CommonSpirit Health at Home has introduced a truly innovative after-hours strategy. To reduce clinician turnover and mitigate burnout, the organization partnered with IntellaTriage to completely replace its existing after-hours process and eliminate after-hours home health visits.
Review the case study to gain profound insights into a strategic after-hours transformation that addresses care team well-being, patient experience and population health, operational efficiency, and cost-effectiveness.
"In June of 2022, we handed all our after-hours calls for home health and hospice to IntellaTriage. Since then, an IntellaTriage nurse has answered the phone in less than 60 seconds on average and resolved an average of 80% of calls after hours without local administrator involvement. Our nurses and case managers are thrilled to rest at night, which has helped with retention. Plus, it has saved us money by reducing emergency room visits, which are now less than 1%. The implementation process was easy and well-executed, and we are seeing beautiful outcomes."
