There’s an app for that
Collaborating with Pegasystems, EY teams have developed EY Care Coordination, a mobile application and web-based interface that helps health providers improve patient care. By leveraging Pegasystems technology, patient care is streamlined and simplified, effectively tackling issues that typically lead to readmission:
- Prescription management
- Medical appointments
- Logistical support
EY Care Coordination efficiently connects health care providers, payers and payviders with patients or their caregivers, no matter the complexity of the patient’s condition.
Mitigating readmissions… and more
Mitigating the risk of readmittance is a significant benefit of EY Care Coordination. But it’s one of many.
Through the app, users can identify cost-efficient care pathways, securely share EHRs, and track patient progress. Patients will appreciate virtual support coordinated care, and educational resources all designed with them in mind.
For organizations that include care navigator positions, the EY Care Coordination tool enhances their ability to take care of patients and reduce admissions. It tangibly provides both fiscal and physical improvement.
The emergence of applications like EY Care Coordination represents a promising stride in the health care industry’s proactive efforts to reduce unnecessary hospital readmissions and enhance the overall patient care process.
