Health care payers are increasingly recognizing the benefits of collaborating on patient care. Most believe that collaboration can improve care quality and affordability, increase operational efficiencies and help foster better patient-physician relationships. Unfortunately, many payers see their efforts to collaborate slowed by inadequate and inefficient care management processes. A combination of complicated software, proprietary data, incomplete patient information and disparate technical systems undermines payers’ ability to function at maximum effectiveness. Many are saddled with dated, inflexible tools and resources that create limited patient visibility, disjointed workflows and ineffective communication with physicians and other health care providers. And as these trends persist, health care costs continue to rise while care quality and patient safety decline.

MEDecision’s collaborative health care management solutions allow health care payers to overcome these difficulties and streamline their operations. MEDecision’s innovative technologies enable payers to more easily collaborate on patient care both internally and externally with other care team members — physicians, hospitals, laboratories and even patients themselves. This collaborative approach helps payers improve the quality and affordability of health care, maintain costs, optimize operational efficiencies and strengthen relationships with other health care stakeholders.

MEDecision’s product line features two simplified, smart and state-of-the-art solutions, Alineo™ and Nexalign™. They represent the latest in comprehensive health care management technologies. Alineo is a collaborative health care management platform for addressing case management, disease management and utilization management. It gives health plans advanced technology for analyzing, applying and automating best practices. Nexalign is a collaborative health care information exchange service that enables payers, patients, physicians and other health care providers to securely access and exchange health information. This allows each stakeholder to improve health and business outcomes by maximizing operational and cost efficiencies. Alineo and Nexalign are built on advanced, extensible technology designed to address evolving organizational needs and changing technical requirements.
