ACOs – What we do

General Medicine tailors a wide variety of medical services to match the specific needs of each ACO, hospital and integrated health system we partner with. Our on-site clinician services improve patient care and reduce hospital readmission rates, unnecessary emergency room visits and overall health care spending.

Through regular, on-site, office hours our specialized clinicians are able to provide a patient-centered, integrated care approach that ensures the highest quality of patient care in the industry.

Because our post-hospitalists work exclusively on-site, and specialize in the care of patients in long-term care settings, there’s no more waiting for a physician to return a call at the end of a busy day of practice work or to pay a monthly site visit to address patients’ health concerns. There’s even less reason for facility staff to call an ambulance out of concern for the patient while they’re waiting.
