Innovative Video Education Enhances Patient Care in Hospitals
Revolutionizing Patient Engagement with Mytonomy
Mytonomy Cloud for Healthcare Digitally Prepares Patients Pre/Post Procedure Across Major Surgical Journeys via Epic MyChart, Helping Providers Meet CMS Goals.
As healthcare systems evolve with changing reimbursement models, Mytonomy’s video-based education platform stands out as a critical ally for hospitals adapting to the CMS Transforming Episode Accountability Model (TEAM). This innovative approach aims to link surgical reimbursement not only to the procedures performed but to the overall outcomes and quality of care provided. With Mytonomy, hospitals can effectively lighten the administrative load while allowing patients to become active participants in their healthcare journey.
A Shift Towards Outcome-Based Payments
The TEAM model represents a significant evolution in the way CMS reimburses healthcare services. Traditional fee-for-service models paid for discrete procedures, but now hospitals must demonstrate substantial improvements in patient outcomes while managing costs throughout the entire surgical experience—from pre-operative assessments to post-operative recovery.
Demonstrating Effective Education and Engagement
Recent implementation at a major academic medical center has shown the effectiveness of launching patient education at the point of surgery scheduling rather than waiting until discharge. This proactive approach led to impressive results; over 4,000 patients engaged with the educational content, averaging 24 minutes of viewing time per session. Feedback from another prestigious institution revealed that 77% of surveyed patients felt that Mytonomy’s educational resources empowered them to adhere to their care instructions post-discharge.
Seamless Integration with Epic EHR
Mytonomy's seamless integration into Epic MyChart sets it apart from other educational solutions. Unlike platforms that require additional steps for providers, Mytonomy facilitates automatic assignment of preoperative educational videos, all without disrupting the established EHR workflow. This effortless integration supports hospitals in scaling patient education initiatives without interrupting patient care processes. Data collected illustrates a notable increase in video viewership, particularly among Medicare-eligible patients across various health facilities.
Benefits of Video Education
With Mytonomy's video resources, hospitals are witnessing a transformation in several key areas:
- Enhanced Quality Metrics: Standardized educational content leads to improved comprehension of surgical procedures among patients and streamlined communication within care teams.
- Cost Optimization: By minimizing delays in surgical schedules and enhancing adherence to discharge plans, hospitals can reduce the incidence of avoidable readmissions.
Focus on Critical Surgical Procedures
The TEAM model encompasses five primary surgical procedures: joint replacements, hip fracture repairs, spinal fusions, coronary artery bypass surgeries, and significant bowel surgeries. Mytonomy provides tailored educational materials for each, along with vital preoperative topics such as anesthesia management and pain control protocols. This rich content is designed to empower patients, helping them understand their role in the surgical process and effectively navigate the healthcare system.
Strategic Importance in Healthcare
Anjali Kataria, the CEO of Mytonomy, emphasizes that the TEAM model has underscored the necessity for effective patient education as a hallmark of contemporary healthcare strategies. Hospitals now face the dual challenge of engaging with patients during each step of their care pathways while managing staff shortages. Mytonomy meets this demand by providing comprehensive, automated educational content, thus relieving healthcare providers and aligning with CMS objectives.
