Provider Insider

Introduction

| Issue No.

It has been a busy few months in our network, and we have much good work to report out on.

 

First, we are starting to hear about results from the work that was done by all our practices in 2020, and we are proud to report that all our network practices achieved shared savings in 2020! While we recognize that the COVID-19 pandemic played a role in reducing overall health care utilization, we also know that efforts in our practices helped to keep patients healthy and out of the hospital during a very tough year. Kudos to all—and thank you for all your hard work.

 

Second, we continue to make good progress toward our 2021 goals. We are seeing increasing engagement in the work of value-based care in the practices. Our network management team continues to develop new and better tools to support that work–data integration between both clinical and claims, more educational videos from which to choose, and increasing pharmacy and care management support.

 

And we are growing! We welcomed Rocky Mountain Family Practice in Loveland to the network in July, including six new providers. We are thrilled to have Drs. James Fretwell, Brian Hughes, Paul Cooper, Ammie Christiansen, Eric Mast, and nurse practitioner Diane Smith join our network.

 

Finally, as we all worry about a resurgence of COVID-19 going into this fall, please know that we are here to support you in the hard work of keeping patients healthy. If there is anything you think we can do better as we go forward, please reach out.

 

And thank you for all you are doing for your patients.
