- Identify at-risk patients and prevent readmissions with real-time status updates.
- Optimize skilled nursing length of stay by identifying patients ready for discharge.
- Reduce time spent with partners on patient follow up and collection of performance data.
- Easily identify patients, groups and diagnoses driving LOS, readmissions, and other quality metrics.
- Establish quality improvement plans and measure facility performance and trends over time.
Identify and manage at-risk patients in post-acute care settings.
When a patient is discharged to a post-acute care setting, you lose visibility into their condition and have limited ability to influence their care. PAC Network Management allows health systems, Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), and other risk bearing organizations to monitor their post-acute population, identify patients of concern, and manage network performance as a whole.
What you can expect with PAC Network Management?
Monitor and manage patients across your care ecosystem
Arm physicians and case managers with patient information and key insights as they move to post-acute care. Detailed chart-level patient data is shared across the care ecosystem directly from the hospital or skilled nursing EHR, and put at caregiver fingertips for timely action. Real-time hospital readmission risk scores help zero in on patients requiring attention, allowing for proactive care collaboration between acute and post-acute settings.
Measure facility and network performance
Network scorecards streamline the manual process of collecting facility metrics and understanding network wide performance. Have data-driven performance management conversations with post-acute network partners using accurate, timely data instead of relying solely on CMS or claims data.
Optimize care transitions
Automating the transition handoff of medications and orders between care settings ensures consistency and helps to reduce readmissions. In the event of a transfer back to the hospital, ED clinicians receive the latest labs and medications, within EPIC and Cerner EHRs, ahead of the patient’s arrival, helping to stabilize patients faster. Providing the right information to case managers, as well as supporting services, when they need it, further ensures a successful and safe transition.
