Abstract: The disclosed invention relates to a method of delivering individually customized, evidence-based intervention plans that focus on the specific needs of each participant across an entire population. Through the identification of each program participant's modifiable risk-factors and cost drivers, indicated by deviations from the most up-to-date best practices and nationally-based guidelines of care, the described system maximizes outcomes for each member in the most cost-effective manner possible, leading to increased return on investment (ROI), improved outcomes and greater participant satisfaction.
Abstract: A method and system for a health network comprising a facility, operated by a party other than the patient or health care provider, for collecting and routing information pertaining to the health care of a patient to the patient and the health care provider. The health network utilizes two-way communication between the patient and the facility, and the health care provider and the facility. In one embodiment, the facility receives treatment instructions from the health care provider that are specifically developed for each patient. Algorithms are developed based on such instructions. The algorithms are then programmed into an appropriately configured message device in the possession of the patient. The patient is prompted by the message device to measure and enter relevant physiological data, e.g., peak flow, etc., as dictated by the treatment instructions.
