The Affordable Healthcare Act will continue to be funded, and as much as members of congress pretend to fight over the issue, it will be another albatross in the federal deficit that will probably last decades. Whether you agree with this policy or not, one thing it will do for sure is introduce millions of people into the healthcare system; a system that is cracking under the stress of the shortage of healthcare professionals. Healthcare organizations are trying to meet this flood of patients by implementing new technologies, making their operations as efficient as possible with the resources available to them.
Privia Health has launched the Privia Medical Group by aligning with 143 top providers to create a national high-performance medical practice. This new group is designed with a high-performance and sophisticated medical practice taking into account the challenges the industry will face today and in the future with next generation technology.
By combining its resources with national players and leading health plans, Privia Medical Group will set out to improve the quality of care patients receive with health management programs, a team-based approach and the latest technology.
Privia Health has its own cloud-based technology and population health management platform. This allows doctors and patients to collaborate with an accessible platform so individual action plans can be taken as soon as possible. This not only ensures the best possible prognosis for the patient in the long run, but it saves large amounts of money for the organization. With this platform patients are more engaged in their own care, and using Privia's team of nurse care managers, health coaches, dieticians, and fitness trainers, they will be able to manage their overall health.
"With the right technologies, resources, reimbursement systems, and partnerships with forward-thinking health plans, we can unleash the power of great doctors to transform medicine and deliver value. We're proud to be offering top doctors an opportunity to remain in an independent, high-performance physician group that rewards them for living by their Hippocratic Oath, by taking great care of patients," said Jeff Butler, Privia Health's Chairman and CEO.
