Performing Provider System

Integrated Delivery System (Project 2.a.i)

 

The PPS will collaborate with the New York State Department of Health Medicaid Program to develop a sustainable DSRIP Integrated Delivery System, which will include:

  • Integration of New York State Health Homes to provide community-based care coordination
  • Warm handoffs between care settings
  • Connections across local health information exchanges and use of other Health Information Technology tools to facilitate sharing of information
  • Use of a culturally competent workforce
  • Collaboration with safety net community-based organizations
  • Adoption of a PPS-wide Patient Centered Medical Home model to address the health needs of our patient population
  • Identification of a path to financial sustainability using Value-Based Payment Method
