Working Together to Improve Quality & Control Costs
HNS physicians have committed to work together on the quality and cost-effectiveness of health care provided to patients in our service area, and to improve the patient experience.
Through its Credentialing, Quality, & Utilization Management, Cultural Competency and other programs, HNS seeks to improve the quality, effectiveness, and the efficiency of the health care delivery system in our service area, and to help control the costs of that care. These efforts create efficiencies for contracted health care plans, their members, as well as for its contracted health care professionals.
HNS creates efficiencies in our service area by:
-
Establishing mechanisms to monitor and control utilization of health care services provided by its contracted health care professionals designed to control costs and ensure quality of care; and
-
Improving access to care in our service area; and
-
Selectively choosing, for initial and continued participation, physicians who are committed to the consistent delivery of safe, quality, and cost-effective health care; and
-
Developing and maintaining policies and standards which promote quality, cost-efficiency, and improve the overall patient experience; and
-
Requiring the ongoing investment by health care professionals, both monetary and human, in its infrastructure, in order to achieve its efficiency objectives.
