Primary PartnerCare Using Alerts for Patient Care
ACO Raises Quality of Care, Drives Down Costs
Healthix real-time Clinical Alerts serve as an immediate source for patient information. Primary PartnerCare®, a Medicare Shared Savings Program ACO and Managed Services Organization, receives alerts whenever their patients are admitted to or discharged from a hospital and other facilities. These notifications help fulfill the triple aim of improved care, patient satisfaction and reduced costs.
“Healthix has been very helpful in improving the care of the patient on a daily basis. Alerts have also helped to reduce admissions and readmissions to hospitals,” stated Harry Jacob, MD, Chief Executive Medical Officer.
With alerts conveniently accessible via cell phones or other devices, physicians can contact patients or providers and determine the right intervention at the right time.
