Elation Health

Elation Health, the popular tech platform for primary healthcare, has announced that it is partnering up with medical group Galileo to implement its software across the latter’s broad primary care practice network. 

Galileo is a medical group that provides specialized, long-term care to a wide and diverse patient population. The firm collaborates with Fortune 500 companies and a variety of health plans to provide healthcare to people. Medicaid and Medicare patients are also included in its list of care recipients. The company is known for putting social and personal care at its forefront, delivering its services in patients’ homes.

Julia McDowell, the firm’s manager of care delivery, stated: “We have a multimodal, multidisciplinary model of care. We are delivering care in the home through mobile units that are these outfitted Airstream trailers and vans that we bring to community sites. We’re delivering care by text and phone and video. With Elation’s technology, it was really the connectivity and the ability to seamlessly transfer data and information so that at any point of care, all of our clinicians and nonclinical care team members have access to that patient-centered view of what a patient needs at a given point in time. That helps our care teams develop a highly personalized care plan for patients.” McDowell noted that for Galileo to deliver outstanding personalized medical care, it needs to be able to gather structured data from an EHR and fuse it seamlessly with its own data.

Elation Health, which was established ten years ago, is concentrated on relatively more recent care settings, such as hybrid teams and at-home models. Currently, the EHR company serves over 23,000 clinicians all over the U.S. Galileo, meanwhile, incorporates a data-driven care approach by classifying its patients using sophisticated analytics; this helps the company gain a deeper understanding of the kind of care their patients require.

One of the strongest points of this partnership is how the Elation Health API can benefit Galileo clinicians; they can automate and personalize their alerts through the API to make the most of their value-based contracts.

Elation Health experts predict that the company’s hands-on approach will enable its API to improve cross-collaboration between different teams to such an extent that they’ll receive over a million daily API calls.

Kyna Fong, CEO of Elation Health, said that Galileo and Elation are an excellent fit. With Elation Health in charge of providing the infrastructure and API that allow Galileo to innovate, the possibilities are endless, she said. This way, both companies will bring the best out of each other, and the real winners will be the patients, who will gain the best possible care.

Elation Health’s technology is said to have contributed significantly to the success of its clients in value-based care models, with partners reporting healthcare cost savings of over 25% and a threefold decrease in referrals to more expensive specialists. Elation’s expertise and technology are being utilized by a number of developing primary care innovators to advance their businesses, including Firefly Health and Crossover Health. As such, Elation is fully confident that the collaboration with Galileo will support the latter in achieving the best possible performance in its contracts.
