Cerner has partnered with naviHealth to develop an offering around BPCI Advanced.

The companies have worked together for five years with a focus on streamlining electronic workflows for post-acute discharge. naviHealth’s predictive assessment tools will be combined with Cerner’s technology and clinical quality improvement with a focus toward reducing the cost of care. Their new solution is meant for providers tackling BPCI Advanced.

naviHealth is one of the largest conveners, or risk sharing partners, in the BPCI Advanced program, providing services in 22 states. Cerner’s HealtheIntent® big data platform and comprehensive care management technologies complement naviHealth’s predictive assessment tools, the company said.

“Cerner is strongly committed to the ongoing push by CMS to advance the BPCI program,” said Don Trigg, executive vice president, Strategic Growth, Cerner.

“We’ve had tremendous success in the BPCI Advanced program, which is a major first step in the industry’s shift toward value-based care,” said Clay Richards, CEO of naviHealth. “It’s a huge opportunity for providers to achieve better outcomes while reducing costs. Through our relationship with Cerner, there are even greater avenues for success.”
