Difference between revisions of "E Interventions"

E Interventions are patient interventions that help manage a patient's health care and/or health which:

typically do not receive reimbursement from traditional health insurance
likely will improve patient outcomes and reduce overall cost

These interventions typically don’t qualify for Medicare Part A (hospital), Part B (physician), Part C (Medicare Advantage) or Part D (medications) direct reimbursement. They can be described as Medicare Part E Interventions as there are no Medicare Part E reimbursements or "E - none of the above". Most health plans are based on Medicare fee schedules, so they typically do not provide reimbursement for E Interventions. E Interventions may be delivered exactly the same way as clinical interventions that get reimbursed (like home health), yet they come with stipulations that may not suit the patient's situation. For example, a patient needs to stay 3 nights in a hospital to qualify reimbursement for home health services. If home health services are provided, they may not be reimbursed even if it is what the patient needs to improve their recovery. Another example is a physician speaking on the phone to their patient, which typically do not receive reimbursement for the physicians's time.

The types of "E Interventions" include:

E Intervention Programs - team-based patient focused programs designed to meet specific needs of patients based on the program's criteria. These programs are integrated with the patient's care plan continuing for either for a duration or as long as the patient meets the criteria. The criteria includes risk scores, episode, health conditions and determinants.

E Intervention Programs

New healthcare reimbursement models attribute patients to primary care physicians and healthcare systems for episodes of care. The following Care Management programs are often provided to patients to improve their overall health and healthcare outcomes. These programs include care plan development, administrative support in booking appointments, finding services, coordinating medical services and reminding patients. See which E Intervention Programs work.

Behavioral Health & Primary Care Integration

Screen patient via Primary Care Physician Offices' Clinical Staff
Engage patients to ensure followup with Behavioral Health providers
Collaboration between Primary Care and Behavioral Health to ensure best treatment and patient activation
