Helping patients get the care they need and reducing inappropriate use of emergency departments
Collective delivers real-time notifications with insights at the point of care not just to ED physicians, but to the patient’s entire care team.
JACK’S STORY
Unsure how to access primary care, Jack turned to the ED for his daughter’s pediatric asthma attacks
Jack’s daughter had repeated and alarming asthma attacks. Uninsured and working several jobs to make ends meet, he took her to the only place he knew he could get her immediate care at any hour—the hospital emergency department.
Through the Collective platform, care managers were notified of Jack’s daughter’s repeated ED visits. The day after his daughter’s most recent ED visit a nurse reached out to Jack to better understand his situation, help him navigate his options through Medicaid, and work with him to schedule an appointment at a primary care physician with evening hours.
She hasn’t needed an ED visit since.
