From H&HN:<\/p>\n

Meeting in Chicago under the aegis of the American College of Emergency Physicians a little over four years ago, a consortium of 10 EMS-affiliated physicians and health care strategists from around the country, including Beck, proposed a new model for delivery of appropriate, around-the-clock, comprehensive, planned or unplanned care outside the hospital, using interprofessional medical teams.<\/p>\n

They called it mobile integrated health care practice, or MIHP. The P has since been dropped as confusing. But as MIH, it\u2019s an idea that is already recording encouraging results.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt makes a big difference for the patients to have an advanced practice provider go to their home after they\u2019ve been discharged and look around,\u201d he says. \u201cIn almost all cases, something\u2019s not right. Patients are given a number to call if they have problems, and we have a multi-triage system to decide whether they can wait or need an ambulance immediately. Their discharge summary lists the physician who\u2019s responsible and, if appropriate, that\u2019s where we take them.”<\/p>\n

Says Beck: \u201cSome hospitals are trying to manage the present. They\u2019re caught up in working their way through the challenges of the near term. Others have a strategy that\u2019s more outward looking. They\u2019re pursuing value-focused care. For them, mobile integrated health is coming into focus pretty quickly. It\u2019s a new iteration of a familiar set of players … and a pretty exciting new set of menu choices for hospitals and health systems that are thinking holistically.\u201d<\/p>
