VitreosHealth and CHRISTUS Trinity Mother Frances Health System Share the Successes of Integrating Social Determinants and Predictive Analytics for Care Management

PLANO, Texas, Sept. 21, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Earlier this year, CHRISTUS Trinity Clinic, the Northeast Texas-based provider group and part of CHRISTUS Trinity Mother Frances Health System (CTMFHS), was awarded the American Medical Group Association's (AMGA) prestigious 2018 Acclaim Award. Each year, the award rewards a single medical group or other organized system of care that are bringing the American health care system closer to the ideal delivery model ? one that is safe, effective, patient-centered, timely, efficient and equitable.

CTMFHS selected VitreosHealth as their Predictive Analytics platform in 2016 after a rigorous evaluation of their predictive analytics capabilities, commitment to innovation, and a culture that values partnership. Ultimately, VitreosHealth has experience in building very accurate predictive models that can help organizations target risky patients. Working in conjunction with VitreosHealth, CTMFHS has developed customized, predictive models for each of their value-based contracts. These models provide prioritized lists of patients who are at high-risk of poor outcomes in the next 6-12 months to the population health team.

Not only have VitreosHealth's prioritized patient lists been critical in-patient suspecting, VitreosHealth mapped socio-economic data to clinical data for a 360? view of the patient. Social determinants data, "helps us better manage costs and avoid hospitalizations because we can connect with the patient and take that opportunity to educate them," says Andrea Anderson Administrative Director of Population Health and Primary Care. "That 360? view really has been invaluable in how the navigators educate and inform patients and helped in their approaches when coordinating care for their patients."

VitreosHealth CEO, Jay Reddy says "As organizations start utilizing social determinants data for better predictive analytics in their population health strategies, it's important to demonstrate their effectiveness." VitreosHealth's predictive models have utilized socio-economic data for more than 8 years.
