New WellSky® Patient Panel Enhances Care Continuity and Outcomes with 360° View
WellSky, a global leader in health and community care technology, has announced the launch of an innovative new patient panel, exclusively available in the WellSky CarePort Connect solution. This new feature will provide healthcare providers with comprehensive, real-time insights into their patient populations, enabling them to make more informed decisions about care delivery. With expanded visibility into patient data, providers will be better equipped to ensure that patients receive timely, appropriate care in the most suitable setting.
As value-based care becomes more prevalent, healthcare providers face increasing pressure to improve clinical outcomes while controlling the total cost of care. A key element in achieving these objectives is enhancing care coordination across the entire patient journey. WellSky, a leading healthcare technology company, has launched a new patient panel designed to provide providers with a comprehensive view of their patient population. This innovative feature, part of the WellSky CarePort Connect solution, offers real-time insights and enables providers to deliver more effective care across the continuum.
The patient panel is designed to help providers identify patients who require direct intervention before, during, and after care transitions. By strengthening patient engagement during critical care events, the panel supports providers in monitoring and guiding care transitions, ensuring that patients receive the right care at the right time, no matter where they are in the healthcare system. This proactive approach improves patient outcomes and reduces gaps in care, which is particularly important in value-based care models.
“Providers are facing increasing challenges in managing complex patient populations while delivering high-quality care in a rapidly evolving healthcare environment,” said Tim Ashe, Chief Clinical Officer at WellSky. “The patient panel provides a complete view of real-time insights for all their patients, right at their fingertips, allowing them to focus on what matters most—delivering exceptional care to their patients.”
The patient panel is highly customizable and offers a 360° real-time view of an organization’s patients, broken down by care setting. It also highlights patient cohorts tied to clinical and operational goals, enabling providers to better manage and prioritize care. Providers can easily see where patients are located, whether in acute care or post-acute settings, and can anticipate when patients will be discharged. This level of visibility helps providers be more proactive in managing care, ensuring that patients receive the necessary interventions before discharge and as they move through the care continuum.
One of the panel’s standout features is its predictive care planning tools, which allow providers to track patients’ rising risk and anticipate their evolving needs. These tools enable more targeted care planning, which helps providers focus on the patients who need the most attention. The panel’s ability to tailor views to clinical roles also ensures that care teams can filter by assigned patients or specific patient attributions, allowing them to monitor and intervene when needed. This focused approach helps eliminate the guesswork involved in patient engagement and ensures providers meet program goals while delivering high-quality care.
In addition to streamlining care coordination, the patient panel provides actionable insights through highlighted workflows, outstanding tasks, and care team discussions. By centralizing this critical information, the panel makes it easier for providers to make informed decisions, improve communication, and enhance collaboration within the care team. This all-in-one view reduces administrative burdens, allowing providers to allocate resources more efficiently and spend more time delivering patient-centered care.
The WellSky CarePort Connect solution, and the patient panel in particular, empowers providers to provide high-quality care while controlling costs, a crucial aspect of the value-based care model. By improving communication and collaboration between care teams, enhancing care coordination, and enabling providers to take a more proactive approach to patient management, WellSky’s patient panel helps organizations meet the growing demands of modern healthcare while improving patient outcomes.
