CareScreen® platform to help Connecticut's only statewide independent physician association to improve care, reduce costs
The CareScreen health data-sharing software platform will help the 4,000 physicians of the Connecticut State Medical Society-Independent Practice Association (CSMS-IPA) in its drive to improve care and reduce costs under a five-year agreement with Quality Health Ideas.
Connecticut's only statewide independent physician association, or IPA, selected the Suffield-based company's technology, which has helped plans earn an average of 4.5 stars out of five for quality as determined by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. In addition, the CareScreen platform has helped to reduce total medical expenses for Medicare Advantage plans between 20 to 25 percent, or about twice the average of competing products.
