The newly released 2024 "Mirror, Mirror" report by The Commonwealth Fund provides critical insights into the state of U.S. healthcare. Despite outspending its peer countries, the U.S. continues to trail behind in crucial health metrics such as life expectancy and preventable deaths. These findings underscore a pressing need for systemic improvements. Read the full report here: https://lnkd.in/eMshnDaq Amidst the challenges, there was a notable bright spot: the U.S. demonstrated exceptional performance in care delivery processes, securing the second-highest ranking. This was driven by outstanding scores in areas like safety, preventative care, and patient engagement. However, low scores in care coordination (7th out of 10) held the U.S. back from the top spot. At Watershed Health, we recognize the potential of care coordination as a cornerstone for improving health system performance and achieving better patient outcomes. Our innovative approach leverages real-time data sharing, ensuring that every member of a patient's care team can work in unison. This collaborative effort not only enhances responsiveness but also paves the way for a more accountable and patient-centered system that works better for everyone.

Recent USDA data shows a troubling increase in hunger in the U.S., with 18 million households facing food insecurity last year - the highest level in nearly a decade. https://lnkd.in/ec2AWFBQ This rising trend highlights the urgent need for effective solutions. At Watershed, our care coordination platform goes beyond traditional healthcare. Our newest tools help providers screen patients for social determinants of health (SDOH) and connect them to local community partners addressing health-related social needs like food insecurity, housing, transportation, and more. Ready to see how we can help you improve care coordination and address the full spectrum of patient needs? Schedule a demo to explore our solutions today: https://lnkd.in/egC-Ymfi

We're proud to partner with The University of Texas at Austin, College of Pharmacy and their Texas PharmCare program to enhance pharmacist access to medical records. Together, we're advancing care for diabetes and hypertension patients in Austin-Travis County and beyond!
The college’s Texas PharmCare program works to minimize barriers limiting pharmacists from accessing medication data and medical records from hospitals and clinics to better provide care for patients, partnering with Tarrytown Pharmacy, H-E-B and Watershed Health.
