WaymarkOct 18 2024 Waymark, a public benefit company dedicated to improving access and quality of care in Medicaid , today published a peer-reviewed study in the New England Journal of Medicine Catalyst evaluating the impact of its early intervention model in its first year of service. The study found that Waymark's community-based early interventions significantly reduced hospital and emergency department visits and improved both patient goal completion and care quality in 2023.
Medicaid is the nation's primary health insurance program for low-income and disabled populations-;providing access to essential health and social care for over 80 million Americans. Despite the program's critical role as a health care safety net, Medicaid programs are often associated with fragmented care delivery, bureaucratic barriers to care, poor health outcomes, and high avoidable costs.
Waymark's multidisciplinary care teams include community health workers , clinical pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, licensed behavioral health therapists, and care coordinators. These care teams use advanced data science technologies to identify and outreach patients at risk of avoidable ED visits and hospitalizations, and provide them with targeted health and social care-related services.
