It’s no secret that healthcare is changing. Physicians are facing pressure to provide care at a reduced cost without sacrificing quality and satisfaction. At the same time, patients are taking charge of their care as consumerism continues to rise. Contessa enables leading healthcare organizations to address these challenges by advancing care in their markets. Hospitals are not a one-size-fits-all solution for patients. Contessa knows there is a better way to deliver high-quality, safe and affordable care for patients recovering from non-life-threatening conditions. Contessa Home Recovery Care does just that. Patients are treated for their inpatient-eligible condition in the comfort of home without being admitted into the hospital.

Medically Home a private firm based in Boston launched a digital technology-enabled system of care at home where physician and nurse practitioners use 2-way, biometrically-enhanced, two-way, audio-video systems to monitor and interact with patients from a command center. Medically Home also provides all bedside monitoring equipment and clinicians to make home visits, as well as delivery of supplies such as oxygen and diagnostics to the home. Medically Home care is designed as an alternative to both hospital and post hospital skilled nursing facility care. Under this model a much broader range of patients are eligible for acute home care. Medically Home pre-registers patients who have had high rates of inpatient care, allowing them to choose home care for future acute care needs. Medically Home launched its first program with Atrius Health System in Boston in the Spring of 2017 and has recently implemented a service offering post- him surgical care.
