Hospitals and Health Systems

WISHIN can help hospitals and health systems reduce avoidable hospital readmissions, improve care transitions, and fill in gaps in a patient’s health history during an emergency.

From medication lists and allergy information to recent test results and immunizations, having critical data at their fingertips gives doctors and nurses the data they need to deliver life-saving care, even when their patients cannot communicate.

In addition, your hospital can automatically share test results, consult notes, discharge summaries, procedures and other vital patient health information with other providers across the state. This can improve transitions of care and help reduce preventable readmissions, which will not only improve patient care but can also help you avoid penalties that can negatively impact your bottom line.

Behavioral Health Providers 

Twenty-nine percent of all people with a physical health condition also have a behavioral health condition and 68 percent of adults with a mental illness have at least one medical condition.  As a behavioral health provider you know that patients requiring both physical and behavioral health services have a unique need for coordinated care.  Many times primary-care providers, specialists and behavioral health professionals lack critical information about a patient that can delay diagnosis or result in harmful drug interactions.

With WISHIN Pulse, providers have access to both physical and behavioral health patient information at the point of care allowing providers to better understand the whole health of an individual so they can make more informed treatment decisions.

Care Coordinators

Patients are most vulnerable during care transitions.  As a care coordinator you know that effective transitions are crucial to preventing complications and ensuring positive health outcomes.  When a patient is transitioned from provider to provider or from care setting to care setting, it is important for all providers treating the patient to know the details of the patient’s prior treatment and medications in order to ensure continuity of care and proper medication management.

WISHIN provides critical, timely data about patients and their encounters to assist providers that are performing care coordination and to help care coordinators working as part of a health plan.

Health Plans

Timely and efficient care coordination is a must for health plans and other payer organizations to truly improve their health, produce the best possible outcomes, and reduce health care costs.  But care coordination isn’t easy.  Incomplete, delayed,  or missing health information about a member can have serious consequences, including medication errors, unnecessary or repetitive diagnostic tests, unnecessary emergency room visits, and preventable hospital admissions and readmissions.  Often, you may not become aware of your members' emergency department (ED) or other hospital visits until you receive the claim resulting from the visit - which can be up to 30 days after the event. During this time, members may have had even more hospital or ED visits.

In addition to improving care coordination, timely clinical information on your members can also help reduce the administrative burdens associated with gathering data for quality reporting programs.  Programs likeHealthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set and theMedicareAdvantage star rating system strongly encourage patient-centric approaches for member management that require greater access and use of clinical data to reduce adverse reactions and cut down on repeated clinical procedures like laboratory tests and scans. Often, obtaining the data necessary for reporting in these programs is a manual and time-intensive process. 

If you’re looking for effective and efficient care coordination and to reduce your organizations administrative burden WISHIN can help by communicating your members’ information appropriately, consistently and without delay.
