The Care Gap significantly impacts patients, clinicians, payors, and hospitals. Each encounters difficulties and frustrations in the Gap that can be solved with thoughtful and data-driven interventions.

Without Care in the Gap

With Care in the Gap

Patients

  • Continuing improvement
  • Prescriptions to fill
  • Finding a primary care physician
  • Scheduling a timely follow-up
  • Engaging in follow-up care
  • Better outcomes
  • Follow-up support for questions and concerns
  • New relationships with primary care physician
  • Timely follow-up care

Clinicians

  • Increased demand and stress in the ED
  • Unsolvable situations where patients have no new solutions after a second visit
  • Decreased patient trust, more frustration, and less satisfaction
  • Better care for patients after an ED encounter
  • Reduce unnecessary ED visits
  • Keep clinicians out of unsolvable situations; empower solutions
  • Decreased risk
  • Increased ED capacity, better use of resources

Hospitals and Health Systems

  • Cost of repeat visits
  • Decreased patient satisfaction
  • Complex post-acute care coordination
  • Increased readmission mortality rates
  • Improve quality of care across the care continuum
  • Retain and gain new market share
  • Increase patient satisfaction
  • Better performance in value-based models

Payors

  • High cost of post-acute care
  • Cost of avoidable ED visits and hospitalizations
  • Lack of networks and infrastructure for care coordination
  • Increased member satisfaction
  • Gain competitive advantage by empowering members to navigate effectively
  • Decreased cost
  • Better performance in value-based models of care
