By creating and coordinating partnerships with quality-driven care providers, accountable care organizations (ACOs) such as Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital in Michigan take responsibility of the complexities of medical care so injured workers can focus on getting better.
Paradigm Outcomes, working specifically with workers’ compensation cases of a catastrophic and complex nature, is proud to create partnerships with care providers such as Mary Free Bed and provide comprehensive care for those suffering from catastrophic injuries.
These types of cases, involving brain injury, spinal cord injury, permanent and severe disability, burns and other injuries caused on the job, require specific and organized levels of care in order to ensure injured workers and their families receive the care and support they need.
With a focus on providing “high-value rehabilitation and post-acute care” in West, Mid- and Northern Michigan, Mary Free Bed offers inpatient, outpatient and care services centered around catastrophic and complex injuries.
Traditional care models focus on payments made to a care provider based on volume of services, not on the quality of their care. The decisions are largely handled by claim adjusters who are more concerned about the bottom line.
Through this partnership, Paradigm Outcomes and Mary Free Bed work together to ensure not only the highest quality of care but also comprehensive care management that helps injured workers and their families get back on track.
