PlayMaker Health Expands Product Offering By Adding Hospice Quality Measures To Its Market Data Solution
(PRWEB) April 19, 2018 -- PlayMaker Health, an industry leading post-acute growth platform serving hundreds of organizations nationwide, today announced it is enhancing its market data solution to include Hospice Quality Measures. This expanded data allows PlayMaker’s hospice customers to identify areas of competitive advantage and demonstrate the positive experiences of the patients and families they work with, leading to new opportunities for market expansion.
“As hospice admissions and utilization continue to increase, so does the importance of demonstrating quality care,” said John Griscavage, chief executive officer at PlayMaker Health. “Strategic providers are leveraging any competitive edge that they have to drive growth. One of the most powerful differentiators is their hospice quality scores, including feedback from the families they’ve served.”
The Hospice Quality Measures data includes Hospice Item Set (HIS) and Hospice Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS) survey scores. Data is available for Medicare-certified hospices through the period of April 1, 2015 to March 31, 2017, and contains nine HIS measures and eight patient experience measures: Treatment preferences, Beliefs/Values Addressed, Pain screening, Pain assessment, Dyspnea screening, Dyspnea treatment, Patient treated with an opioid who are given bowel regiments, Communication with family, Getting timely help, Treating patient with respect, Emotional and spiritual support, Help for pain and symptoms, Training family to care for patient, Rating of hospice care, and Willingness to recommend this hospice.
“PlayMaker allows us to better manage our sales force by providing visibility into what reps are doing in the field,” says Marty Benson, Senior Vice President of Operations at Homestead Hospice and Palliative Care. “It also helps improve our approach to targeting top referring physicians using the market data, which supports our goal of continuous business growth. I would say that PlayMaker is the best industry-specific product available today.”
The addition of Hospice Quality Measures enhances PlayMaker’s existing market data solution, allowing customers to gain complete visibility into their market and the quality scores of their competitors. PlayMaker enables post-acute providers to optimize their growth efforts to focus only on those accounts most likely to deliver a greater return, improving efficiencies and growing referrals with less effort.
