MONTVALE, N.J., Oct. 04, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Illinois Bone & Joint Institute (IBJI) team has chosen SRS Health, a leader in orthopedic HCIT solutions, to partner with them in tackling the escalating complexities of value-based care. IBJI—one of the largest orthopedic specialty groups nationwide—chose SRS Health for its shared vision of engaging patients, improving care, and achieving superior outcomes.
As the healthcare environment increasingly shifts toward value-based reimbursement, it has been left up to specialty practices to find ways to more comprehensively document their outcomes while still preserving the primacy of the doctor-patient relationship. EHR vendors have been challenged to create new methods of frictionless data capture and patient engagement that ensure compliance with the new model, allow practices to prove the value of their service and maximize reimbursements without impeding existing workflows.
SRS Health offers a comprehensive, end-to-end solution that seamlessly monitors the entire continuum of care—from pre- to post-visit—giving IBJI the ability to optimize workflows, operational efficiencies and treatment protocols, leading to better clinical outcomes for their patients and better financial outcomes for the practice itself. SRS Health’s patient engagement platform—in addition to automating patient intake and the collection of patient feedback—empowers patients to become an integral part of their own care team. The SRS outcomes solution supports IBJI’s efforts to improve the quality of patient care by providing large data sets for benchmarking and research. Partnering with SRS Health allows IBJI to continue to focus on delivering superior patient care without the additional burden of cumbersome data collection.
“At IBJI, we continually strive to enhance our clinical delivery model around the patient’s needs,” said André Blom, IBJI chief operating officer. “When we looked at the depth and breadth of orthopedic data that SRS Health’s outcomes solution—powered by OBERD—collects and quantifies, there was no question that they could provide us with the insights to keenly refine our ongoing quality-improvement initiatives. Understanding the complete spectrum of our clinical intervention strategies will serve us well on a daily basis, especially in the emerging value-based care models in which we participate.”
“Understanding the complexities our clients are facing in today’s ever-changing healthcare landscape and developing strategies and solutions to help them excel is our reason for being,” says Scott Ciccarelli, chief executive officer at SRS Health. “While staying true to our roots in providing outstanding productivity and customizable workflows, we have taken a giant leap forward in helping our clients to demonstrate value by improving operational efficiencies, lowering cost of care, and enhancing the quality of their outcomes.”
