With 145 hospitals and more than 2,200 care sites in 24 states, CommonSpirit Health serves patients with a wide variety of needs, from big cities to remote rural communities.
Now, CommonSpirit says a common platform is going to accelerate the move to value-based care.
CommonSpirit recently announced the launch of its Population Health Services Organization, a new platform aimed at sharing data and best practices across the nonprofit Catholic health system.
Thomas McGinn, CommonSpirit’s executive vice president of physician enterprise, spoke about the new platform with Chief Healthcare Executive®. In a recent interview, McGinn expressed high hopes for the organization’s potential to improve care and reduce some headaches for clinicians across the system.
CommonSpirit has been working in value-based care for some time, and some markets are more advanced in the transition than others, he says.
“We’ve been doing this for a while,” McGinn says. “What we’re doing is really reorganizing ourselves in a way to enhance our efficiencies.”
