Hospitals and Health System
The House Call Program (HCP) developed by House Call Solutions, has many proven benefits to the hospital and/or health system, which sponsors the program. In addition to providing a valuable public service, which significantly improves community relations, the program also contributes to the financial strength of the health system in several key areas. The two major economic benefits to the sponsor are:
(1) Enhanced capacity management through reduced length of stay and lessened pressure on overburdened EDs, and
(2) enhanced market share in portions of the service area.

Managed Care Organizations
Managed Care Organizations are uniquely positioned to benefit by developing House Call Programs. Enrollees experience improvements in their health and quality of life, and caregivers receive support. The MCO gains a competitive edge in market position and sales, valuable community goodwill, streamlining of services and costs for the populations served, and a source of high quality, appropriate care for enrollees.

Community Service Organizations
Community Service Organizations have a unique opportunity to bring chronic illness management services to residents of the communities served or senior living facilities sponsored. Whether the CSO chooses to develop services independently or in collaboration with an established health care provider in the market, CSOs can:
- Further your mission by offering a much needed service in an economically self-sustaining program
- Complement and enhance existing community outreach efforts, such as skilled home health, personal care assistance, and independent and assisted living communities
Home Health Agencies
In today’s health care environment, medical house call programs and home health agencies should have mutually beneficial, collaborative relationships. Areas of common benefit include referrals, coordinated clinical efforts and enhanced patient outcomes and satisfaction. Whether independent or affiliated with the health system, home heath agencies can benefit in a variety of ways.
- Provide comprehensive and coordinated care for targeted seniors
- Provide an exclusive competitive advantage
- Improve capacity management
- Enhance staff efficiency
- Synergy with other services and programs, such as therapies and hospice
- Reduce re-admissions and their impact on reimbursement
- Enhance OASIS/quality reporting
- Prepare for patient-centered medical home and other payer initiatives
Medical Practices
Medical practices today face multiple challenges that only a few years ago were not imaginable. Prominent among these challenges is serving the low-mobility, frail elderly portion of your patient base. Clinically complex and often disruptive to office productivity, these patients bring not only clinical and financial challenges to the practice, but also increasingly payer demands for outcomes and cost containment.
You may have interest in developing a patient-centered medical home or a house call program. Alternatively, you may believe that your hospital should assist the medical staff with community-based chronic illness management programs to address the challenges this rapidly growing demographic brings – to you practice and your hospital.
Regardless, House Call Solutions understands the unique dynamics of private practice and the complex relationship with your hospital. We have worked successfully in this arena and can assist you to maintain your independence, while gaining access to the tools necessary for success - yours and your patient’s.
