Soleo Health has established therapeutic care management centers staffed with specially trained, interdisciplinary bleeding disorders teams, focused on managing AscellaHealth’s hemophilia members.
Underscoring the AscellaHealth commitment to serving the hemophilia community, its broad-based Hemophilia Management Program includes an expanded budget that allocates significant resources for pharmacy costs. The program demonstrates the role of AscellaHealth to address the specialized health needs of people with chronic or rare diseases.
As a preferred provider, and through its SoleMetrics® proprietary clinical outcomes program, Soleo Health will support AscellaHealth in its efforts to reduce costs and manage patients. SoleMetrics collects and produces valuable data over time by compiling detailed outcomes of patients under its clinical care and will provide key outcomes data to elevate care for people with hemophilia. SoleMetrics has the distinct ability to gather hemophilia-specific data to demonstrate clinical and economic value to AscellaHealth as well as its providers and members, which influenced the decision to choose Soleo Health as a preferred provider.
Dea Belazi, president and chief executive officer at AscellaHealth, says, “We believe Soleo Health has created a true center of excellence as it relates to appropriately caring for hemophilia patients — an important constituency within our member base. Soleo Health was selected as a preferred provider partner to assist in the clinical management of our hemophilia patients, based on its unparalleled outcomes data-driven reporting capabilities and clinical expertise. This emphasis complements AscellaHealth’s Hemophilia Management Program and approach and will contribute to our ability to deliver meaningful solutions while enhancing care.”
Belazi explains that the AscellaHealth hemophilia program is based upon an all-encompassing data analytics interface technology solution, which captures, integrates and provides unlimited amounts of prescription data and healthcare outcome analytics in a real-time platform.
“SoleMetrics will strengthen the power of our program as we work to improve patient compliance, control utilization management and realize incremental savings,” says Belazi.
