Every day, health care organizations rely on precise information to guide patient care. Information from EHRs (Electronic Health Records) is crucial, but doesn’t necessarily include everything about a patient’s care or history. The question becomes, how can health systems best use the data they already have to provide high-quality care?

The John’s Hopkins ACG System solves for this common problem. Today, we are excited to announce the release of an outstanding new e-guide that shows how the ACG System can use standard EHR data to identify appropriate levels of care, predict staffing needs and much more.

In this e-guide, you’ll learn how the ACG System can help you:

• Balance staff productivity with the needs of the population
• Prioritize patients who need the highest level of care
• Save costs without sacrificing quality
• Use readily available patient data to create meaningful and beneficial care plans

In addition, this e-guide explains how the ACG System helps providers and health care systems increase performance-based payments under MIPS (Merit-Based Incentive Payment System). This is just one way the ACG System benefits both the provider and the patient – better care results in fewer admissions, lower costs and increased incentives.

EHR data has practical insights and greater significance when analyzed through the ACG System. You can quickly identify groups with the highest need and your patients can receive reap the benefits of better care. Most importantly, the ACG System can provide a complete risk stratification assessment at your fingertips, without needing to wait for claims data.
