Personalize the Healthcare Experience for Improved Outcomes, Happier Patients

A consumer desire for a personalized experience is converging with the healthcare consumerism trend to alter patient expectations for their relationships with caregivers. Wearable devices, IoT data, and healthcare apps that track sleep, diet, and exercise give consumers more insight and control of their overall health, and they increasingly view PCPs and healthcare professionals (HPs) as simply part of an overall healthcare journey. An important part, to be sure, but more like partners pursuing

What Hospital Success Looks Like Under Value-Based Care

Hospitals are increasingly turning to value-based care initiatives to transform care delivery, lower the total cost of care, and improve patient outcomes.

Ultimately, success under these reimbursement models hinges upon seamless coordination between all stakeholders across the continuum

3 Ways Health Plans Can Improve Sleep Health for their Members

Getting a good night’s sleep should have nothing to do with having a great health plan — but it often does.  While some individuals can improve their sleep by making small changes, many who suffer from serious, chronic sleep disorders need a higher level of care and ongoing treatments, and many health plans offer insufficient benefits. For example, Medicare covers sleep diagnostic tests under strict conditions, if patients are referred by a physician. Other health plans have denied

Unlocking Interoperability with a Blockchain-Powered Network

Achieving fluid data interoperability has been a complex and challenging goal for the U.S. healthcare system. The result of which has led to excessive administrative costs, delays in providing care, and significant patient frustration.  According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, U.S. healthcare spending grew 9.7% in 2020, reaching $4.1 trillion, or $12,530 per person.

The No Surprises Act: How Payers Can Stay Compliant

As the healthcare system continues to evolve to adopt a more patient-centric approach, surprise billing has become a topic discussed by consumers and policymakers. Surprise billing can occur when a patient unknowingly receives care from providers that are outside their network.
