Increasing Referral Volume

 

Running a hospital means managing a profitable business. Staying competitive. Promoting the hospital in the community. And increasing value to physicians and patients by connecting communities of care.


In an effort to improve the quality and safety of the health care system and lower systemic health care costs, both public and private payer reimbursement strategies have shifted from a traditional service-based reimbursement to value-based reimbursement. Under this new system, payment and financial incentives are directly related to patient outcomes, performance, and quality of care. Shared Health® understands the challenge this presents to hospitals and health systems. Our solutions are designed to provide you with the tools needed to maximize revenue and thrive in this value-based reimbursement environment.


Additionally, Primary Care physicians and specialists want to be sure that their patients are receiving quality, efficient care. When you implement Shared Health's hospital-based HIE, your hospital becomes a regular presence in their practice and provides smooth communication.


Keeping your hospital top-of-mind for physicians in your area will increase referrals. Ultimately, the Shared Health HIE lowers costs throughout the system and improves patient care. Everyone wins.
