PLEASANTON, Calif., Oct. 25, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Healthcare Triangle’s expertise in MEDITECH helped Lane Regional set up new functionality in MEDITECH Expanse for Chronic Care Management (CCM).
Lane Regional Medical Center, the primary healthcare resource for more than 200,000 neighbors located throughout Zachary, LA, and surrounding communities, in their initial rollout of the program used spreadsheets to manually track patients and monthly time sheets. In this manual process, they faced challenges in enhancing care between visits and automating charge capture. The hospital looked for a reliable MEDITECH partner to implement a comprehensively integrated CCM solution to improve care for patients with chronic conditions and increase value-based reimbursement.
Healthcare Triangle’s MEDITECH Ready-Certified consultants assisted in setting up new functionality in MEDITECH Expanse for Chronic Care Management. The implementation enabled the client’s care managers to refine the provider document processing by identifying gaps and leveraging patient data while eliminating manual processes and keeping patients on track.
“Lane Regional selected HCTI to be their MEDITECH consulting partner. HCTI experts went above and beyond to deliver a solution leveraging MEDITECH functionality to streamline Case Management workflow. Kelly was amazing to work with. She brought so much knowledge to the table and helped us refine our documentation and processes,” says Amy Rome, RN, BSN, Chronic Care Management Nurse Navigator, Lane Regional Medical Center.
HCTI further assisted in implementing the CCM functionality to automate CCM billing and time-based monthly charging. HCTI was also instrumental in improving the documentation requirements by implanting the Care Plan feature to track health concerns, interventions, and outcomes.
With Healthcare Triangle’s MEDITECH Expanse expertise, Lane Regional achieved:
- Improved CCM efficiency and workflows.
- Structured recording of patient health information.
- Quick turnaround time, taken live in around 4 weeks.
- Created a centralized list of patients allowing nursing care managers to better care for their patient’s health.
