Is your oncology practice ready for the Enhancing Oncology Model (EOM)? Navigating Care helps you manage your patient population in four key ways:
1. Routine Monitoring of Cancer-Related Complications and Health-Related Social Needs (HRSNs)
Navigating Care’s Health Tracker ePRO program is the most broadly adopted ePRO solution in the oncology market. Your staff can customize a schedule for patients, and Health Tracker will prompt them to provide an update on their medication adherence or any current symptoms based on the validated PRO-CTCAE instrument. In addition, the NCCN® Distress Thermometer and Problem List gathers information about patients’ Health-Related Social Needs (HRSNs) and distress level. These ePRO responses generate alerts to help clinicians identify opportunities for intervention or adjustments to care that have been proven to deliver better patient outcomes.
2. Early Intervention that Identifies At-Risk Patients Faster
Navigating Care’s Care Management platform empowers clinic staff to easily review, assign, resolve and document patient incidents. Your staff can also manage patients’ symptoms through our nationally recognized clinical symptom pathway guidelines. Using the Navigating Care technology, clinic staff can help patients navigate their symptoms and treatment, send home care instructions to assist patients in managing their cancer treatment, and schedule immediate or follow-up appointments to avoid costly emergency room and hospital visits. The integration of our ePRO platform, Health Tracker, with our Care Management system enables clinic staff to immediately prioritize and respond to toxicities based on patient reported symptoms or signs of distress.
3. Track EOM Required Patient Care Activities Using Navigating Care
With our Care Management platform, clinic staff can add patients to the EOM population and monitor insights about their team’s work, including time spent and activities performed per patient. Activity tracking integrates effortlessly into the patient management workflow, optimizing for clinic efficiency.
4. Gather deep EOM-related insights through Navigating Care Analytics
NC Insights, our analytics dashboard, provides staff with valuable data to ensure the successful implementation of the HRSN and ePRO requirements. Flexibility within the platform also allows users to create customized visualizations and reports for deep, practice-specific insights. Regular awareness and review of the data surfaces performance improvement opportunities. Additionally, the patient care activities roll up seamlessly into reporting that can be used for MEOS payments as needed.
How Navigating Care Supports EOM
| Enhancing Oncology Model | How Navigating Care Supports the Clinic | |
|---|---|---|
| ePROs | Electronic collection of patient-reported outcomes. | NCCN® Distress Assessment gathers information about patients’ Health-Related Social Needs (HRSN) and distress level. Help clinicians identify opportunities for intervention or adjustments to care to help improve outcomes. Health Tracker prompts patients to share medication adherence or any current symptoms based on the validated PRO-CTCAE instrument. |
| Population | Seven cancer types:
| Care Management module helps providers designate and identify EOM patients in Workboards for appropriate management and tracking. |
| MEOS Payment | $70/member/month for Medicare. $100/member/month for dually eligible Medicare and Medicaid. | Care Management and Health Tracker seamlessly integrate required activities into patient management workflows. |
| Health Equity | Screening for health-related social needs. | Health Tracker for ePROs gathers relevant social and environmental information that impact adherence and outcomes. NCCN® Distress Survey facilitates HRSN screening. |
| Risk Arrangement | Two risk arrangement options, both requiring that the clinics absorb downside risk. | Enable clinics to effectively manage patient issues and proactively intervene with patients to avoid costly ED and hospitalization fees. |
