  • Patient care plan management for Alternative Payment Models (APMs)
  • Compliance for patient-facing quality measures within programs such as Meaningful Use, PQRS (Physician Quality Reporting System), etc.
As the nation's medical system continues to transform from volume to value, MACRA will shift reimbursement from fee-for-service to pay-for-performance under MIPS and APMs, placing greater emphasis on patient engagement and patient outcomes. Using HealthGrid, providers can improve care coordination for value-based care through a platform that combines patient mobile outreach, personalized education, mobile preventative screenings and assessments, care transition enablement, and care plan management.
