Healthy patients & healthy businesses.

A partnership for strong post-acute care.

Management Expertise and Resources

The Business
of Healthcare

In addition to our team of professionals providing care in the home, A Path of Care network agencies have a team of professionals handling the business side of healthcare.

A Path of Care Management Services provides help with insurance, accurate coding and billing, Human Resources support, and more. This means the clinical team can focus on what they do best… helping you heal at home.

Benefits to our Patients

Access to Network resources means benefits for patients.

Advanced Training

Many services that once required a hospital stay can now be offered in the home. Our clinical team stays up to date on medical developments, new equipment and other tools to provide advanced care in the comfort of home.

Educational Materials

Patients receive award-winning teaching materials on managing chronic diseases like diabetes, heart failure or COPD. We provide tools to help reduce the risk of falling, and to help speed recovery after surgery.

Controlled Costs

By sharing back-office management services with multiple locations, it helps lower the cost of office services and shift dollars to clinical care. Each agency can tap into expert resources and avoid duplicating costs and services.

Locally Owned and Operated

A Path of Care Management Services is located right here in Oklahoma. The leadership team has been serving Oklahomans for many years. We understand the special challenges faced across our state, especially in rural areas.

Benefits to Health Systems

How our team supports Hospitals:

A Path of Care Management Services also offers consulting and management to health systems. Hospitals can focus on the inpatient and outpatient care, and we can help them develop a strong post-acute network.

Experience, Experience, Experience

Our management team has specialized in in-home care services since 1996. We understand the structure, regulations, coding and billing, and planning needed to successfully operate post-acute services.

Strategic Planning

We can assess your current program and identify opportunities to strengthen post-acute services. This could include adjusting service areas, monitoring productivity, improving billing practices or providing tools to increase awareness of your services.

Technology

Patients and health systems benefit from technology, such as Remote Patient Monitoring to improve outcomes and supplement visit frequency. Point-of-Care software can improve documentation and communication.
