August 10, 2023 – Guideway Care, an innovative healthcare company dedicated to advancing health equity, optimizing patient outcomes and lowering total costs in value-based care and Vizient jointly announced a strategic partnership intended to enhance Vizient’s provider-led surgical care High Value Network (HVN).
Currently comprised of 14 top-tier health systems across 17 markets in the U.S., Vizient’s HVN is focused on connecting multi-market, self-insured employers with high-quality health system partners. Guideway’s care guidance program will support this network with a structured, non-clinical patient navigation solution focused on pre-and post-discharge patient engagement, coordination and management.
The addition of Guideway’s care guidance program to the Vizient platform, which offers transparent, pre-negotiated discounted rates with top-tier medical providers and vendors, also improves a healthcare organization’s operational and financial performance. Care Guides relieve nurses and staff of non-clinical responsibilities, allowing clinicians to focus on personalized, high-quality patient care and freeing up valuable resources that can be applied to other areas of care delivery.
