The Physician Alliance HIE.ADT Implementation.pdf

2019 Best Practice Awards Submission for HIE/ADT Implementation

Each quarter, Wellcentive reports based on ADT data identify ED utilization by diabetic patients. These reports that also risk-stratify patients are sent to care managers in the six pilot practices. The reports are used to aid to the care managers to identify patients (high ED utilizers and high-risk diabetics) who would benefit from care management interventions. Care manager workflow includes addressing gaps in care, improved care coordination, addressing SDoH needs, establishing self-management goals to improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs, and address appropriate use of ED.

2019 Best Practice Awards Submission for HIE/ADT Implementation

The goal was to automate data flow containing valuable quality and Admission Discharge Transfer data for all patients. In order to accomplish this goal, the identified need was to develop a process by using a reliable Health Information Exchange system that could send data from the ambulatory Electronic Medical Record, Athena. The HIE/ADT Implementation took place in 2016 to 2017. Goals have been met to capture all the data elements needed and transmit the data through an automated process. The ADT information has also greatly improved identification of patients utilizing ED and IP services in real time.

The practice care managers' access to real time ADT notices and follow-up with patients after a facility encounter has resulted in an overall decrease in ER visits, a decrease in inpatient readmissions, and a decrease in frequent ER utilization.
