Proven Strategies to Drive Change

 

Hospitals and health systems must strategically create strong partnerships within their post acute community including Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF), Home Health Agencies (HHA), Hospice Services (HS) and Primary Care Providers (PCP) to accomplish their Value Based Purchasing goals. Our team of business leaders and clinical provider specialists can assist your company in developing and utilizing Preferred Provider Network (PPN) agreements within your community. PACT Consulting will evaluate your specific Health System needs, support you in starting or growing your PPN and assist you in educating your health system staff on how to develop partnerships and implement proven strategies in the post-acute care transitions arena. Focused health care systems who have implemented some of our strategies and initiatives have seen outcomes such as;
