Wisconsin's PATH ALONG model senses the number one resource on the planet today is digital information data. The collection, storage and sharing of information is the primary business of today's global markets.
HIMSS is a global organization (52 years old) focused on information technology to improve health care. HIMSS has offices in Chicago, and around the globe. HIMSS hosted an annual gathering (HIMSS13) held in Ernest N. Nimorial Convention Center New Orleans from March 3, 2013 to March 7, 2013.
Part of the HIMSS 13 gathering involved the announcement of the Commonwell Health Alliance. Six large service providers have contracted to share a common electronic health record system. The Commonwell Health Alliance has been formed by McKesson, Cerner, Greenway, Allscripts, Athenahealth, and Relayhealth to accelerate the flow of collected and stored information and improve utilization in the health care delivery setting.
The Commonwell Alliance will exchange health information observing developed industry standards across the network of participating medical care organizations. Hospitals, clinics, and health plans connected to the network can easily access and share information.
Wisconsin's PATH ALONG model helps individuals with transitions of care. Registration is a primary inpatient transition.
Hospital registration (transition) Clinic registration
Dynamic component- valid medical pay sources, formulary constraints
Rationale: Knowledge of payment informs choice and helps prevent rehospitalization.
In the PATH ALONG model patients are reminded that electronic health record systems that support one hospital can be different from another hospital. Electronic health record systems that support one clinic location can be different from another clinic setting. An individual's means to pay for the health care can change between visits.
Wisconsin's PATH ALONG model takes an advanced approach to supporting seniors during inpatient and outpatient provision of care through the medical system. PATH ALONG supports seniors in south central Wisconsin. Call 608-432-4286 or email lkutzke@homecarepath.onmicrosoft.com to schedule service.
