Honest Medical Group | June 13, 2022

MedNetOne Health

MedNetOne Health Solutions announced it is the first Michigan physician organization to enter into a joint venture with Nashville-based Honest Medical Group, a physician enablement company aimed at improving the health care experience and reducing costs for members with Medicare Advantage.

The announcement was made by MedNetOne co-founders Ewa Matuszewski, CEO, and Al Juocys, D.O., President and Chief Medical Officer. It follows Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan's announcement that it would form a joint venture with Honest Medical Group to facilitate independent joint ventures between physician groups such as MedNetOne and Honest Medical Group for risk and revenue sharing.

"This is a huge step in the right direction for Medicare Advantage providers and their patients. Transforming primary care is no longer a dream – it's a reality. And we could not be more excited about where the partnership will take us for the benefit of patients."

Dr. Aric Coffman, CEO of Honest Medical Group

MedNetOne has been tightly connected with payors focusing on innovative, patient-centered quality care programs and its capacity to meet quality performance measures reliably. This emphasis encouraged the company to seek a partnership with the Honest Medical Group earnestly.

MedNetOne provides a wide range of services to independent medical practices, advanced practice physicians, mental health specialists, and chiropractors that are intent on running fully integrated, population-based, patient-centric practices with modern technological infrastructure. In addition, 18% of the population served is at least 65 years old and qualified for or enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan.

The company tests, develops, and implements novel care management techniques and expanded multidisciplinary team care services, emphasizing providing care for the complete person to people with chronic illnesses such as diabetes, hypertension, obesity, chronic pain, and asthma. Additionally, the company has expanded its offerings to include palliative care.

During the pandemic, MedNetOne established 120 vaccination clinics in schools and ethnic areas and is a partner of the Detroit Equity Coalition on Covid-19.

The organization has recently launched a mobile clinic for community-based treatment, particularly in marginalized regions, to provide primary care services such as chronic illness care, physicals, blood pressure screenings, and immunizations.

Businesswire | July 05, 2023

Syntellis Performance Solutions, the leading provider of enterprise performance management software, data and intelligence solutions, today announced the availability of Referral Patterns ― a robust module developed to identify referral leakage in a healthcare network. It is a powerful addition to the Axiom™ Market Opportunity Visualization solution designed to deliver executive-level insights and data intelligence to help healthcare leaders determine where, when, and how to grow through easy-to-use visualizations. The Referral Patterns module leverages Syntellis’ proprietary All-Payer Claims Dataset which is critical to identify referral leakage in a hospital’s service area. The module is purposefully designed to align growth and retention strategies with a hospital or health system’s physicians. This makes it easier to map referrals to and from physicians within a service area for improved understanding of physician-specific referral patterns, patient interactions, facility loyalties and health system relationships. “Healthcare leaders need intuitive solutions that provide them the information needed for strategic growth planning, but they are often faced with scarce and complex market data,” said Flint Brenton, CEO of Syntellis Performance Solutions. “Our latest Referral Patterns module ― as part of the Axiom Market Opportunity Visualization solution ― solves this. It is a turning point in our industry as it allows users to quickly transform data into actionable intelligence and insights.” This new module also delivers a streamlined process to view patient cases performed and revenue generated by individual physicians and facilities, even providing breakdowns by care setting, provider specialty, facility, practice affiliation and zip code. In addition to Referral Patterns, other interactive modules within the Axiom Market Visualization solution include: Patient Origin & Out-Migration: an interactive claims visualization dashboard providing insights into where patients seek care, so healthcare finance leaders can identify growth opportunities and address out-migration Market Share & Trending: which uses State-specific data to deliver critical intelligence on a market and patients’ behaviors, so users can identify trends and changes in market demographics, calculate one’s share in the market, and see trends in patient origin, payer mix, and service lines utilized Future modules that will further help hospitals and health systems reduce costs and retain patients in their facilities include: Share of Care: providing a way to visualize the patient care journey across the care continuum including details on all the facilities and physicians that the patient has seen both inside and outside of the organization Profiles: equipping users with the ability to drill down into the data in a service area to develop an individual profile on a specific provider, facility, or procedure code to obtain more granular insights on physician and patient behavior About Syntellis Syntellis Performance Solutions provides innovative enterprise performance management software, data, and intelligence solutions for healthcare organizations.

Together, Gozio and Hyro enable healthcare organizations to automate routine tasks so that staff can devote their full attention to more urgent responsibilities, while also removing access barriers for patients by offering them a wider range of self-service capabilities in one centralized, user-friendly location. The partnership comes amid ballooning demand for AI technologies within healthcare providers' patient interfaces to further reduce inefficiencies and streamline routine tasks in an effort to optimize staff workflows. The healthcare industry, however, is sensitive and heavily regulated, particularly concerning patient data privacy and security. As such, responsible AI implementation to help both staff and patients while still protecting personal data is of paramount importance–a mission to which Gozio and Hyro are no strangers. Hyro reaches 60-70% resolution rates for inbound calls and messages while explaining the outputs of those AI-powered interactions, ensuring a greater degree of accountability and trust surrounding technologies like Large Language Models (LLMs) and Natural Language Understanding (NLU) "With burnout and staffing shortages so widespread in healthcare, any support we can offer to already overloaded contact centers is extremely valuable," said Israel Krush, CEO and Co-Founder, Hyro. "We welcome the opportunity to partner with Gozio, expanding our omnichannel AI-powered conversations relating to scheduling, Rx management, physician search and more to their seamless mobile interfaces. Now, patients can unlock 24/7 access to critical services from their healthcare providers with zero hold times and full confidence in their automated support." "With conversational AI having burst into the public spotlight throughout 2023, we are truly excited to bake Hyro's best-in-class conversational AI solution into our mobile app," said Lee Jones, Chief Product Officer at Gozio Health. "Hyro's explainable, plug-and-play conversational AI tools will allow the healthcare providers we work with to curate the datasets that AI draws upon, save stretched operational dollars, and maintain compliance with industry regulations." Through successful collaborations with leading health systems across the US, Hyro and Gozio will continue to provide healthcare enterprises with an unparalleled, all-in-one mobile app solution, ensuring seamless support and an enhanced user experience. "In today's world, we are used to having information right at our fingertips," said Melanie Husk, SVP, Chief Consumer Officer at Baptist Health. "Through embracing the joint capabilities of these two leading innovators in digital health, we will be able to automatically incorporate the latest developments in AI and mobile technology for the benefit of our patients at Baptist Health. Patients can now request services via phone call, SMS or directly through the mobile app, no matter the time or place, to ensure easy and real-time access to care."
