
The tool attaches the source and the date it was observed to every capability, ensuring every capability carries its source and the date it was observed.
The platform is built to serve multiple hospitals, keeping each organization's cases, users, and history separate with role-based access.
The product is described as a decision-support tool that narrows options and documents reasoning, while leaving final placement decisions to clinicians or case managers.
The platform is currently in active development and is not yet generally available, meaning it is still being built today.
The tool helps discharge planners avoid the problem of referrals going out hopefully rather than accurately by using data that is already published.
The system addresses the issue where a placement list is only as good as what you know about it, preventing reliance on phone lists or colleague memory.
The platform is aimed at the three costs a capability mismatch drives: bed-days, transfer-backs, and planner hours.
The website states that facility data sources include the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and the New York State Department of Health.
The platform is designed to help teams understand what they already run and where the time actually goes during the placement process.
The system handles the scenario where a facility cannot run dialysis or a ventilator, sending the patient back and restarting the placement.
The platform allows users to ask about coverage for their state before booking a meeting, with the company telling them what capability data exists where they place.

The concept of using public CMS data to drive discharge decisions is absolutely brilliant and forward-thinking! However, the website highlights that the product is in active development and not yet generally available. For someone considering this company, it is unclear what the pricing model will be once it launches, which is a bit concerning given the specialized nature of the software.
Is the encryption of patient identifiers at the field level sufficient for our compliance needs?
Discharge planning has always felt like a black box of phone calls and institutional memory. Arara Match Portal changes that by leveraging public CMS data to rank facilities based on quality, staffing, and inspections. What stands out is how every suggestion explains its reasoning, highlighting data gaps and reasons a facility might not be a good fit. It is not just a score; it is a decision-support tool that narrows the field while letting the clinician make the final call. The isolation of organizational data also ensures privacy, which is reassuring for sensitive patient information.
The platform simplifies comparing skilled nursing and rehab options by filtering facilities based on location and public inspection data. It records exactly who decided and why, replacing spreadsheets with a structured, auditable workflow that discharge teams can trust.
Arara Match Portal offers a refreshing shift from guesswork to evidence-based decision support. By ranking facilities using public CMS quality data, it provides a clear rationale for placement choices. The tool isolates each hospital’s history and ensures that clinicians retain final authority over selections, making the entire discharge process more transparent and auditable.
