Practicing Prevention in Physician OfficesPreventing Medicare Consumers from Getting Sick The prevention of major illness is the first step in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. It seems so simple, yet every day Medicare consumers who can and should get screenings and vaccinations don’t. There is a very real need for more effective strategies for delivering preventive medicine to those who need it the most.
In the 9th Scope of Work, we are helping health care providers use their electronic health record systems to implement the chronic care model. By focusing on care management processes, we are working to improve the rate of patients that receive:
Breast & colorectal cancer screenings
Influenza & pneumococcal immunizations
