Allscripts to extend its comprehensive population health management platform
October 20 2016 - 4:15PM
Allscripts (NASDAQ:MDRX) announced today the expansion of its
next-generation care management solution, the first to enable
providers to manage patients across post-acute settings.
Allscripts, through the acquisition of CarePort, a pioneer in
post-acute outcomes management, extends its breadth as the largest
connected acute and post-acute provider network in the industry.
Due to the shift in healthcare reimbursement and
legislation focused on delivering critical outcomes, managing
post-acute care is now a necessary and integral component of
population health strategy. CarePort enables providers to enhance
post-acute outcomes and costs by guiding patients across the care
continuum and tracking their recovery in real-time. CarePort has
three key EHR-agnostic solutions:
- CarePort Guide, which facilitates efficient
post-acute care selection and helps patients choose high-quality
care that is best for their needs;
- CarePort Connect, which manages patients
across post-acute care settings with real-time data and
alerts;
- CarePort Insights, which evaluates patient
outcomes and post-acute provider performance metrics.
“Care teams often lack access to real-time and
actionable information. CarePort’s vision of connecting post-acute
and acute providers while enabling transparency to guide patient
care across the continuum aligns with Allscripts’ commitment to
improving population health,” said Dr. Lissy Hu, Founder and CEO of
CarePort Health.
“By using both CarePort and Allscripts Care
Management™, I know how the two solutions can
improve post-acute outcomes, and I’m excited to see the two
organizations come together. The level of transparency and
real-time information the solutions provide regarding our patients
is a game changer,” said Alex Alvarez, Vice President for
Care Management and Post-Acute Transitions, Maimonides Medical
Center. “Allscripts Care Management offers an extensive network of
post-acute providers, enabling case managers to send referrals
anywhere in the country. Post-discharge, CarePort lets us follow
the patient’s journey through post-acute care to collect outcomes
data about patients and providers. The combined solution
is exactly the kind of patient-centered tool we need to support
value-based care and deliver better outcomes.”
Additional customers echoed the importance of a
patient-centered approach. "With CarePort, Baystate has provided
its patients with 'first-of-its kind' technology that helps them
decide where to go for post-acute care—a critical decision, as
numerous studies show that post-acute providers vary on quality and
their ability to care for different types of patients,” said Joel
Vengco, VP/CIO, Baystate Health. “In other words, it’s not an easy
decision for patients and families to make. Until now."
Allscripts CareInMotion is a population health
management platform that helps healthcare organizations better
deliver patient-centered and value-based care. It is a
comprehensive, adaptable framework that helps organizations address
their specific population health priorities, such as connectivity,
care coordination, analytics and patient engagement.
“The addition of CarePort will enable Allscripts
to expand the value we bring through our CareInMotion platform,”
said Rick Poulton, Allscripts President. “Our goal is to enable our
clients to successfully manage post-acute outcomes end-to-end, from
the point of hospital discharge and through post-acute care.”
CarePort will continue to be based in Boston
operating as a subsidiary of Allscripts. Terms of the transaction
were not disclosed.
