Clinical Integration & Disease Registry
HPHO Board is pursuing disease management as the cornerstone of the clinical integration initiative, relying on a disease registry tool developed by MedVentive to collect and analyze data and help physicians manage the care they provide more efficiently. The HPA has developed evidence-based guidelines for care delivery, and the HPHO is entering clinical information from private physician practices into the registry to enable us to measure physician practices against those guidelines. The registry helps physicians identify opportunities for improvement, and HPHO staff is committed to providing assistance toward improvement and rewarding high quality medical practices.
The HPHO will follow these guiding principles when implementing the clinical integration program:
- Initiatives must improve quality and/or decrease costs
- Focus on process AND outcomes
- Need strong and fair sanctions and/or rewards policy
- Achieve broadest possible participation of physician members
- Enhance communication between providers, especially PCPs and specialists
