In today’s dynamic healthcare landscape, seamless access to comprehensive patient data stands as a cornerstone for informed decision-making and optimal patient care. However, the reality often falls short of this ideal, particularly with off-the-shelf medical systems. These systems, while functional, lack the capacity to aggregate data from other systems and merge it in a readily accessible format.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

When clinicians engage with patients, there\u2019s an array of medical data that needs to be considered for effective patient outreach. Patient demographics, diagnostic results, treatment history, programs they\u2019re enrolled in, contact preferences, etc., are all data that influence how the clinician reaches out to the patient.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Care management plays a crucial role within health plans, serving as a proactive approach to coordinate and optimize healthcare services for members, particularly those with complex medical needs or chronic conditions. Care management programs contribute to improved health outcomes, enhanced member satisfaction, and cost-effective healthcare delivery within health plans. Care Management programs can vary from plan to plan, and include functions of Patient Advocacy, Coordination of Care, Chronic Disease Management, Preventive Care, Medication Management, Risk Assessment and Stratification, Transitional Care, Behavioral Health Support, Health Education and Coaching, and Utilization Management.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Estimates suggest that health plans may allocate 10%<\/a> of their administrative budget to care management efforts, although these figures can vary based on factors such as the size of the plan, the population it serves, and the specific care management programs implemented. Ultimately, health plans allocate a significant portion of their budget to care management initiatives, recognizing the value of proactive healthcare coordination in improving member outcomes and reducing overall healthcare costs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Having a holistic, 360\u00b0 clinical view of a member’s overall health has become a critical tool in realizing the potential of improving member outcomes and realizing the ROI from this critical investment in care.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Impact on Clinical Workflow<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Data integration and interoperability are significant challenges within off-the-shelf care management systems. Off-the-shelf medical systems can seem attractive to healthcare providers, offering a range of functionalities within an easily implementable, ready-to-use platform, however, because these medical systems are often built to accommodate a wide range of functions, they can be limiting for performing more specific roles.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Clinicians responsible for delivering high-quality care face obstacles when attempting to access pertinent patient information. They must conduct exhaustive searches to find the medical data they need. This inefficiency not only hinders the clinicians’ ability to deliver timely care but also introduces the risk of oversight or misinterpretation of vital medical data.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The fragmentation of medical data across various sources only increases this challenge. Without a cohesive system in place, finding the necessary data becomes a hunt through multiple medical systems. To this point, reports indicate that 60%<\/a> of health systems receive duplicate, incomplete, or junk data.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Clinicians in Care Management functions often rely on the premise of the “next best action” to determine the most appropriate course of action for a patient’s care at any given time. This data-driven approach requires unifying relevant patient data from various sources, including electronic health records (EHRs), medical claims, member benefits, engagement data, etc. Furthermore, using predictive analytics and decision support tools can greatly assist clinicians in making data-driven \u201cnext best actions\u201d, like reaching out to patients through channels they like to engage with.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
