BCBS members in parts of Tennessee will soon be able to receive in-home or virtual palliative care from Amedisys clinicians at no additional cost, according to a Feb. 15 news release.
“Palliative care at home brings coordinated and specialized care into the homes of our members and avoids unnecessary hospitalization,” Angeline Brunetto, MD, vice president and chief medical officer of BCBS’ senior care division, said. “Increasingly, this is what patients want and we are proud to offer these services to our middle Tennessee members.”
At the Becker's 5th Annual Fall Payer Issues Roundtable, taking place November 17–19 in Chicago, payer executives and healthcare leaders will come together to discuss value-based care, regulatory changes, cost management strategies and innovations shaping the future of payer-provider collaboration.
