Caradigm Enables Healthcare Providers to Participate in the Federal Government’s Delivery Reform Incentive Program

Medicaid Incentive Program Participants Can Help Improve Outcomes Required For Reimbursement With Caradigm’s Population Health Solutions

BELLEVUE, WA – Feb. 19, 2015Caradigm, the leader in enterprise population health, today announced a solution package designed to help Performing Provider Systems (PPSs) succeed under the federal government’s Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP) program.

The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) created DSRIP to improve both quality of care and healthcare access for underserved individuals. State governments use funding from CMS to encourage PPSs to participate in this program.

“U.S. healthcare is undergoing a transformation and DSRIP is one example of a program that is focused towards encouraging and incenting innovation in care delivery,” said Brian Drozdowicz, senior vice president, global population health, Caradigm. “Caradigm’s solutions are designed to support specific state-based initiatives such as DSRIP, which includes driving the system and clinical transformations needed to achieve population health.”

PPSs face the complexity of data consolidation and normalization; access to real-time data for performance management; and care intervention for patients. Caradigm’s DSRIP solutions, including healthcare analytics, care and risk management, enable PPSs to put functional population health management tools in place to identify, monitor and report on at-risk patient populations.

Further, Caradigm’s DSRIP solutions are unique as they not only report improvements, but deliver the means to achieve improvement goals, as PPSs are able to identify gaps in care quality improvement and find new ways to engage families and patients in their care. These benefits contribute to the overall DSRIP goals of reducing avoidable hospital use, improving health measures and transforming Medicaid into a more cost-efficient program with improved outcomes.
