In an article for DOTmed HealthCareBusiness News, Dr. Brian Carpenter addresses the growing demand, workforce shortages, and financial pressures facing long-term care (LTC) facilities. He highlights how partnering with an accountable care organization (ACO) designed specifically for LTC can help facilities navigate these challenges through enhanced care coordination, 24/7 telemedicine support, and data-driven performance management.
By leveraging physician-led remote support and sharing actionable data, LTC facilities can reduce unnecessary emergency department visits, streamline operations, and ultimately improve outcomes for complex Medicare populations.
