Building a Diabetes Medical Home: The Impact on Practice Work Flow, Patient Outcomes and Healthcare Costs, a 90-minute webinar on CD-ROM
Healthcare Intelligence Network, March 2008, Pages: 90
More than 20.8 million people in the United States have diagnosed or undiagnosed diabetes. Since the 1980s, the prevalence of diabetes in the United States has more than doubled and is expected to affect 39 million Americans by 2050. Payers are increasingly recognizing the impact of diabetes on the health and productivity of their members and there is growing evidence that effective management of diabetes reduces complications and reduces healthcare costs. Several organizations are reporting success in improving diabetes care coordination through the use of medical homes.
During Building a Diabetes Medical Home: The Impact on Practice Work Flow, Patient Outcomes and Healthcare Costs, a 90-minute webinar on March 19, 2008 available on CD-ROM, an expert panel of speakers provided the inside details on how they have implemented the medical home model to improve outcomes for diabetes care.
Dr. James Barr, medical director, Partners in Care, and Roberta Burgess, nurse case manager, Community Care Plan of Eastern North Carolina, described how their organizations have structured the care provided to diabetes patients through the medical home model and the impact it has had on patient outcomes and healthcare costs, including:
- Identifying which practices can support the medical home model;
- Implementing care coordination strategies to service the diabetic patient;
- Measuring the outcomes and cost savings from diabetes patients treated through a medical home;
- Designing effective practice work flow to support the medical home model; and
-Developing effective reimbursement strategies for the medical home.
