We Accept!
We understand that sometimes it can be difficult, expensive and stressful to leave your home or office to visit a doctor’s office. Why not have the provider come to you? When you need to receive care at your home, or office, our house call nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and care team provide the care and expertise you need in the comfort of your home, or office, and on your demand. We provide medical house calls in Wichita Falls, and surrounding areas, for patients who need treatment for chronic and acute conditions, or to treat urgent (non-emergency) conditions
Delayed follow-up care and deviations from discharge orders increase the likelihood of being readmitted to the hospital. Re-admissions place stress on the health care system, patients and their families. We work with hospitals and patients, prior to discharge to plan transitional medical care, and then provide in-home follow up care immediately following discharge in Wichita Falls and surrounding areas.
Our Transitional Care Management provides a hands-on, house call model of transition care to manage patients through critical recovery gates after hospitalization and/or surgery. Our care teams work with discharging facilities and patients prior to discharge to plan transitional medical care. Upon discharge, we will immediately perform a follow-up visit in the patient’s home to assess the patient’s condition, as well as social and environmental factors that can affect recovery. Insight gained from a house call follow-up visit helps our care team, in coordination with the discharging facility (and primary care physician), determine if discharge care plans need to be modified based on the patient’s individual post-discharge circumstances, or should be implemented as initially designed.
We work with the patient’s primary care physicians to ensure coordination of care and a smooth hand-off at the end of the transition period.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) recognizes care management as one of the critical components of primary care that contributes to better health and care for individuals, as well as reduced spending.
Patients with multiple (two or more) chronic conditions expected to last at least 12 months or until the death of the patient, and that place the patient at significant risk of death, acute exacerbation/decompensation, or functional decline are eligible for the CCM service.
