CAMP HILL, Pa. & WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Post Acute Medical, one of the nation’s leading providers of long-term acute care services, announced today that it has selected Quantia, Inc.’s (Quantia) Physician Engagement Platform to more effectively engage and align physicians around important clinical and operational initiatives. Quantia is a pioneer in physician engagement, crafting technology and content that is proven to influence behavior change.
Post Acute Medical, a premier LTACH and rehabilitation hospital provider with more than 23 hospitals across six states, will leverage Quantia’s Physician Engagement Platform to improve collaboration and knowledge sharing while also offering an important mechanism for understanding the needs of its physician stakeholders for further alignment of the organization. At the heart of this platform is the QuantiaMD online community, where more than 225,000 physicians nationwide spend an average of 20 minutes per session learning from experts, collaborating with peers, and revealing their attitudes and behaviors on key clinical and administrative topics.
“As our organization grows, we need a solution that will help us to engage our physicians and professional staff around important clinical updates and organizational strategies while also giving us insights into their views on specific topics,” said Dr. Adam Burick, Chief Medical Officer, Post Acute Medical. “Quantia has already figured out how to effectively engage physicians in a way that fosters collaboration and integration. We believe that Quantia will provide tremendous value to our physicians while strengthening our overall organizational performance.”
One of the biggest challenges for hospital executives today is getting valuable information in front of physicians who are inundated with data, time-strapped, and often mobile. Using advanced engagement science, which blends expert-led interactive content, social technologies, and game mechanics, Quantia has created a unique environment that physicians want to explore and interact with. Today, members of QuantiaMD complete more than 10,000 content segments on a daily basis–on the web or via mobile devices–learning from experts and peers. Post Acute Medical will leverage the Quantia platform and its community to share interactive content segments about important health system initiatives and to learn what their physicians and professional providers think, feel, and need to be successful.
“Advances in evidence-based medicine and changing standards for care delivery are happening faster than ever,” said Mike Coyne, CEO of Quantia. “Provider organizations like Post Acute Medical are finding that Quantia’s unique approach to physician engagement helps their own doctors keep abreast of these industry changes and the evidence driving them. Sharing the rationale behind such changes helps organizations gain physician buy-in and supports better decision making across the organization–which of course leads to higher quality, more consistent patient care.”
