NASHVILLE, Tenn.—February 16, 2017—naviHealth, a Cardinal Health company and leader in post-acute care management and care transitions for health plans and health systems, will exhibit an inclusive suite of decision support tools focusing on post-acute care at the 2017 Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) annual conference from February 19 to 23 in Orlando, Florida.

naviHealth’s unique blend of clinical support services, scalable technology, and advisory solutions helps health plans and health systems improve patient outcomes while optimizing clinical and financial results.

“Clinicians, hospitals, and post-acute care providers use naviHealth’s set of decision support tools to ensure patients receive an individualized discharge and care plan that is tailored to their needs,” said Clay Richards, CEO of naviHealth. “Our solution stands out from other decision support tools by emphasizing post-acute care transition planning, one of the biggest drivers of health care costs.”
naviHealth’s decision support tools help identify patient needs, predict outcomes, and optimize post-acute care transitions. These proprietary solutions allow clinicians to initiate transitions earlier and patients to begin rehab faster, leading to reductions in length of stay and readmissions and improved functional gain. The decision-support tools complement naviHealth’s discharge workflow tools used by hundreds of hospitals and are integrated with nearly all EMR systems.

The suite includes:
• nH Identify, which uses information gathered at admission to score patients based on anticipated post-acute needs and readmission risk to provide a recommended level of care. nH Identify generates assessments and care plans through a combination of predictive algorithms focused on clinical, psychosocial, and demographic information.
• nH Predict, which predicts an individual’s outcome in various settings of post-acute care. nH Predict uses clinical and functional data sets matched against an extensive database of individual patient records to recommend optimal care setting, therapy plan, and expected patient improvements and needs post-discharge.
• nH Perform, which uses a proprietary algorithm to assess the quality and performance of post-acute care providers. Using nH Perform, hospitals can develop a high-performing, high-quality network of post-acute providers in order to match patients’ unique needs with the highest quality providers.
