Intergritas can be your medical services partner when there are nurse practitioners (NP) or physician assistants (PA) providing services in your facility. Most NPs working in the long term care industry
do not possess the training necessary to understand the complex geriatric population in the long term care industry. We have developed an extensive geriatric care orientation program and have the ability
to guide your medical practitioner team in treating this delicate population.
Consulting with LTC Medical Providers in:
- Business Development
- Orientation to LTCs
- Monthly Staff Development Conference Calls
The value of having a nurse practitioner and/or physician assistants providing care in a skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) can not be denied. Yet many facility owners and operators do not know exactly
why these providers are so valuable. Limited research exists on the economic impact of practitioners providing services in SNFs. Although they have been providing care in SNFs for over thirty years, the
question of how best to utilize them remains largely unanswered.
The objective of our White Paper was to determine how two different medical provider models affected certain economic measures that are of significant financial importance to a SNF. The outcomes were
astonishing with our Assistant Medical Director (AMD) model resulting in a financial improvement of over $300 thousand per year per facility.
Long term care is a tough but essential business to health care:
- Most small NF chains do not have Chief Medical Officers (CMOs) to influence medical management
- The OIG’s enhanced Quality-of-life focus on inappropriate care and insufficient care in LTC facilities.
- Fewer physicians are attending to NF residents due to reimbursement and liability concerns.
We have the experience, the knowledge and the fortitude to bring your long term care medical services to the next level…..
