TOTAL COST OF CARE

Higher-cost care does not necessarily mean higher-quality care. Many factors can drive cost, such as serving higher-risk or sicker patients or providing care in a more expensive area.

However, some approaches for providing higher-quality care can also help lower healthcare costs. Medical groups may be better positioned to keep costs low by practicing these approaches, which include but not are limited to the following:

  • Providing high-quality preventive care like cancer screenings to diagnose problems before patients get sicker.
  • Managing patients' chronic illnesses such as diabetes to help them stay healthier and avoid complications.
  • Providing only tests or treatments that patients need.
  • Preventing medical errors, such as giving the wrong diagnosis or the wrong medicine, which have to be corrected with additional resources.
  • Following up with patients and/or their caregivers after a hospital stay, helping to prevent unwanted return visits to the hospital.
