“Antelope Valley ACO works to enhance the well-being of the community by providing comprehensive, high-quality healthcare services, including prevention and education,” said Dr. Satya Dandamudi, Chairman of Governing council of Antelope Valley ACO. “As a primary care-centric ACO connecting independent practices, we selected eClinicalWorks because it is one of the most comprehensive population health management solutions available and it has the flexibility to continue to meet our goals as we grow. eClinicalWorks will enable us to gain a holistic view of our patients’ records and deliver better care at an affordable cost.”
The ACO care delivery model coordinates care between patients and members of the healthcare team with the goal of helping strengthen the physician-patient relationship. Antelope Valley ACO has been working with NeXT Health Care Solutions to form this organization of independent practices with the goals of improving patient satisfaction and reducing unnecessary costs. eClinicalWorks CCMR will aid Antelope Valley ACO in meeting its quality measures and performance metrics.
“NeXT Health Care Solutions works with organizations looking to create ACOs and aids them in delivering the triple aim of better care, better health at an affordable cost,” said Dr. Jayadeva Chowdappa, founder and CEO of NeXT Health Care Solutions. “We have worked with eClinicalWorks on ACO projects in the past and found its population health management solution to be one of the best in the market today and an ideal fit for organizations similar to Antelope Valley ACO. We are excited to continue this initiative with Antelope Valley ACO and eClinicalWorks.”
“Antelope Valley ACO is making significant strides in pursuing better care delivery,” explained Girish Navani, CEO and co-founder of eClinicalWorks. “The eClinicalWorks CCMR platform includes all the major areas needed from a technology partner to successfully implement a population health management initiative, including powerful analytics and a vision into patient populations that is actionable at the point of care. We look forward to working with Antelope Valley ACO.”
eClinicalWorks CCMR will be providing Antelope Valley ACO with visibility into a patient’s care across all settings, facilitate smooth transitions of care, engage patients and providers in preventative care, improve outcomes among populations and reduce costs. A vendor-neutral, open network securely connects ambulatory EHRs with hospital in-patient systems and payer claim feeds, including CMS, to provide cost and utilization for services delivered to patients.
Included in CCMR, eClinicalWorks Population Health Management Analytics uses closed-loop analytics to deliver reporting, alerting and messaging capabilities necessary to manage population health. Dashboards can be shown at the community level to determine and monitor adherence of clinical process and outcomes, including medication recalls and chronic disease management. Care coordination and analytics work together for a collaborative care framework.
