Tele-Care Coordination is Available for your Patients
“Tele-Care
Coordination” services are available to your patients by referral. This
service aims to provide more care in the home environment, allowing us to
visualize the patient and their surroundings for greater quality of care
and easier understanding on both ends.
Using Persivia,
our Population Health Software, patients are connected to our licensed Care
Coordinators who assist with disease education and management, routine
questions, and social determinant of health issues. This attention to
detail ensures patients are experiencing the most positive outcome after
receiving care from our providers.
Tele-Care
Coordination requires the patient to have a SMART device such as IPAD,
tablet, or phone. However, if your patient does not have a device or Wi-Fi
capabilities, MPP has data-enabled iPads available for patient’s use, free
of charge.
Ideal Referrals
include:
-
Patients
with chronic disease
-
Patients
who would benefit from weight, blood pressure, dietary intake, or glucose
monitoring
-
Patients
with suspected Social Determinant of Health issues
