Case Study: Holston Medical Group achieves $7.2 million in value-based payments with Altera Digital Health's Allscripts solutions

Connecting physician groups for better patient care at Holston Medical Group

Holston Medical Group (HMG), an independent multi-specialty physician group, faced the challenge of managing value-based care initiatives and coordinating data across disparate EHR systems from different physician groups within their newly formed ACO. To overcome this, they partnered with Altera Digital Health and leveraged its dbMotion health information exchange platform to create a unified community record.

The solution implemented by Altera Digital Health, through its dbMotion platform, enabled the secure sharing of patient data across the ACO's connected providers. This allowed HMG to normalize data, stratify patient populations, and improve care coordination. The results were significant; HMG earned $7.2 million in value-based payments in 2015 alone, and their ACO generated $40 million in shared savings. Participants connected to the health information exchange also saw average increases of 20% in risk scores, 5% in quality scores, and 12% in net revenue.
