Bridges Health Partners, LLC is a clinically integrated health care network and accountable care organization with a mission to improve healthcare quality, manage skyrocketing healthcare costs and improve the patient experience. One of the key functions is to utilize data to direct our care management program and meet our mission. Bridges Health Partners currently does not have an efficient process to measure the clinical and financial impact of our care management program. Our decision to grow the program will hinge on the ability to show the value of adding additional care managers and care coordinators to our team. The Learning Factory team would would utilize available data to develop and deliver an efficient, reliable, repeatable method to accurately assess Bridges’ Care Management Program impact on healthcare quality, utilization, and cost. This report would highlight successes and improvement opportunities as well as direct future hiring and maintenance of the program.
