Partnerships Model
Partnerships between different healthcare organizations can improve care coordination, care transitions, and patient outcomes. Programs can arrange partnerships to achieve care coordination goals by sharing resources and data, making referrals for their patients, enhancing communication, and exchanging best practices. Using a systems approach for these activities may increase quality of care delivered to patients.
