U.S. Medicaid
HP Enterprise Services manages 21 State Medicaid programs. In fact, we’re the nation’s leading provider of Medicaid process management services, handling about 1 billion claims and administering about $100 billion in benefits each year.
In just one example, we helped simplify and streamline Kansas’ administrative processes, enabling real-time exchange of information with healthcare providers.
Administrative costs dropped to less than 2% of benefit dollars spent. In addition to Medicaid, we manage State programs for Immunization, Fraud and Abuse, and Eligibility, among others.
HP is the largest IT provider to healthcare payers. When it comes to the efficient administration of healthcare, nobody has more expertise.
Arkansas BreastCare
Using IT to drive efficient, affordable coverage is an important goal in itself. But we can also extend care by using the data captured in the payer system. For example, Arkansas wanted to extend its BreastCare program more widely to underserved populations.
HP Enterprise Services set up an automated enrollment process that worked in conjunction with the State’s Medicaid program, which we also manage and run.
With this in place, Arkansas was able to bring early detection to more women and raise awareness of breast cancer across the state. They increased program enrollment four-fold, helping 17,000 uninsured and under-insured women gain access to early detection, resources and treatment.
Electronic Health Records
When patients see multiple providers in different settings, none of whom has access to complete information, it becomes easier for things to go wrong. At HP, we partner with the leading electronic health records companies like Cerner, McKesson, Siemens, GE Healthcare, and others.
With McKesson, we recently announced a deal to offer physicians McKesson’s EHR/practice management systems bundled with HP office hardware preconfigured for easy installation, a sort of “doctor’s office in a box.” We’re helping eliminate manual processes, paperwork, filing and dramatically improving accuracy, while meeting regulatory compliance for data integrity, privacy and security. Doctors can make more informed, timely decisions and ultimately improve outcomes.
St. Olav’s Hospital
Technology can dramatically improve the quality of care by ensuring that the right thing is done at the right time, in the right way, for the right person. Perhaps nowhere has this ideal become closer to reality than at St. Olav’s Hospital in Norway. The University hospital completely integrates patient treatment, research and teaching and serves 50,000 patients annually.
Through thin clients, patients have a world of information and entertainment at their bedside. Doctors and nurses with mobile devices have access to patient information wherever they are, and capture and share vital patient data, such as X-rays and lab results, in a timely way. But perhaps most importantly, all of these systems work together seamlessly through a next-generation industry standard IT infrastructure.
With technology at the heart of its operations, St. Olav’s is at the forefront of 21st century care.
Partners HealthCare
Technology is at the center of affordable, quality care. But it is also the engine that is expanding the boundaries of medical knowledge and treatment. With the power unleashed from scalable industry standard hardware, integrating genetic and pharmaceutical research into everyday clinical care is becoming a reality.
Partners HealthCare Center for Personalized Genetic Medicine is taking steps toward that future today. Working with HP, the Center implemented a multi-cluster compute and storage solution to capture, process, and share the massive amounts of data produced in genetic sequencing for multiple individuals. Treatments that not only take into account your medical history, but your genetic makeup — in a timely and cost-effective way — are just around the corner.
