InterCommunity Health Network Coordinated Care Organization (IHN-CCO), part of Samaritan Health Plans, is tasked with delivering managed care to Oregon’s Medicaid recipients. With a focus on prevention and management of chronic conditions, each CCO is a network of physical, behavioral, and mental health providers. The state’s mandate for these organizations is to improve care by integrating behavioral, mental, and physical health; shifting from a fee-for-service to a fee-for-value payment model; focusing on social determinants of health; and decreasing medical costs.

Using both clinical and social determinants of health data will help providers identify high-risk patients, focus more on their care, even view them differently. Learn more about how IHN-CCO and its stakeholders are realizing the benefit of having comprehensive, aggregated health data to support programs such as the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Merit-Based Incentive Payment Systems, Quality Measure, and Alternative Payment Methodologies reporting, all of which require detailed and comprehensive health information.

Providers need help measuring quality outcomes as they shift to the new fee-for-value payment model; now they have data in one place.

Successful patient engagement in the on-demand economy requires a complete understanding of consumers in your market. In order to acquire this 360° view, providers must look beyond point-of-care events and examine consumer behavior, attributes, and risk.

Longitudinal engagement in healthcare is supported and accomplished by two primary systems: CRM and EHR. Integrating these two platforms gives health systems the ability to understand a consumer’s care journey both in and out of the hospital.

Consumers weigh a lot of options when selecting a provider or hospital, such as price, amenities, service, and convenience. Learn what they value most and how to provide them with meaningful messages that address their wants and needs. Expand the care continuum beyond hospital walls to inspire behavior change and improve outcomes.

In this new white paper featuring research from Gartner, we explore the longitudinal consumer journey to help solve some of the patient loyalty and engagement challenges facing healthcare organizations.
