Get ROI even before POC? Kiowa Manor Tells How.
Posted on Tue, Dec 06, 2011
Kiowa Manor is a really interesting case study from an Return on Investment (ROI) perspective. With most electronic medical record (EMR) implementations, providers focus on point-of-care as the well spring of ROI, due to justifiably higher RUG scores that result in higher reimbursements. Kiowa Manor taught us that if we focus on just point-of-care, we're really selling ourselves short. With this case study, you'll read about how Kiowa Manor improved assessments, and as a result, is delivering higher quality care with great financial returns to the tune of $15 PPD. And point-of-care is yet to come.
In the state of Kansas, $15 PPD is a really big deal - considering the 11% cut the Feds took this past October, coupled with the 10% cut in Medicaid Kansas endured last year. So kudos to a provider who is fighting back by empowering staff with technology tools to boost efficiency and free up more time for direct care.
