Measuring care management

Posted: October 24, 2022

Improve efficiency and meet patients’ needs with a care management program backed by data

Care management programs involve multiple moving parts, from setting strategy to managing spend to improving outcomes. How you monitor and prioritize these pieces is key to keeping your program lean and efficient. Your current data solution is critical to balancing the best possible care with waste-reducing business intelligence.

The Challenge

Care management is an important component of population health management, but healthcare organizations sometimes struggle to assess the impact and maximize the value of a given program. Poor measurement strategies can result in organizations cutting their care management programs too early, before they have a chance to show results. Poor measurement can also cause a misalignment between the resources being invested and the organization’s ultimate population health goals.

The Solution

Equip your team with robust data and predictive analytics through every step of the care journey. When you leverage Arcadia’s aggregation and analytics to determine next steps, you can break down silos and take informed, productive action.

Finally, recoup more time, allowing care managers to focus on what matters most: matching patients to interventions.
