At #AcentraHealth , we believe the power of #AI is its ability to help people focus on what they do best and enable #GHHS leaders to focus on #AcceleratingBetterOutcomes . This is why we launched intelligent document processing (IDP) capabilities with Amazon Web Services (AWS) allowing us to automate data extraction and minimize manual entry errors, revolutionizing how state and federal health agencies manage large volumes of data. Read the AWS case study to understand how we: ▪️ Processed 35 million Medicare documents ▪️ Reduced document processing time by 50% ▪️ Lowered costs by 40% https://hubs.li/Q02YcVFQ0

Addressing rising-risk #Medicaid patients before they become high utilizers of acute care is crucial to improving health outcomes and reducing #healthcare costs.

#ICYMI : Nearly 10% of full-benefit #Medicaid beneficiaries disenroll and re-enroll in services within 12 months, disrupting care continuity and impacting health outcomes. A recent MACPAC - Medicaid and CHIP Payment and Access Commission study found that implementing 12-month continuous eligibility significantly reduces this churn and ensures more stable access to care. But this starts with a comprehensive Medicaid eligibility #assessment that evaluates the member’s clinical and social needs. With more than 700,000 assessments conducted annually, our experience shows a member-centric approach that combines human expertise and technology that maximizes impact and improves access to support and services. Check out this 3-minute article with best practices for running a member-centric Medicaid program for your state: https://hubs.li/Q02VKJfY0 Don’t forget to check out the MACPAC research at: https://hubs.li/Q02VKt0f0

Nearly 80% of states are calling for better data sharing as a way to effectively tackle Social Determinants of Health ( #SDOH ). As states ramp up efforts through Section 1115 waivers, it’s critical that #Medicaid agencies choose a partner with a track record of harnessing #DataIntegration to effectively implement SDOH solutions and boost #HealthEquity . #AcentraHealth and the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) are already working to implement the state’s 1115 Health Related Social Needs waiver. This is the first program in the U.S. to introduce Medicaid funding for interventions that address social needs related to housing, nutrition, and climate change to improve health outcomes and lower program costs. Read more about our work with OHA and our approach to ensuring states can successfully implement Section 1115 waivers for their populations. https://hubs.li/Q02VhQyr0 . #1115Waivers #HRSN #AcceleratingBetterOutcomes
