ConcertoHealth® Chosen by Seattle Primary Care Innovation Elective for Citywide Training Program

IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- ConcertoHealth, the leading provider of specialized primary care and supporting clinical services for vulnerable, frail and elderly patients, was selected for the Seattle Primary Care Innovation Elective, a four-week course that trains medical residents in primary care innovation and leadership. The ConcertoHealth Care Center in Renton, Wash., was chosen as a site for the program based on its innovative, collaborative, team-based approach to patient care.

ConcertoHealth Care Centers in Washington offer services that go beyond the scope of a traditional doctor's office to include 24/7 care coordination and support, and access to physicians, nurses, field-based clinicians, care coordinators, social workers, and pharmacists. ConcertoHealth integrates clinical care with social services and proprietary health data analytics to offer high-touch, individualized primary and preventative care for patients regardless of the care setting, be it at home, in a hospital, Care Center, or post-acute setting. ConcertoHealth also deploys its technology and on-the-ground care teams to support health plans' primary care provider networks.

"We are proud to be selected for the Seattle Primary Care Innovation Elective, which offers a unique experience to residents training at some of the best primary care programs in the country," said Chris Dodd, M.D., M.S., ConcertoHealth regional medical director for Washington state. "We look forward to hosting physicians-in-training at our Renton Care Center, and sharing the proven insights, strategies and services that we deploy at ConcertoHealth Care Centers each day."

The first of two medical resident groups recently toured the ConcertoHealth Renton Care Center. They learned about the ConcertoHealth primary care model and observed the interdisciplinary care team and patient visit preparation meetings. The residents also received an overview of the ConcertoHealth patient engagement team and discussed opportunities to improve quality of care through a team-based, collaborative approach to effectively manage care and treatment for the most vulnerable and costly patients.
