Problem
Healthcare organizations struggle to coordinate care across the continuum, particularly during patient transitions between acute and post-acute settings. Fragmented communication, manual discharge processes, and limited visibility into post-acute provider quality lead to delayed discharges, avoidable readmissions, and unnecessary emergency department utilization. These inefficiencies undermine both patient outcomes and financial performance under value-based payment models.
Solution
WellSky CarePort delivers an EHR-agnostic, cloud-based care coordination platform that connects hospitals, health systems, payers, and post-acute providers. The platform enables providers to identify, track, and manage patients across care settings with real-time data and alerts. Care teams use the discharge planning module to expedite patient transitions to appropriate next levels of care, leveraging a national network of post-acute providers. The platform also supports ED optimization by preventing rehospitalizations and reducing unnecessary admissions, while transitional care management tools connect with patients post-discharge to drive revenue and reduce readmissions. For payers and ACOs, the platform provides visibility into post-acute networks and member utilization trends, facilitating risk-based population management and quality improvement.
Target Audience
The platform serves hospitals and health systems, accountable care organizations (ACOs), physician groups, payers, and post-acute providers including skilled nursing facilities and home health agencies. The company reports that thousands of providers across the country use its solutions.
