Patient benefits

Our St. Joseph Health Partners providers work together to coordinate your care needs, including preventive, outpatient, inpatient, acute hospital care, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, home health services, and palliative care. We are your advocate and adviser throughout the healthcare process. It's a system that has proven to help smooth the experience for our patients and control costs, all while dramatically improving quality of care.

Care Coordination provides a seamless experience

By providing a seamless experience through care coordination, we're able to consistently provide quality health care for our patients. Our care coordination model helps you navigate the healthcare system to more easily get the care you need. The guidance of a St. Joseph Health Partners Care Coordinator ensures a smooth transition in care when you leave the hospital. In addition, chronic disease management is provided through weekly calls, home visits, and other activities.

Care Coordinators operate as an extension of a physician's practice, providing physicians with timely reports and updates on their patients. Together, St. Joseph Health Partners' care team members and physicians form a clinical team that extends care beyond the physician's office, ensuring that patients are supported in the home and community environment.

Staying ahead through leading edge technology

We make significant ongoing investments in technology to help us connect our providers, manage the health of the people we serve, and identify possible opportunities in care coordination.

By using leading edge technology, we give our physicians access to information about their patients from all participating facilities. Information can be easily shared throughout our network, so your care can move along smoothly and efficiently.
