Center of Excellence
Imagine one location that houses numerous medical experts, who collaborate to improve patient health and all work with the same health plans. These same medical experts thrive on a system of best practices, ongoing trainings and pay-for-quality measures that reward physicians for improved documentation and healthier patient outcomes.
Patients benefit, too. Patients can make one trip to secure the medical attention they need without the hassle of traveling all over town and worrying about whether insurance will cover the needed care. With the pro-active healthcare they receive, patients experience better health and less trips to the doctor and emergency room. Health plan providers save money as patients receive needed screenings, tests and vaccines, gain continuous care by dedicated personnel and improve their overall health.
Physicians win, too, when they’re able to guide patients easily to trusted specialists who share a dedication for overall health improvements. The physicians are able to concentrate on office patients, knowing that hospitalized patients are being cared for by hospitalists, care coordinators and later medical home specialists.
