About this episode
Scott discusses the importance of facilitated visits in managing high-needs Medicare populations to improve patient outcomes and reduce hospitalizations.
A high-needs Medicare population is here—and the margin for missed visits, missed documentation, and missed opportunities is gone. Scott makes the case that facilitated visits + consistent billing + proactive frequency is one of the most practical ways to keep patients home, reduce hospitalizations, and prove savings at scale.
