ECARING

The Heart of Better Care Management

Where’s the Data Health Care Needs?

A patient spends a few hours with a doctor

There are (sometimes) records from the doctor’s office

A few days in a hospitalThere are Electronic Health

Records from hospitals

And the rest of their years at homeBut: What happens in the home?

There are no digital home health records.

What You Don’t Know CAN Hurt You

The lack of actionable data from the home means:

Excess Hospital and ER admissions and readmissions Exposing hospitals to significant Medicare penalties

Inability to treat problems to minimize their health and cost impact

Avoidable transitions from the home to institutional care

A lot of unnecessary suffering for patients and their families: 60 million family caregivers, problems cost businesses $34

billion/year
