Population Health Analytics Reduces Unnecessary ED Services 25%

Source: McKesson Corporation

Since its inception, St. Vincent’s Health Partners (SVHP), a physician-hospital organization based in Bridgeport, Connecticut, has focused on optimizing the quality of its patient care in order to improve outcomes, expand access to care, and meet the growing demands of value-based reimbursement models.

“As we move to value-based reimbursement, we need population health tools that allow us to follow a patient through each transition in care and to remain engaged with the patient in the home, in the hospital, and in post-acute care settings,” says Dr. Michael Hunt, CMIO/CMO of St. Vincent’s Health Partners.

SVHP is navigating its population health journey by partnering with McKesson, utilizing McKesson Population Manager™ to help drive improvements in care delivery and compliance with evidence-based clinical guidelines. Using population health analytics, SVHP has been successful in closing gaps in care for both acute and chronic patients, resulting in a 25% reduction in unnecessary utilization of the emergency department and inpatient services.
