Evaluate Practice Performance Metrics for eConsult Programs: Improve Patient Access to Specialty Care
With considerable time and effort, at-risk practices identify patients at high risk of serious health events. We want to use this same information to develop an eConsult strategy. To increase patient access to specialty care, consider which specialties have: long appointment wait times, higher costs, conditions easily managed by PCPs and do not need a face-to-face visit.
Using eConsults in these situations will drive cost savings, improve outcomes and decrease the risk of:
- ED use – a costly alternative to a specialist visit.
- Unscheduled or canceled specialty care appointments.
- Boomerang appointments to primary care.
Increasing access to specialty care is the goal. Together, we can track and communicate which specialties are most:
- Needed by the patients you serve
- Likely to improve outcomes
- Appropriate for eConsult
- Valuable to your practice
