Data That's Timely and Insightful from PointClickCare

Avoiding readmissions after acute care is just one manifestation of the move to value-based care, according to Shweta Shanbhag, Director Product Management at PointClickCare in a recent interview with Healthcare IT Today. She points out at least one out of every five Medicare acute stays results in admittance to a skilled nursing facility. It's important across the board for different teams to work together.

She recommends that the various providers who are partnering in value-based care agree on a small set of shared metrics. These feed into shared goals of reducing readmissions and improving care.
