Vree Health Signs Choice Agreement to Provide Care Transition Management Services to Amerinet

Vree Health, a company that combines technology with direct personal patient engagement to influence positive behavioral change and help improve outcomes, has a new, choice agreement to provide care transition management services to Amerinet, a leading healthcare solutions organization.

Under the agreement, Amerinet members, which include acute and non-acute care hospitals, surgery centers, long-term care facilities, clinics and doctors’ offices, will receive access to TransitionAdvantage™ from Vree Health. The solution is a scalable, post-discharge care coordination service that integrates technology and personal interaction to help improve performance and quality scores related to 30-day readmission rates, enhance patient satisfaction and reduce potential Medicare reimbursement penalties. Amerinet selected Vree Health as an approved vendor within its Population Health Management initiative.

“Vree Health and Amerinet share a common strategy focused on population health management, which includes patient flow management, patient engagement, care coordination, and population health analytics,” said Kyle Dolbow, president, Vree Health. “The goal is to help healthcare organizations improve connections between providers and patients, and ultimately deliver better outcomes and enhanced patient care.”

TransitionAdvantage addresses four primary causes of preventable hospital readmissions – incomplete handoff and visibility, lack of follow-up, medication management, and lack of care coordination. Vree Health is also offering a limited number of pilot opportunities to Amerinet members, thus adding significant benefits to the contract, which runs through May 31, 2017.
