New opportunities to improve clinical performance are now possible post Covid. This coincides with the Rand Group Study published in January of 2021 entitled "Primary Care Productivity" linked below. They conclude- "at present, there is a lack of consensus on how to define and assess primary care clinical productivity."They overlooked HealthMetrics Partners. We work with integrated health systems and ACOs to identify, optimize and scale best demonstrated practices enterprise wide. Based on 450 plus clinical assessments, we typically find 10-30% benefits related to reducing cost and improving quality.This is now strategic as organizations shift from revenue based/fee for service to outcome and value based reimbursement. With the introduction of telehealth, we can also provide evidence based feedback on the effectiveness of "care in the wild" vs on premise. We use proprietary analytics to relate clinical outcomes and performance to workflow. Case studies and a detailed review of our analytics are published in the Journal of Managed Care. We are now developing Clinical Performance in Ambulatory Setting using clinical analytics in the cloud.
