Revealed By Geneia: The Secrets To Preventing Readmissions With Predictive Analytics
BOSTON, Oct. 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Geneia announced today that its Chief Technology Officer Avi Mukherjee is speaking at the World Congress Health Care Predictive Analytics Summit in Boston. Mukherjee's presentation, Prevent Unnecessary Hospitalizations and Reduce Readmissions with Predictive Analytics, is October 21st at 11:30 am.
"Earlier this month, Medicare announced that three-quarters of eligible hospitals – that is, 2,610 hospitals in all 50 states and the District of Columbia – are being penalized for preventable readmissions. We know that many of these hospital readmissions are not only unnecessary but also potentially harmful to the patient and the hospital's bottom line," said Avi Mukherjee, Chief Technology Officer of Geneia.
During his presentation, Mukherjee will discuss how innovative health care organizations are cost-effectively using predictive analytics to avoid hospitalizations. He also will share strategies for delaying or preventing hospital readmissions to promote quality and cost savings.
"At Geneia, we've created a cost-effective, intuitive, patient-centric, and physician-friendly solution that combines the best of wearable devices with predictive analytics to identify and engage the patients at most risk for hospital readmission. Our solution is unique in that it has a higher accuracy rate and the data and alerts seamlessly integrate into the existing physician work flow, both of which increase physician adoption."
