Video: GuidingCare Continuum of Care
In today's fragmented healthcare system, the risks for patients, providers, and health plans continue to escalate. HealthEdge's GuidingCare Continuum of Care solution suite addresses these challenges by managing the entire continuum of care to reduce risks and improve health outcomes. Here’s a closer look at how it works:
Integration at Urgent Care:
- A health plan member at an urgent care center is prescribed an antibiotic.
- The physician lacks the complete medical record but uses GuidingCare to access the patient's medication claims data.
- The system identifies a potential medication toxicity risk due to a drug interaction with the patient’s COPD medication.
- The care manager alerts the pharmacist, who informs the physician, resulting in an alternative prescription.
Transition of Care:
- After an inpatient procedure, a nurse evaluates a patient for transition of care.
- The patient is at risk for falling, triggering a GuidingCare alert.
- The care manager orders a cane to be delivered to the patient's home to mitigate the risk.
Post-Surgery Discharge:
- A patient being discharged after surgery requires assistance with daily activities.
- The care manager receives an ADT (Admission, Discharge, Transfer) notification via GuidingCare.
- Home health care services are promptly arranged to support the patient’s recovery at home.
