Some live key takeaways from our webinar with Caitlin Synovec from National Health Care for the Homeless Council: ✔ Hospitals can provide consistent, predictable funding for programs through contracts and rates. ✔ Even in states where other funding mechanisms exist or are in development, hospital funding supports operational costs and non-billable services. ✔ Medical respite can contribute to hospital goals such as decreased length of stay and reduce readmission rates.

Attain recently led a system-wide conversation to explore what a 21st century hospital needs to look like for Urgent and Emergency Care. Here's some of the key components we identified: ✅ Access designed to suit modern lifestyles: working with patient groups will help establish the best approaches to accessing support, factoring in digital and community-based diagnostic solutions as well as wider local health organisations ✅ Right time and right place to avoid emergency departments: allowing all clinicians to make referrals to ED alternatives through a centralised approach, such as urgent community response, would grant patients access to UTCs without an ED-only referral ✅ Urgent Treatment Centres: through working with GPs, a right-sized primary care UTC provision could be established to provide minor illness and minor injury support with the required diagnostics ✅ Demand management: providing interventions, such as 111 and child health app 'HandiApp', will help prevent unwarranted demand for accessing UEC. Targeting walk-ins and addressing this cohort's needs differently will ensure only urgent and emergency cases attend ED. To find out how we could drive these crucial strategic discussions for your health and care system, get in touch with us at [email protected].

President at CareAllies – a Cigna company | Focused on connecting care between patients, providers, and payers through value-based care solutions
The infographic from the American Hospital Association included in this article captures the singular role that community hospitals play in the regions they serve. But even in the face of these powerful statistics, there is no way to fully articulate just how great their impact is on the happiness of the people who receive care, but also everyone who knows – and all too often takes for granted – the fact that exceptional care is available. The peace of mind that community hospitals provide cannot be overstated. This is one of the many reasons I believe it is so important that we embrace #valuebasedcare that rewards community hospitals for what they naturally strive to achieve – to help entire communities gain greater health.
