Collective is a real-time collaboration network that enables providers and payers across the spectrum of care to understand where their shared patients are, understand which are facing imminent but avoidable risk, and get up toe speed and engaged quickly to intervene and mitigate that risk. Collective provides a suite of applications designed to meet the needs of individual stakeholders across care settings--inpatient, emergency, post-acute skilled nursing and home health, mental and behavioral health, accountable care organizations (ACOs), commercial, medicare, and medicaid health plans, and ambulatory and specialty outpatient--as they seek to close communication gaps that stem from ineffective transitions of care that undermine coordination of care. Proven to streamline care transitions, improve coordination, and reduce unnecessary length of stay and admissions, Collective helps improve patient outcomes and lower costs by streamlining care hand-offs, highlighting essential patient information that may otherwise slip through the cracks, and proactively identifying risk that may otherwise go unchecked until too late. Collective integrates alongside EHRs, population health tools, and health information exchanges to empower decision making by highlighting essential insights and actions to take on patients a provider has already seen, is currently seeing, or should see. Collective is in use by over a thousand hospitals, every national health plan in the country in additional to many regional health plans and ACOs, and tens of thousands of other providers across the care continuum.
