In this month’s episode, Senior Reporter Katie Adams explored some of the executive moves and layoffs that recently occurred in the healthcare world. She also interviewed Graham Barnes, who just stepped into a new role as the CEO of Medically Home.
Zelis CEO Amanda Eisel shares her perspective on how the company is solving the problems of a fragmented health financial system to benefit all.
The majority of health systems now offer some sort of home-based care program, according to a new survey of hospital leaders. The biggest goals of these programs are to improve patient outcomes through reductions in readmissions, hospitalizations and emergency room visits, the report found.
Home care is no longer only for elderly patients who require a visiting nurse to come into their home and check on them post-discharge. Pippa Shulman, Medically Home's chief medical officer, said that her company's health systems partners need to be on board with the fact that hospital-level care is moving away from brick-and-mortar facilities. In her view, home care does a great job of humanizing patients and gives providers a window into how they live and maintain their health.
Medically Home partners with health systems to provide care in patients' homes. As long as there is a roof, electricity, running water and a bathroom, the company can offer its services.
Baxter International, Global Medical Response and Cardinal Health provided the latest round of funding for Boston-based Medically Home, joining Mayo Clinic and Kaiser Permanente as strategic partners.
