The Affordable Care Act offers incentives for at-risk providers to manage higher levels of acuity outside of the hospital. Transitional Care offers the ideal setting to decrease costs while improving quality.
Post-Acute Solutions
Bridging the gap between hospital and home requires specialized care, state-of-the-art technology and a purpose-built environment that promotes efficiency and effectiveness.
Providing post-acute rehabilitative care in a hotel-like setting with hospitality services and amenities allows patients to enjoy both the journey and the destination on their road to recovery.
Transitional Care focuses exclusively on serving short-term rehab patients in upscale, dedicated facilities outside the hospital setting. This singular focus enables a higher level of care with greater patient and family satisfaction, improved outcomes and reduced costs.
Custodial Care
An Integral Part of the Solution
Healthcare reform also calls for pro-active, integrated care solutions that improve lives, reduce fragmentation and are cost effective. In this new model, custodial care providers can play a key role in being a part of the solution.
This patient-centered, integrated residential care-based model offers a paradigm shift from sick to well care . . . from fragmented service delivery to coordinated care . . . and from need-driven, conventional, re-active support to pro-active and integrated care management.
A shift away from a per diem payment, which rewards based on low cost and poor quality, offers new incentive for key custodial care providers to go at-risk for the total healthcare spend and collaborate with ancillary care partners to provide better outcomes.
A patient-centered, custodial care model that links providers, payers and patients throughout the healthcare continuum provides the missing link to integrated care.
A successful care management relationship with overall shared risk for the total healthcare spend incentivizes providers to holistically improve quality of care for the patients they mutually serve.
