JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (August 5, 2020) – Forcura, a leading healthcare technology company that empowers better patient care, announces that Seasons Hospice and Palliative Care (Seasons), one of the nation’s largest providers of hospice services, has chosen the full suite of Forcura’s products to streamline workflows, coordinate care team communications, and benefit from Forcura’s new Analytics platform. Together, these tools translate to faster care transitions for patients and increased revenues and optimized cash flows for the hospice agency.
The Forcura platform allows post-acute care providers to manage the flow of patient information and documentation for all lines of business through seamless integration with electronic health records (EHRs). Forcura is committed to transitioning the post-acute industry from a document-intensive to a data-driven segment of healthcare. Forcura is an integrated partner of Season’s EHR, Homecare Homebase (HCHB.)
Founded in 1997, Seasons Hospice & Palliative Care has a national office in Rosemont, Illinois, and operates 29 Medicare-certified sites across 19 states, with an additional 18 inpatient centers. In 2019, they provided an incredible 1.85 million days of care to over 30,900 patients and families. They are known for their adoption and utilization of best-in-class technology, being early adopters of the electronic health record, and offer a diverse range of industry-leading clinical programs in the hospice and palliative care fields.
“Seasons looks forward to the efficiencies and tools that Forcura will bring to our organization. Ultimately this suite of tools will help us provide high-quality coordinated care and streamline key back-office functions,” says David Donenberg, Chief Financial Officer for Seasons.
Seasons will deploy Forcura to centralize and digitize their referrals and orders management workflows, as well as use the Forcura mobile app to coordinate care team communications in the field. Forcura’s Analytics platform will also enable managers and decision makers within Seasons to easily track referrals and orders volumes, gain insights on workflow bottlenecks, and monitor staff performance across their enterprise.
“Knowing the value Seasons places on technology, we are honored that this leading-edge hospice and palliative care provider has selected Forcura to help them provide compassionate, patient-centered care,” says Craig Mandeville, founder and CEO of Forcura. “We strive to offer the most innovative solution so that the post-acute industry can be data-driven, which makes Seasons an excellent partner. We look forward to empowering them to deliver even better patient care.”
