PATH ALONG The Under Reporter

The under reporter is typically the patient who's condition has changed beyond the point of the individuals home management capability.  In the clinc visit the patient may verbalize a level of participation that does not match with assessed values.  The assistance of another in the home setting has been proven to help outcomes.

A non threatening presence can tie daily tasks to information to report as a helpful way to establish an effective partnership with your primary medical doctor.  Discussing how information fits in to the chronic disease process to help in monitoring changes of condition. 

The providers role in care assurance becomes more evident when treating an under reporter.  PATH ALONG has a service that can compensate for the informational disconnect which is so often mired within the under reporters ongoing need for care.

Communication and sharing information will become more important at the clinic visit as health planners expand activities designed to reduce hospital readmission rates.    PATH ALONG is an original Wisconsin model that connects inpatient providers to community staff who support the patient during health system transitions.  PATH ALONG is a registered trademark of Home Care Path a leading senior care provider serving south central Wisconsin.
