Empowering Patients

Electronic Health Records

This transformation has significantly altered the dynamics of patient-provider interactions, allowing patients greater control (empowerment) and enhancing their involvement in shared decision-making (engagement), their engagement, and shared decision-making in their healthcare process.

Importance of Keeping a Clean Revenue Cycle
A clean, successful Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) process is critical to your organization’s fiscal health and opens the door to providing high quality services and a sustainable work environment. Healthcare revenue cycle is tightly woven into the patient journey, from scheduling the appointment to the remaining zero balance on their account. A solid RCM ensures timely revenue, steady collections, and financial viability, allowing organizations to direct more of their focus on care delivery. Cantata’s RCM solution can help organizations achieve this!
Optimize Your Healthcare Organization for Growth
Dynamic healthcare organizations are constantly looking for ways to improve efficiency and better serve individuals. While many steps go into optimization, reviewing your care delivery process and selecting a technology to support it is a great place to begin. Every small step will help foster better engagement with your clients and a more productive and positive work environment for all. By taking the time to assess your current state and planning a realistic roadmap of desired changes, you can make headway and create an upward spiral of success.
What it takes to improve Population Health
Population health can be defined in many ways, but generally, it is considered the outcomes of a group of individuals, often sharing a geographic location, but can also be divided into employees, ethnic groups, prisoners, insurance enrollees, or any other defined class. It can also include the distribution of health services, which depends heavily on the social determinants of health – where one lives, works, learns, and plays. Tracking the care outcomes of these groups can help providers better understand the complexities associated with them, however, some leaders are skeptical of the population health concept, as being too broad and so not useful in decision making and guiding specific research. There are several approaches organizations can take to improve population health management and outcomes, such as linking it into its overall strategy, collaborating with community leaders, data tracking, and implementing new technology.
