Reduce unnecessary Emergency Room visits, hospitalizations, and hospital readmissions.
About Us
About Us
With grant dollars from five funders in 2016 and 2017, our not-for-profit health improvement organization developed and tested home visits by community paramedics caring for patients with CHF, COPD, CKD, Diabetes, Hypertension and other chronic health challenges.
Our Results
As of January 1, 2021, we have cared for over 500 patients with over 2,000 home visits. Our same cause hospital readmission rate remains under 6% in counties with a CMS Medicare rate of 19%. Our Net Promoter Score is 99. Our documented services at just one hospital enabled its CHF clinic to avoid expenses totaling $150,000 in the first 12 months. Where measured by avoided hospital readmissions, all our programs are showing a favorable Return on Investment.
New! Remote Patient Monitoring
New! Remote Patient Monitoring
Know when your patient needs your help. Care-A-Medix now enables your medical office to receive notice when your Medicare patient's BP, blood sugar, oxygen saturation, or weight at home is outside of the normal range. Review the patient's monthly updates and bill Medicare $50.82 for professional services. If you prefer, the remote patient monitoring company will even do the billing for you. Contact Marcus Prevot at 321.285.2290 or [email protected] to enroll your patients.
New! Annual Wellness Visit with Advance Care Planning
New! Annual Wellness Visit with Advance Care Planning
Once enrolled in Medicare for a year, your Part B traditional Medicare patients are eligible for an Annual Wellness Visit. The information gathering along with a face-to-face patient visit using telehealth enables your medical practice to serve your homebound patients or those concerned about COVID if asked to leave home. There is also no co-pay if the Advanced Care Planning is done during the same home visit. Patients find these services convenient as they don't have to leave home. Your medical practice is able to bill for two additional services enhancing your revenues. To learn more or to begin service, contact Marcus Prevot at 321.285.2290 or [email protected]

What Our Patients Say
What Our Patients Say
Takes the time to explain everything to me in a way I can understand it. He's a special person.
Makes sure people have the resources they need after they get out of the hospital.
It's nice to have someone come check on you and talk to you. I am happy and I will miss having James coming to visit me.
This is an excellent program sent by the Lord.

What Our Clients Say
What Our Clients Say
She was most thankful to our Community Paramedic James who had cared for her not just as a patient but as a dear friend.
AdventHealth Altamonte Hospital
(Community paramedic) Marcus was able to facilitate getting that patient seen immediately to address the hematoma, and start the patient on antibiotics to treat the wound.
Orlando Health South Seminole Hospital
Educating the patients with resources available to them and that they are not aware of, giving them that sense of trust that you really care for their well-being and asking tough questions to get to the bottom of other issues is a big win not only for the providers but also for the patients.
Care Manager, office of Dr. John Cappleman
