A highly successful disease management and chronic care solution begins with a detailed, disease-specific understanding of each member. Precisely who from a broader member patient population needs to be engaged and why? Is their disease newly diagnosed, unstable, or complicated by comorbidities? Are they showing signs of increasing risks for complications or admissions? Are they seemingly unable to access the help that they may need to avoid acute deterioration in their medical condition?

These are the important questions and MedAssurant has developed and appliestruly industry leading medical data analysis processes to determine the answers. We examine member encounter patterns, medication data, claims entries, laboratory orders and results, procedural data, durable medical equipment purchases, Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) member data, and a host of other data sets.

The CCS Advantage™ ISAP™ module can be applied "standalone" or as part of an end-to-end CCS Advantage™ disease management solution implementation. As a standalone module, ISAP™ enables clients to determine the disease status of their patient populations; prioritize the budgeting or assignment of resources to existing disease management initiatives; and avoid the overlapping of programs that may lead to confusion for a patient and waste for a health plan if unchecked. Simply put, ISAP™ enables clients to implement a superior patient and disease identification, stratification, assessment, and prioritization process to improve resource allocations and efficiency within existing disease management initiatives or as part of an end-to-end solution.
