Avicenna Medical Systems, a medical software developer, is proud to announce its Cloud-based Care Transition Solution, aimed at the small to medium-sized Transitional Care Management Services organizations. The Cloud- based Care Transition Solution is particularly attractive to TCMS organizations because of its low entry point and very affordable volume-based pricing.

According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), “care transitions occur when a patient moves from one health care provider or setting to another. Nearly one in five Medicare patients discharged from a hospital—approximately 2.6 million seniors—are readmitted within 30 days, at a cost of over $26 billion every year. Successful care transitions require timely, accurate, and sufficient communication of clinical information between providers, so that downstream services can immediately assume responsibility for patient care.

Successful care transitions can improve outcomes and patient satisfaction, decrease costs, and ensure that patients understand how, when, and where to seek help.

Avicenna’s Cloud-based Care Transition Solution provides the tools needed to manage the transition, from enrolling the patient, documenting medications, tracking phone calls and other interventions, to generating reports needed by hospitals and other facilities to verify readmission reductions. This includes all of the support documentation needed for CPT1 codes 99495 and 99496.

Erdwing Coronado, CEO and founder of Avicenna Medical Systems, said: “We are responding to a new segment of the healthcare market created by the Affordable Care Act. Our systems are designed to improve clinical management protocols by increasing efficiency, productivity, while reducing unnecessary costs as well as the potential for human error.”
