Custom tools can help clinicians maintain continuity of care for patients with complex health issues. Tools like the Patient 360° View and Care Management Portal can help clinicians stay up-to-date on patient health, identify potential problems early, and coordinate care across multiple providers. Patients can also take a more active role in their care.
In today’s healthcare landscape, population health is increasingly important. By taking a population-based approach to care, clinicians can improve the health of entire communities, not just individual patients.
One way to improve population health is to use custom tools to empower clinicians. These tools can help clinicians track patient progress, identify at-risk patients, and coordinate care across multiple providers.
The Cleveland Clinic is a leader in the use of custom tools to improve population health. The clinic has developed several tools that help clinicians maintain continuity of care for patients with complex health issues.
One example of a custom tool used at Cleveland Clinic is the Patient 360° view. This tool provides clinicians with a comprehensive view of a patient’s health history, including medications, allergies, and lab results. This information can help clinicians make better decisions about patient care.
Another example of a custom tool used at the Cleveland Clinic is the Care Management Portal. This portal allows patients to track their health progress, communicate with their care team, and access educational resources. This can help patients take a more active role in their care.
The use of custom tools is just one way that the Cleveland Clinic is improving population health. By empowering clinicians and patients, the clinic is working to improve the health of entire communities.
In the interview, Lara Jehi and Craig Martin discuss how custom tools can help clinicians maintain continuity of care for patients with complex health issues.
Jehi says that custom tools can help clinicians “stay up-to-date on a patient’s health status, identify potential problems early, and coordinate care across multiple providers.”
Martin adds that custom tools can also help patients “take a more active role in their care,” which can lead to better health outcomes.
The interview concludes with Jehi and Martin discussing the future of custom tools in population health. They believe that custom tools will continue to play an increasingly important role in improving the health of entire communities.
