Collaborating with Providers to Improve Care Practices

Provider clinical practice drives both quality and cost. OptumHealth offers providers the information and support they need to improve their practices under the difficult circumstances they face. Easy-to-access technology combines with clinician-to-clinician outreach in programs that encompass:

• Alerts about member gaps in care, with specific recommendations for intervention
• Combined analytic and provider education programs that identify and respond to issues with psychotropic medication prescriptions and usage
• Print and online clinical guidance and best practices based on evidence-based medicine
• Specialized peer-to-peer consultation and support, including psychiatric consultation to primary-care physicians
