“As partners for nearly five years, COMS and AHT have committed to help
long-term post-acute care (LTPAC) providers deliver better care and
achieve improved outcomes – and this is just another example of
following through on our commitment,” said
AHT recognizes the importance of managing care post-discharge from the
hospital and the need for skilled nursing to manage chronic diseases.
“The AHT and COMS partnership is not only bringing disease management to
the AHT system in a fully integrated way, but it is also giving
providers an evidence-based, disease-specific process to manage
increasingly complex care and truly affect outcomes,” said
AHT understands organizations have different needs, therefore, we now offer the interoperable COMS solution in three affordable packages:
- Admission Package: Offers COMS assessments during the first 72 hours of admission process, which helps support strong baselines and the new Requirements of Participation. This package is subscription free for the first 12 months.
- Nursing Package: Offers COMS deep clinical data, assessments, and insights that are related to the individual resident. This rich clinical data enables customers to provide evidence-based, disease-specific care with a person-centered approach.
- Comprehensive Package: Includes all the Nursing package features, but also closes the loop on clinical care with critical care review, reporting and analytics to drill down and understand care team competency and trends in care.
