NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--VirtualHealth today announced Innovation Care Partners (ICP), a clinically integrated network and accountable care organization, is live on the HELIOS® platform, the leading SaaS care management solution. Serving ICP’s 175,000 covered lives and more than 100 care managers, VirtualHealth’s technology has enabled intelligent workflow automation, increased productivity, and the system-wide data exchange using Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standards. ICP selected HELIOS as the best available technology to scale its services and optimally manage its patient population.
The HELIOS platform is equipping ICP with an award-winning enterprise solution that facilitates greater coordination and communication across the patient’s entire care team – from primary care providers to mental health caregivers and all touchpoints in between – and builds stronger relationships with patients. ICP is also leveraging HELIOS’s ground-breaking templating and configuration capabilities to build targeted care manager assessments unique to the network’s population and that automatically trigger workflows, ranging from referrals to tasks to care plan auto-population.
“At ICP, we have a very specific vision for continuing to elevate the high-quality support we offer both our members and our care teams, and VirtualHealth has been instrumental in powering new efficiencies and data-driven workflows to achieve this vision,” said Karen Vanaskie, DNP, MSN, RN, chief clinical officer, Innovation Care Partners. “From day one of our implementation, the experts at VirtualHealth have demonstrated a keen understanding for the needs of our market and we are already seeing tremendous results from the partnership.”
ICP employed stringent criteria in its selection process and ultimately chose VirtualHealth because it is the only solution that:
- Supports various business rules, workflows and care plans without the need for custom development
- Enables point-and-click development of templated assessments, including mapping, scoring, and branching logic alongside intelligent automation
- Offers care managers an intuitive user experience that allows them to work efficiently by accessing any part of a case record with one or two clicks
- Integrates with multiple data sources and standards with single sign-on and offers unprecedented ease-of-use
“We are thrilled to be working with such a forward-thinking organization as ICP to transform their technology backbone and to demonstrate conclusively that regulatory compliance and improved results are not opposing concepts,” said Adam Sabloff, CEO of VirtualHealth. “We are excited about the results that ICP has already achieved by using HELIOS and look forward to supporting our shared mission of making healthcare more proactive for years to come.”
The VirtualHealth HELIOS platform fills an important void in the healthcare ecosystem, ingesting medical, behavioral, social, and service data to empower care and utilization managers with a whole person view. With the availability of FHIR-based integrations, VirtualHealth is making it even easier for healthcare organizations to ensure timely and compliant data exchange, and for external systems to connect to its rich datasets. ICP joins a growing list of innovative healthcare organizations that have selected the HELIOS platform to support their triple aim of high-quality patient experience, lower costs and improved patient outcomes.
FHIR is the new, revolutionary Health Level Seven (HL7) standard that promotes interoperability among healthcare organizations. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) issued an Interoperability and Patient Access final rule that establishes vital policies based on the FHIR standards intended to break down barriers among healthcare silos and enable better patient, provider and payer access to healthcare information.
