Navigant and Geisinger, both companies focusing on optimizing quality and value through initiatives, said they will provide consulting services to healthcare providers seeking to maximize clinical outcomes and efficiencies through care, physician alignment and IT enhancement. The group noted that together, the two organizations will develop distinctive methodologies and processes to improve clinical performance; establish alignment between physicians and their hospital partners; secure increased quality and financial benefits from the deployment of electronic medical records; improve physician practice financial performance; improve reliability of processes; and support prudent use of integrated resources.
By leveraging a combined executive-level leadership team with experience and expertise in integrated delivery systems, the collaboration will help support health system clients in their quest to achieve new levels of clinical and financial success.
"Geisinger is nationally recognized as an exemplary physician-led healthcare care system, and the Navigant team is excited to partner with these clinical innovators in an effort to change the way healthcare is delivered across the nation," said Dave Zito, Managing Director and national leader for Navigant's healthcare practice.
"Together, we believe we can help organizations accelerate the development and implementation of hospital and physician's shared imperative to improve quality, value, care coordination and financial performance," noted Seth Frazier, M.B.A., Vice President, Transformation, Geisinger Health System. "This partnership is a great opportunity to develop strategic and more personalized approaches to delivering sustainable quality performance in an environment demanding cost effectiveness."
"Geisinger's ProvenCare acute episodic and chronic disease management initiative and ProvenHealth Navigator, advanced medical home, have been cited by President Barack Obama and other national leaders when identifying Geisinger as a successful model for national healthcare reform," said Bruce Hamory, M.D., Executive Vice President, Chief Medical Officer Emeritus, Geisinger Health System. "We are excited about the opportunity to partner with one of the nation's leading healthcare management consulting firms to assist other organizations in learning how they can leverage successful models to enhance their businesses, and ultimately improve access to affordable quality healthcare."
