Anchored in Primary Care
Primary care is the cornerstone of QuadMed's workplace health programs.
Many employers invest in components of healthcare management – health risk assessments, disease management, wellness programming, case management, coaching, and so on – only to be disappointed with the results.
Our solution is predicated on the primary care provider and patient relationship. Our physician-driven model provides comprehensive, preventative and coordinated care that is centered on the patient’s needs. It leverages health information technology and other process innovations to assure high-quality, accessible and efficient care.
Our model is particularly beneficial to patients with multiple chronic diseases – a population of patients that is growing rapidly, and consumes a disproportionate share of healthcare resources.
A Prospective Approach
Prospective medicine is an approach that emphasizes disease prediction, prevention, and personalization of treatment.
Unlike traditional employee healthcare models, QuadMed’s patient-centered approach focuses on prevention, wellness and disease management, all delivered from a primary care platform. Use of electronic medical records allows for information to be shared with providers, nurse educators and specialists securely and easily. By leveraging point-of-care decision support tools and use of evidence-based medicine, QuadMed providers prescribe a personalized treatment plan designed to proactively address future health risks.
