Mount Carmel Health Partners in Columbus, Ohio, has chosen MedVentive, Inc.'s Population Manager(TM) to support the group's clinical integration initiative, and to help partner physicians and the Mount Carmel Health System improve patient care and clinical outcomes through quality improvement programs that can be tracked and measured via the solution. As part of its clinical integration program, Mount Carmel Health Partners is implementing physician-directed quality improvement programs, focusing on improving patient care and clinical outcomes. All providers are accountable for delivering demonstrated value to patients, payers and the community. Mount Carmel Health Partners defines value as the quality, service and outcomes providers deliver, as compared to the overall cost of care. In turn, this quantified value is used to benchmark provider performance and determine pay-for-performance reimbursement. With MedVentive Population Manager, a physician and his or her staff can now identify patients with a chronic condition, such as diabetes, and automatically do outreach to this group of patients that helps to drive care compliance and improve their overall health.

Massachusetts businessman and former Republican gubernatorial nominee Charlie Baker will join the MedVentive, Inc. governing board effective immediately. Mr. Baker is currently Entrepreneur-in-Residence at General Catalyst Partners, a venture capital and growth equity firm. In addition, he serves on the governing boards at The Schwartz Center for Compassionate Healthcare in Boston and HealthView.

East End Health Alliance and its member Hospitals, Eastern Long Island Hospital, Peconic Bay Medical Center, and Southampton Hospital, have entered into an agreement with MedVentive, Inc. to provide East End Physician Hospital Organization (PHO) on Long Island, New York with MedVentive Population Manager(TM). Formed by East End Health Alliance, East End PHO is intended to create a clinically integrated system of healthcare delivery for residents of Eastern Long Island. The group, whose startup costs are funded by a federal grant, seeks to improve healthcare outcomes while reducing costs. East End PHO has chosen MedVentive Population Manager(TM) to allow its participating providers, once the system is satisfactorily implemented, to share information at the point of care, monitor performance against evidence-based medicine and best practices, and provide real-time feedback to physicians. The group will initially collaborate on the care of diabetic patients and later expand to the treatment of other conditions. MedVentive Population Manager supports clinical integration and population management. With its point-of-care registry, MedVentive Population Manager offers robust data acquisition and aggregation, provider and patient attribution, point of care decision support, and quality reporting (including PQRI). Care management workflows and patient outreach tools streamline provider tasks, distribute work among the care team, and facilitate patient follow-up communications.
