Descripción:
ASES intends to provide Vital patients suffering from medical under-service or difficulties in accessing medical care with a chronic disease care management solution wherein they will have access to a full complement of remote devices to measure their vital signs and other clinical data, which will be monitored by a full team of physicians and nurses. This team will be prepared to advise the patients about any significant change in their health condition before it becomes an emergent life-threatening event and guide the patient to seek medical or hospital care on a timely basis. This will help solve the problem of under-service and provide for better, holistic, 24/7 care for the patient population enjoying remote monitoring services.
Accordingly, ASES intends to engage in a pilot program for a maximum of 2,000 beneficiaries of the Vital Program with Diabetes Mellitus Types I & II who have conditions associated with decompensation resulting from lack of follow-up, treatment, and medication noncompliance during the COVID-19 pandemic period. This pilot program is aimed at increasing access to healthcare services specifically to elderly and pediatric beneficiaries with diabetic conditions who live mainly in rural and under-served communities. The program must integrate physicians with relevant specialties through GHP MCO's provider networks. The main goals of the program are:
Improvement of overall control of diabetic conditions;Improvement in follow-up and treatment and medication adherence;Reduction in ER visits;Reduction in hospitalizations;Reduction in readmissions; andReduction in worsening of related conditions (chronic kidney disease, vascular disease, heart disease, and others.
