SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., July 25, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Matrix Medical Network® (Matrix), the leading provider of in-home assessments and care management, announced today that it has completed its two millionth in-home health visit since pioneering this service in 2006. This milestone is a testament to the importance of in-home health services in improving quality of care for health plan members.
Matrix’s national provider network delivers care to health plan members where they’re most comfortable – in their home. Meeting with members where they live provides a much deeper understanding of the health challenges they face and the support they require – including health, environmental and social needs. Matrix providers are able to uniquely engage, evaluate and educate members to foster health improvement.
“This is a notable milestone for us but, more importantly, for the two million health plan members we have served,” said Matrix Chief Executive Officer Walt Cooper. “By meeting with members in their homes, we can identify the support they need and empower them to proactively manage their health today and into the future. Our providers improve and, at times, have even been credited with saving members’ lives.”
Matrix Co-Founder & Chief Medical Affairs Officer Dr. Marcia Naveh has witnessed the growing impact of in-home visits on the lives of members. “During each visit, our providers listen closely, pay attention to details, provide invaluable education to the member, and help build a personalized network of support. Our clinical team is uniquely skilled at motivating many individuals to make positive lifestyle changes that dramatically improve the management of their health. We look forward to providing care to the next million members.”
