Ten Tips for Accountable Care Success

That’s right. It’s time to retool. To prepare. Healthcare is changing and it’s changing fast. A cosmic shift from fee-for-service to an entirely new holistic, pay-for-performance delivery model. It’s a journey we are all taking together. With patient centered medical homes (PCMHs) and accountable care organizations (ACOs) fast becoming the direct routes to success. Maybe too fast. Maybe not fast enough. Either way, NextGen Healthcare is a seasoned HIT partner who can help you successfully on your way to ACO.

We’re taking this ACO journey together. No need to worry about how to deliver

and demonstrate collaborative, accountable

care. NextGen Healthcare has already

been there, doing that. In fact, as of 2013,

we already have about 120 ACO clients

across the country. And over 30% of PCMH

certified practices. So our solutions work.

Add that to a combination of 20 years of

NextGen Healthcare expertise, clinician

input, and our clients’ experiences.

These connections and knowledge result

in better health, outcomes, and revenue.

So here are a few tips to help you

along the way:

JOURNEY TO ACO

Achieve Meaningful Use (MU) Stage 1, Stage 2, and beyond.

The NextGen® Ambulatory EHR is CCHIT® certified* and proven. In fact,

Improve patient engagement and results measurement.

Use population health management and quality measurement tools to demonstrate achieved ACO goals. Involve your patients and measure success in their health and your bottom line with

anywhere, anytime access to records.

Manage population health.

THREETHREETHREETHREE3THREE3

Engage your patients more effectively. Make healthy outcomes contagious among

your entire patient panel. Improve the patient experience. Make it easy and convenient for them.

Access is a key criterion for PCMH and ACO. So give it to them. Anytime, anywhere.

4FOURFOURFOUR4FOUR4

Connect, collaborate, and coordinate care.

With patients, colleagues, and across your community’s care landscape.

While you focus on providing quality care, let the technology experts manage the technology. Avoid a loose patchwork

of interfaced databases that results in isolated and uncoordinated care.

5FIVEFIVEFIVE5FIVE5

Improve clinical workflow and efficiency.

And do it throughout all locations, across the continuum of care. Efficient workflows are key elements in achieving both accountable care and positive

operational results. You need an intelligent EHR that provides a simpler, smarter, and faster workflow.

6SIXSIXSIX6SIX6Strengthen your bottom line.

Increase revenue and grow your bottom line

with solutions that accelerate cash flow and reduce A/R days, claims denials, and bad

debt. When you produce cleaner claims and uncontested payer remittances, you’ll see

better financial results.

7SEVENSEVENSEVENSEVEN7SEVEN7

Implement the foundations for Health Reform.

Be ready for ICD-10, pay-for-performance, Meaningful Use (MU) stage 2, enhanced quality measures, and other

Health Reform initiatives. Proactive automation saves time, money, and resources by reducing denials and through synchronized digital patient statements,

claims, reimbursements, and appointments.

Measure and report clinical and financial data.

Track progress on clinical quality measures, MU,

and operational core metrics. Compare results with

national benchmarks. Connect and share data

and results. Ensure you can access clinical and financial

data that’s easy to read and interpret—graphically

and intuitively.

9NINENINENINE9NINE9

Be prepared for the new healthcare landscape.

Be ready for better health and better results. For your patients and

for your practice. Because when that happens, you’ll be well on your way to achieving MU, ACO, and improved

outcomes across the board.

10TENTENTEN10TEN10
