MANASQUAN, NJ, USA — As uncompensated healthcare costs for chronic illness continue to rise, some organizations, like Baptist Health of Montogmery, Ala., are scrapping old plans and subscribing to the medical home approach to reduce uncompensated care costs for the chronically ill population. The health system describes how it achieved a 2:1 ROI in "Reducing Uncompensated Care Costs for the Chronically Ill Through a Medical Home Approach: A Health System Case Study," a July 16, 2009 webinar. The 60-minute webinar, scheduled for 1:30 p.m. Eastern, is sponsored by HIN.

“Baptist Health's patient-centered approach to chronic care has certainly paid off for them, netting the health system a 2:1 return on investment. Other organizations faced with increasing uncompensated care costs can certainly learn from Baptist's approach of caring for the chronically ill with a patient-centered medical home model."
