Spanish term or phrase: atención extra-hospitalaria

Habla de un programa de computadora que maneja los procesos de un hospital, como información sobre internaciones, diagnósticos, etc., y que también "contempla la atención extra-hospitalaria". Any ideas? Thanks!

outpatient care/home care

Explanation:
This is what I would put, as there is not quite enough context to know what exactly they mean.

outside hospital care

Explanation:
Más que outpatient creo que se refiere al servicio médico que se da fuera de los hospitales; por ejemplo si hay un accidente en una carretera, las ambulancias que asisten al hecho tienen que estar equipadas y las condiciones tienen que ser las adecuadas para poder llevar a cabo el servicio que esa.

contexto en español: " Objetivo y Ámbito de Aplicación
La presente normativa tiene como objetivo especificar las condiciones y
requisitos que deben cumplir los Servicios de Atención en Extra hospitalaria, para
garantizar que el servicio ofrecido cumpla con los requisitos de calidad, seguridad,
equidad, igualdad y accesibilidad, para ser habilitados por el Ministerio de Salud.
Su ámbito de aplicación es nacional y aplica para los Servicios de Atención
Extra-hospitalaria, públicos, privados o mixtos, fijos y ambulantes. Incluye las
Ambulancias o unidades móviles de Soporte Avanzado Tipo A, terrestres, aéreas,
acuáticas y las Bases o Centros de Despacho. No incluye vehículos para traslado de
cadáveres. "

contexto en inglés: "The Health Minister, Tony Abbott, has previously flagged moves to extend private cover to outside hospital care in such areas as cancer chemotherapy, dialysis and "hospital in the home" services for the frail and elderly." de http://www.smh.com.au/news/health-insurance/private-cover-to...

extra-hospital care

Explanation:
not to be confused with "extra hospital care"!

The simple solution: when extra-hospital care can cover a multitude of things. No need to try to narrow the translation down, any more than the source text, ie, it refers to ANY health-related care that's administered outside the hospital environment:
