Value-based care delivery models are forcing providers to think beyond simply filling out their appointment diaries or hospital beds. Payers are imposing them to catch ‘gaps in care’ for their high risk patients and do early interventions. As a good percentage of today’s moderate risk patients become tomorrow’s high risk patients, providers will need to focus on moderate and at-risk populations as well. Essentially, providers are now asked to deliver ‘quality care’ at ‘capped costs’ that are rationed by or tied to ‘population health outcomes.’
Population Health outcomes require modern and connected healthcare technology solutions. However, Healthcare industry is one of the last industries to get on to the technology bandwagon. It’s not uncommon to run into healthcare systems that still store some medical records on paper or have technology solutions that are often disconnected. Although things are changing quickly, healthcare providers, technology vendors and payers are at a critical juncture to make great business model and technology innovation.
AES intends to be a part of such innovation. We are expanding our Healthcare practice at a rapid pace. At a high level, we provide Healthcare IT and Healthcare Advisory services to meet the needs of these modern and changing healthcare delivery models.
We know Healthcare; we know Agile; we know Cloud and we know software product engineering. With deep experience in key product development areas, our consultants can help you design, develop and deploy software solutions to the modern day healthcare clouds or traditional private deployments.
Health technology industry is evolving. Current day value-based care delivery models require health systems to monitor patients inside a hospital, in a community and at a home – pretty much anywhere and everywhere. Building platforms in the cloud is the most efficient way to meet such needs. Our operations consultants know how to deploy, service and migrate private and public clouds.
Current day health providers – Accountable Care Organizations or not and payers need ‘insight’ into critical data to make better clinical, operational and financial decisions. What happened, what is happening and what will happen are the simple questions our BI and Analytics consultants can help you find the answers for.
At AES, we provide technical and leadership services for Healthcare IT implementation projects. With years of experiences around the world, our consultants can help in completing EMR and EHR / HIE projects. We collaborate with your leadership to ensure that clinical, financial, and operational goals are aligned with technology implementations.
AES aspires to be a holistic healthcare consultancy company. So, we intend to provide traditional management consultancy services to our healthcare partners in order to compliment our IT consultancy services. Our Healthcare Management Consultants work hand-in-hand with our IT consultants to ensure that we provide meaningful solutions that result in intended business outcomes.
