Patients consistently describe feeling incomplete. The patient is not sure where they reside in this process. Public funded medical programs are getting leaner, discharge expectations are occurring sooner, communication between providers seems too loose.
The core task of care coordination is an ability to verbalize the discipline to discipline hand off during an inpatient stay or an outpatient treatment process. Understanding discipline to discipline patient flow improves identification of gaps (evidence based) that contribute to preventable hospital readmissions.
Wisconsin's PATH ALONG App http://appsmakerstore.com/appim/j6kcdet8xvwk4s delivers a comprehensible over view of the discipline to discipline approach to the movement of patients through the medical process. This is the role of care assurance as it relates to the current function of patient flow through a specific hospital, medical delivery setting. Detailed monitoring of the flow from inpatient to community recovery improves accountability.
Looking at patient flow across disciplines moves the health care facility from trying unsuccessfully to delegate the task of accountability. Observing actual process through the PATH ALONG model can help committees better organize solutions that meet fiscal and quality approval.
The goal is to improve patient outcomes, save the overall system money, and deliver an impressive post hospital recovery experience. Home Care Path and the Wisconsin PATH ALONG model remind us there is always more we can do.
