Post-Acute Network Assessment and Optimization

Moving care beyond the hospital walls.

Health care providers are faced with the challenge of improving patient outcomes while contending with a relentless cost pressure. This has raised the need for any provider cost containment strategy to seriously consider how to approach managing the long-term care of patients in lower cost settings while maintaining high quality. The most fundamental requirement then for a successful post-acute care strategy is the quality of your post-acute care network.

COPE Health Solutions assists your team in developing a robust post-acute and community care network by leveraging hospital based case management, primary care providers, long-term care, skilled nursing facility, home health, hospice and other key providers in the care continuum.
