The recent explosion in the use of Remote Physiologic Monitoring (RPM) among Medicaid patients—over a 1,300% increase—highlights a transformative shift in healthcare delivery. This surge, primarily driven by a handful of providers and predominantly involving female patients and those with chronic conditions, demonstrates RPM's potential to significantly improve patient outcomes. Looking ahead, expanding RPM could lead to enhanced management of chronic diseases and reduce hospital visits, making healthcare more accessible to the Medicaid population. The ongoing development and support for RPM technologies could be a game-changer in how we provide care to some of the most vulnerable segments of society. #HealthcareInnovation #Medicaid #ChronicCareManagement https://lnkd.in/gTYKFfst

Value-based care (VBC) is revolutionizing the healthcare landscape, shifting the focus from volume to value. This approach rewards healthcare providers for delivering high-quality care and improving patient outcomes, rather than simply increasing the quantity of services provided. In this blog, we will explore what value-based care entails, key considerations for Medicaid providers, the benefits and challenges of VBC, and how organizations like us at Clinify Health can support providers in this transition. https://lnkd.in/gF5AVu5n #valuebasedcare #medicaid #medicaidproviders #digitalhealth #clinifyhealth #caretrax

Long-term and post-acute care (LTPAC) providers are crucial in our healthcare system, especially for complex patient populations like those needing LTPAC. Medicare spends a significant amount on post-acute care, nearly $57 billion, which is about 15% of its total spending. About 40% of hospital discharges are followed by LTPAC services, with nearly 2 million skilled nursing facility (SNF) stays yearly. Improving and coordinating post-acute care can lead to better quality and lower costs. LTPAC providers can lead the way in value-based care, but current models like accountable care organizations don't fully accommodate their unique challenges. Only a small percentage of SNFs participate in ACOs, and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) aims to have all Medicare beneficiaries in an accountable care relationship by 2030. Improving models to align with LTPAC providers can enhance care and lower costs. Abigail Barreto, Nisha Hammel, Aisha T Pittman, David Pittman, and Sarah Sugar, MPH, are the authors of this report published in Fierce Healthcare. #LTPAC #Medicare #ValueBasedCare https://lnkd.in/g2gzAi9w

Patient experience is increasingly impacting #Medicaid managed care contracts and reimbursement. Find out what steps one Medicaid MCO took to boost member satisfaction: 1️⃣ Modernized channel integration - A unified communications platform improved access to different care avenues like virtual care, chatbots, and call centers. 2️⃣ Expanded in-house support services - Increasing in-house care coordinators, health coaches, and member advisers established more trusted relationships between members and their health plan care team versus third-party delegated entities. 3️⃣ Targeted support programs - Hyper-personalized member support for high-risk conditions like pregnancy or behavioral health issues showed substantial gains in condition-specific experience scores as well as overall plan satisfaction. Focusing on streamlined access, internal expertise, and tailored services demonstrates how one Medicaid plan significantly moved the needle on patient experience.

As of 5 minutes ago the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services released the #PhysicianFeeSchedule Proposed Rule for CY2025. My colleagues and I have had the pleasure of working long and hard hours to bring these proposals forward in the hopes of expanding equitable care for Medicare beneficiaries. Some of my personal favorites from the proposed rule include: 🚀 Advanced Primary Care Management: CMS has proposed three new HCPCs G-codes, integrating care management and communication technology-based services. Alongside the APCM code bundle we have released an RFI to gather feedback on potential payment policies for advanced primary care services. ❤️ Cardiovascular Risk Assessments: Proposed payment for cardiovascular risk assessments based on the Million Hearts model to better manage heart health in patients with suspected risk of cardiovascular disease. 📋 RFI on #CommunityHealthIntegration and #PrincipalIllnessNavigation Codes and #SocialDeterminantsofHealth Risk Assessment: CMS is seeking feedback on factors to consider for future rulemaking, including auxiliary personnel, certification/training requirements, and improving utilization in rural areas. We also want to hear how these codes are being used in conjunction with community-based organizations. 💡 New Payments for High-Risk Interventions: CMS is proposing separate payments for practitioners assisting individuals at high risk of suicide or overdose. This includes dedicated payment for safety planning interventions and post-discharge follow-up contacts, ensuring continuous support for those in need. 🔓 Improving Medicare Access: Proposed policy changes to improve Medicare access for formerly incarcerated individuals and those not in physical custody of penal authorities. There's so much more to dive into! See here: -- Press Release: https://lnkd.in/gxSMEFMp -- Fact Sheet: https://lnkd.in/gAqJBETx -- Full Rule: https://lnkd.in/gZim4Euu As always, we encourage folks to provide their feedback during the public comment period which ends September 9, 2024. #Healthcare #PolicyUpdate #PrimaryCare #PatientCare #FeedbackRequested #ValueBasedCare #MedicarePFS

Modern Healthcare highlights the potential benefits for Florida's health systems as they embrace Medicaid reimbursement for hospital-at-home services. This move aligns with the trend of states adopting this innovative care model, with approximately 330 hospitals in 37 states already offering at-home acute care. The shift towards home-based hospital care presents numerous advantages, from promoting health equity to enhancing patient satisfaction. By backing Medicaid reimbursement for these services, we can drive improved healthcare outcomes and optimize resource utilization. It's crucial for more states to acknowledge the value of hospital-at-home programs and consider following suit. #HealthcareInnovation #Medicaid #HospitalAtHome #HealthEquity
