Policy and politics aside , the care will continue to be better .

The ethical necessity for health providers and in-part , patients themselves , to be more responsible for healthy outcomes existed long before public policy terms like “ accountable care ” were coined .
Premier Medical Associates , along with many leading provider organizations across America , daily pursues improvements in patient care . Providing value driven care , the concept of better quality and lower costs , is not propelled by political policy . It is simply what has always been right for the patient and will continue into 2017 .
Premier continuously evaluates and initiates programs that noticeably improve both care and costs . Their results in improving patient health have been so significant , Premier was named AMGA ’ s 2016 Acclaim winner creating a national demand for Premier ’ s “ roadmap ” for care delivery . Far outpacing the national averages for medical metrics in hypertension control , diabetic management ,
cancer prevention , health screenings , well visits and adult immunizations , Premier has a report card that would make any patient feel better .
According to Mark DeRubeis , CEO , “ Too often patients evaluate quality in healthcare as they might rate a hospitality service . Was the office space clean and updated ? Was the staff friendly and responsive ? Can I get an appointment quickly ? Good service without good care in not a health solution for a lifetime .”
Finding the best care , the right care , hinges on seeking out progressive organizations . It will be these providers who will have high-functioning clinical teams achieving the best results in overall patient health , prevention and disease management .
