The Future of Care Traci Bild, Founder Bild & Company Loriann Putzier, President & COO IntegraCare


The Future of Care • Under new payment models, providers must be assessed on clinical outcomes performance as well as alignment around hospital strategic goals and initiatives.


Industry Trends Rapidly changing healthcare system • From silos to collaboration

• Establishing partnerships across program types • Tracking and reporting outcomes • Locking in care networks

• A move toward single payer system


MINDING TOMORROW: COLLABORATE Research Being Done Right Now • • • •

Can AL offer an alternative structure as lower cost setting? Can the community use the expertise in geriatrics as a community resource? Can this be an alternate environment to minimize health risk? Can AL help to improving transitions in care?


Where Are You In the Process? 8 Steps to Get Started 1. Identify your referring hospital leadership team. 2. Access where each hospital is in setting up their care network. 3. Discover each hospital’s criteria for being part of their network. 4. Understand each hospital’s current initiatives in regards to patient readmission goals. 5. Identify areas of opportunity for your community. 6. Communicate clearly stated action plans as to how you can help each hospital reach its goals? 7. Begin to track and communicate outcomes, in writing. 8. Make professional outreach a part of your weekly action plan.
