A roadmap for health systems to move high acuity care to the home

The onset of COVID-19 fundamentally reshaped not only the world at large but the healthcare landscape — sparking regulatory flexibilities as well as changes to reimbursement among payers.

With this has come innovation and new patient preferences. While the timing is certainly right to determine your home-based care strategy, the path is not clear-cut. Health systems have several options as they consider taking on this new terrain and begin shifting healthcare delivery to the home.

Topics covered

• How healthcare is evolving further to expand high-acuity health care services outside a hospital setting
• Clinical, financial, and consumer-based reasons to extend your health system to the home
• Considerations – investments in a virtual command center, remote patient monitoring, logistics, supply chain management, coordinating the clinical workforce, payment model, which patients are best served, etc.
• Flexible solutions as you look to move forward with extending your care to the home
• Impact stories from our patients and partners
