Andy Edeburn, Director of Project Management, Health Dimensions Group, presented Hospitals and Post Acute Providers: How to Create Data-Driven Partnerships. Touching on the importance each entity has to contribute in order to sustain a successful, working partnership, Edeburn elaborated on key points for how each side can identify and accomplish its partnership goals.
For Post-Acute Care Providers:
- Obtaining, understanding and analyzing data on hospital patient discharges, payment and costs in order to identify ideal partners
- Creating clinical pathways across the continuum for best patient outcomes, reduced readmissions, and reduced costs.
For Hospitals:
- Understanding what to look for internally and in a potential post acute partner in order to create a viable continuing care network.
In the end, Edeburn explains, it’s all about teamwork.
