Central Logic, the leading innovator in Access Center software solutions, and Conduit Health Partners, a patient access company that develops strategies to mitigate risk and help health systems grow, has begun a preferred partnership to improve health systems’ care access and operational efficiency nationwide. The announcement was made this week at the 2019 Patient Flow Summit in Las Vegas.
Partnership Benefits
This partnership will allow health systems that don’t have their own transfer center to benefit from a comprehensive technology platform from Central Logic, operated by registered nurses from Conduit Health Partners. Conduit Health Partners nurse teams exclusively serve their clients so they can knowledgeably collaborate with referral organizations to connect patients to care 24/7. The end goal of the partnership is to help health systems maximize growth by emphasizing care access, patient acquisition, and retention while reducing administrative burden.
Central Logic’s technology offers a holistic, real-time perspective on the health system’s facilities and providers, which enables the nurse teams from Conduit Health Partners to find the best care venue and helps them connect referrers with the appropriate consulting physicians. This reduces the patient’s time to treatment and delivers the best possible care.
In addition to having a dedicated team operating a health system’s patient care navigation platform, the preferred partnership will help clients gain a clearer perspective of patient flow through data tracking and visualization features, as well as easy-to-use reporting tools that enable them to identify and explore additional improvement areas.
Why It Matters
“This partnership brings to life Conduit Health Partners’ mission of providing responsive expert guidance to improve care access while creating efficiencies in patient navigation,” said Cheryl Dalton-Norman, president, Conduit Health Partners. “We couldn’t be happier that Central Logic has joined us on this journey. Our combined solutions will help clients achieve revenue growth, grow and retain appropriate patient volume and streamline operations while allowing them to focus on other important aspects of operating their health system. As a result, they will attract new patients, improve retention rates and identify opportunities for growth and improvement.”
“Both Central Logic and Conduit Health Partners agree that the future of health system growth and success depend on delivering patients safe, quick and efficient access to the right care at the right location without delay,” said Angie Franks, president and CEO of Central Logic. “That is why this partnership is such a great fit and why we are thrilled to help health systems who do not yet have their own Access Center take advantage of this hugely important growth and care quality improvement opportunity. Individually, our companies offer tremendous value to any healthcare organization, but together we are even better.”
