With the recent introduction of the Medicare Shared Savings Program and Advance Payment model, healthcare providers' financial incentives will be based on quality measures such as patient outcomes and care coordination. While there is growing recognition of the role of EHR systems to support care coordination in medical practices, healthcare professionals must also consider additional technology to drive efficient and effective proactive care coordination so they may take advantage of the incentives from programs like patient-centered medical home and accountable care organizations.
The webinar will provide perspectives and information on:
Why EHR adoption is a necessary component of physician practices
How enhancements to the EHR allow for proactive care coordination of patient populations around quality and outcomes
How health information exchange and analytics capabilities are made possible through technology
