The operational margins of healthcare institutions nationwide, encompassing acute, subacute, and independent living facilities, have been adversely affected by reductions in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements and enrollment challenges. Furthermore, the lack of insurance among patients and issues related to social determinants of health (SDOH) have intensified these difficulties. We provide a thorough assessment, recommendations and clinical support to these challenges, with the goal of improving the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) efficiency, reducing costs, enhancing clinical outcomes, ensuring safety, and encouraging community engagement.
Margin for Mission: Using strategy to enhance Direct Patient Care Services and Value-Based Purchasing reimbursement while reducing penalties from the Hospital Readmission Reduction Program
Our strategy aims to minimize hospital readmissions by reducing 30-day avoidable readmissions and addressing social determinants of health. We aim to lower Medicare Spending Per Beneficiary (MSPB) by decreasing the length of stay and improving CMS Hierarchical Condition Category (HCC) scores. Additionally, we seek to enhance the HCAHPS patient experience and standardize clinical support to improve quality and reduce provider burden. Our goal is not only to increase direct patient service revenue but also to secure reimbursement from the CMS Value-Based Purchasing Program, which withholds 2% of base operating DRG payments from the Medicare Inpatient Prospective Payment System (IPPS) base operating payments, and to avoid the 3% Hospital Readmission Reduction Program (HRRP) penalty from all Medicare IPPS base operating payments due to an Excess Readmission Ratio (ERR) compared to socioeconomically matched peers.

Your Questions, Answered
Why is your Telemedicine service different from others?
What distinguishes our telemedicine services from others is the caliber of our healthcare providers. Our physicians are esteemed members of the medical community, with their credentials rigorously peer-reviewed and highly endorsed by fellow medical professionals. Each physician holds Board Certification from the American Board of Internal Medicine and possesses unrestricted medical licenses. Furthermore, they have accumulated a minimum of five years of clinical practice and teaching experience.
Is it possible to order prescriptions and arrange laboratory and imaging tests for patients irrespective of their insurance status?
Indeed, we facilitate the ordering of prescriptions and ancillary tests through in-network providers. For prescriptions, we utilize GoodRx, and for laboratory and imaging services, we collaborate with centers that offer substantial discounts to patients without insurance coverage.
Are your physicians equipped to provide medical care to patients who speak only Spanish? Do you accommodate patients residing outside the State of Illinois?
Our healthcare providers are proficient in both English and Spanish and possess experience in delivering care to the African-American community, among others. We provide services to patients who are physically present in the State of Illinois at the time of their telemedicine consultation.
