Why DocSite?

DocSite Supports the Medical Home

The Medical Home-A Patient-Centered, Physician-guided Model of Health Care

The Advanced Medical Home care model supports putting patient health management where it belongs, with the primary care physician-not the patient's health plan. Primary Care Physicians do more than merely treat today's symptoms or serve as a gateway to specialist care; they coordinate care for their patients across the entire care spectrum. At DocSite, we believe Primary Care Physicians should be empowered and compensated to truly create a medical home for each patient.

To implement a Medical Home, physicians must:

• Be compensated for the time and effort required to manage their patients health, including time spent responding to urgent and non-urgent health care concerns
• Adopt a strategic approach to guiding patient care both for the individual patient and entire groups of patients
• Truly manage the patient's health in a holistic manner; not just deal with problems presented today but proactively address the patient's entire well-being
• Use evidence-based guidelines to coordinate and track patient needs
• Provide a team approach to care delivered within their clinical practice
• Employ patient and population management tools that clinically support their practice without disrupting efficiency

DocSite can help you implement a Medical Home

DocSite Registry helps physicians care, track, manage and report on the preventive, acute and chronic health needs for each patient they treat, as well as those of their entire patient panel by providing comprehensive evidence-based patient and population management tools. The system makes it easier to coordinate team oriented care needs, essential to effective Medical Home practices.

Health Care One Patient at a Time

Each patient has unique health concerns and physicians need tools to manage their patients' individual needs. DocSite integrates most major chronic, acute and preventative care guidelines into the clinical workflow and provides patient-specific handouts to track self-management goals with lists actionable items for their next visit.

Coordinating Team Care in the Medical Home

The Medical Home concept requires physicians to coordinate patient care across the spectrum of healthcare services. DocSite helps you track who's providing care to your patients, what is being done (or not) and the medications they are currently prescribed easing care transition challenges. DocSite lets you adopt "team care" at a realistic pace both for you, your patients and your community.

Effective Physician-Patient Communication

Patients often have questions after their office visit. DocSite has partnered with the American College of Physicians to provide the ACP's patient-friendly PIER™ clinical content to physicians at the point-of-care. PIER offers physicians and patients authoritative medical information about over 400 conditions and is written in most major languages. PIER is free to ACP members or available at a nominal cost to other physicians.

Proactive Population Management

Included outreach and performance summary reports provide physicians insight into their patient population quickly and easily. Instantly identify patients who have fallen behind in their treatment plan and reach out to schedule appoints or needed lab work for them. Now you can see how your patients' outcomes compare to nationally accepted treatment guidelines and focus your attention on those who need you most.
