2 Your partners in creating an enriched patient experience through superior care coordination Adventus Health simplifies care logistics for our customers while increasing patient satisfaction and decreasing avoidable readmission s by providing high touch, high-tech and cost effective services.

3 HEALTHCARE SOLUTIONS MOBILE HEALTH POST VISIT CALLS REMOTE PATIENT MONITORING CARE TRANSITIONS

4 CARE TRANSITIONS Adventus provides comprehensive in-hospital planning and home follow-up for chronically ill high-risk older adults in an effort to improve care transitions, increase quality of care and reduce readmissions. Patients who received this program were significantly less likely to be readmitted to the hospital. Patients are also more likely to achieve self-identified personal goals around symptom management and functional recovery. Transition coaches using our proven Coleman based model have teamed up with healthcare providers and have managed to lower 30-day readmission rate among Medicare Patients. Adventus Health Care Logistics Center The purpose of the evidence-based model is not to provide ongoing care to patients but to optimize patient outcomes throughout and following an acute episode of illness. The major goal of this model is to minimize transitions by helping the patient and family caregivers develop the knowledge, skills and resources essential to prevent future decline and re-hospitalization. 1 IN 5Discharged Patients are readmitted within 30 days $26 76% Billion Spent on Readmissions Per Year, May be preventable Nearly one in five Medicare patients discharged from a hospital approximately 2.6 million seniors is readmitted within 30 days, at a cost of over $26 billion every year. The Medicare Payment Advisory Commission estimates that up to 76% of these readmissions may be preventable and the average cost to Medicare per preventable readmission is $7,200. The core benefit of these programs for hospitals is that they are relatively low cost to implement and if successful, they have the potential to produce a good return on investment (ROI) in terms of clinical and financial results

5 POST VISIT CALLS Adventus Health Care Logistics Center conducts post-visit calls which provide an in depth opportunity to extend the care you offer patients outside the hospital walls. Engaged and informed patients are much more likely to understand and follow their discharge instructions correctly, making it less likely they will need to be readmitted. Not only do these calls improve clinical outcomes and patient perception of care, they also help organizations maximize reimbursement. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act requires hospitals to reduce preventable 30-day readmissions or face financial penalties. Benefits of Post-Visit Calls Reduce preventable readmissions Improve clinical outcomes Reinforce compliance with discharge instructions and understanding of medications Decrease patient anxiety Improve overall perception of quality of care as measured by HCAHPS Allow for a continuum of care outside hospital walls RANK IN THE 90 TH PERCENTILE IN PATIENT SATISFACTION Studies have showed improvements in the industry-standard Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) scores, a leading indicator of patient satisfaction, when patients received follow-up calls. Hospitals saw an increase in scores of 12% for their Overall Rating, a 26% increase in the Would You Recommend response and overall improvement in 14 our of 17 categories. Data consistently shows that when patients receive a post-discharge call, they rank their care in the 90th percentile on average, in patient satisfaction. When they do not receive a call, they rank their care in the 30th percentile, on average.

6 REMOTE PATIENT MONITORING Remote patient monitoring is revolutionizing the healthcare industry. Adventus Healthcare Solutions is helping hospitals, medical centers and healthcare systems address and overcome some of their most serious challenges. These include escalating costs, an overflow of patients, hospital readmissions, increased records management requirements and many others. According to the Geisinger plan, telemonitoring reduces hospital readmissions by 44%. As more and more healthcare providers turn to technology to improve their care and service, Adventus Health is emerging as the most powerful, the most viable and the most cost-efficient solution. Patient at Home Takes vital signs and customized surveys to check their health. Secure Data Infrastructure With specific algorithm s, our infrastructure sends your patients health to one of our call centers Customer Care Team Advances in telemedicine help care teams monitor the various vitals of a patient, which plays a vital role in reducing unnecessary readmission Call Center Specialized clinical software streamlines workflow, improves efficiencies, and allows for earlier patient intervention.

With remote patient monitoring, Physicians and healthcare professionals will have the luxury to gain easy access to real time data on their patients current status from settings beyond their offices.

7 MOBILE HEALTH Adventus Mobile Health is a comprehensive care management program which combines clinical care management and transitional care services. Adventus Health Care Logistics will coordinate our care services including multi level clinicians on demand.

Adventus Mobile Health fills the gaps in healthcare services by identifying the particular needs of a community and developing ways to meet those needs. Benefits of Mobile Health and Wellness Proactive home visits Improve field screening capabilities Decrease hospital readmissions Decrease emergency department visit for non acute events Decrease unnecessary costs Economic efficiencies in the overall healthcare system Patient safety would be assured by better regulatory oversight Several areas across the country are turning to mobile health programs in an effort to increase healthcare services and decrease healthcare costs.
