Draft article. Rule-specific educational content is published with effective dates and source references once reviewed.
A safe-to-reallocate figure is calculated after protecting a minimum at the donor location. It is an upper bound on what a planner might consider, not an instruction.
Clinical appropriateness, payer requirements, authorization terms, clinician credentials, geography, schedules, client fit, documentation, and leadership approval all sit between the estimate and any real change.
