INSURANCE SEE SCHEDULE O I.GENERAL INFORMATION GHP IS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT OPERATES A HEALTH MAINTENANCE ORGANIZATION (HMO) LOCATED IN DANVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA. GHP PROVIDES PRE-PAID MANAGED HEALTH CARE TO ITS MEMBERS AND IS A COST-EFFECTIVE ALTERNATIVE TO TRADITIONAL INDEMNITY HEALTH INSURANCE. FOUNDED IN 1972, INCORPORATED IN 1984 AND INITIALLY LICENSED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF INSURANCE IN 1985, GHP CURRENTLY OPERATES IN 43 CONTIGUOUS COUNTIES OF PREDOMINATELY RURAL CENTRAL AND NORTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA. IN ADDITION, GHP CONTRACTS WITH OVER 46,000 PROVIDERS AND 99 HOSPITALS. GHP HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF THE LARGEST RURAL HEALTH PLANS IN THE UNITED STATES AND HAS MAINTAINED THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF ACCREDITATION FROM THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE FOR QUALITY ASSURANCE (NCQA) SINCE 1993. GHP WAS ALSO RANKED IN THE TOP 10 PRIVATE AND MEDICARE PLANS IN PENNSYLVANIA. THE PLAN WAS RANKED 8 AMONG PRIVATE HEALTH PLANS AND 9 AMONG MEDICARE PLANS IN THE NATION BY THE 2011-2012 NATIONAL COMMITTEE FOR QUALITY ASSURANCE HEALTH INSURANCE PLAN RANKINGS. NEW FACILITIES AND MORE SERVICES BECAUSE GHP IS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION, REVENUES IN EXCESS OF THE COST OF THE HEALTH CARE PROVIDED TO MEMBERS ARE USED TO IMPROVE FACILITIES AND SERVICES, INCREASE BENEFITS AND PROVIDE AFFORDABLE RATES. GHP TYPICALLY MAKES ANNUAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE FOUNDATION TO ENHANCE TEACHING, EDUCATION, AND RESEARCH PROJECTS THAT BENEFIT ALL PENNSYLVANIANS. THESE CONTRIBUTIONS ARE USED TO FUND THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW FACILITIES AND TO ADD MORE SERVICES TO OUR EXISTING HOSPITALS AND PHYSICIAN CLINICS. THIS DIRECTLY SUPPORTS THE CHARITABLE MISSION OF THE FOUNDATION AND ITS CHARITABLE AFFILIATES BY MAKING IT POSSIBLE TO ENHANCE HEALTH CARE PROGRAMS AND SERVICES THROUGHOUT THE REGION WHILE IMPROVING THE AVAILABILITY OF CARE FOR PATIENTS IN OUR SERVICE AREA. PROVIDING AFFORDABLE, HIGH QUALITY, COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CARE AND BENEFITS INCREASES THE ACCESS OF CARE TO THOSE WHO MIGHT NOT OTHERWISE BE ABLE TO AFFORD HEALTH CARE AND CONTRIBUTES TO THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN ALL THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. GHP PROVIDES COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CARE SERVICES ON A PREPAID BASIS THROUGH AN INTEGRATED HEALTH CARE DELIVERY SYSTEM, WHICH PROVIDES HEALTH CARE TO THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE. AS PART OF AN INTEGRATED HEALTH SYSTEM, GHP IS ABLE TO CHANNEL EXPERIENCE, KNOWLEDGE AND FUNDS TO PURSUE UNIQUE PROJECTS WITH THE GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM. NO OTHER ORGANIZATION IN THIS REGION HAS BOTH PROVIDER AND PAYER JOINED TOGETHER TO CREATE SYNERGIES THAT IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITIES THAT WE SERVE. GEISINGER PROVENHEALTH NAVIGATOR R AND THE NORTHEAST COLLABORATIVE HEALTH NAVIGATOR IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN PATIENTS, PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS AND GHP TO IMPROVE MEMBERS' HEALTH. ALSO KNOWN AS A "MEDICAL HOME," GHP PROVIDES A CASE MANAGER WHO WORKS CLOSELY WITH THE MEMBER'S HEALTH-CARE PROVIDERS, THE MEMBER AND THEIR FAMILY BY COORDINATING CARE WITH HOSPITAL, SPECIALISTS, PHARMACISTS AND SKILLED NURSING FACILITIES. THE MODEL GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM EMPLOYS BLENDS ASPECTS OF A CHRONIC CARE MODEL, A MEDICAL HOME MODEL AND A PATIENT-CENTERED PRIMARY CARE MODEL. ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONAL COMPONENTS ARE INCLUDED, CREATING A NEW HEALTH CARE DELIVERY VEHICLE: HEALTH NAVIGATOR. ACTING AS THE FIRST-LINE CAREGIVER AND GUIDE, GEISINGER HEALTH PLAN NURSE CASE MANAGERS HELP PATIENTS NAVIGATE THE HEALTH-CARE SYSTEM. THE KEY STRATEGY OF HEALTH NAVIGATOR IS TO OFFER PATIENTS ACCESS TO A HEALTH NAVIGATOR CASE MANAGER 24 HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK. THE PRIMARY CARE PRACTICE TEAM AND GHP, WORKING WITH THE PATIENT AT THE CENTER OF THE SYSTEM, ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY TO OPTIMIZE HEALTH STATUS FOR EVERY INDIVIDUAL AND TO MEET PRE-ESTABLISHED QUALITY, EFFICIENCY, AND PATIENT SATISFACTION OUTCOMES TARGETS FOR THE PRACTICE POPULATION. GHP IS ALSO PARTICIPATING IN THE NORTHEAST COLLABORATIVE OF THE PENNSYLVANIA CHRONIC CARE INITIATIVE. THE CHRONIC CARE INITIATIVE, CREATED BY FORMER PENNSYLVANIA GOVERNOR EDWARD RENDELL, IS A STRATEGIC PLAN THAT CALLS FOR IMPLEMENTING THE CHRONIC CARE MODEL IN ALL PRIMARY CARE PRACTICES ACROSS THE COMMONWEALTH. USING GHP'S PROVENHEALTH NAVIGATOR PROGRAM AS A MODEL, THE NORTHEAST COLLABORATIVE PROMOTES STRONG COLLABORATION BY PROVIDERS, PAYERS, AND PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATIONS TO BENEFIT ALL PATIENTS IN NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA. THE INITIATIVE INCORPORATES GHP'S PRIMARY CARE MEDICAL HOME STANDARDS AND OUR USE OF CASE MANAGERS AS A VALIDATION TOOL THAT PRACTICES ARE TRANSFORMING THEIR CARE DELIVERY TO EFFECTIVELY MANAGE CHRONICALLY ILL PATIENTS. THE NORTHEAST COLLABORATIVE IS ONE OF SEVEN REGIONAL LEARNING COLLABORATIVES UNDERWAY ACROSS THE COMMONWEALTH. IN FISCAL YEAR 2011, GHP'S UNREIMBURSED COST OF PROVIDING HEALTH NAVIGATOR'S SERVICES TO OUR MEMBERS WAS 8.4 MILLION. ADDITIONALLY, 4.7 MILLION WAS USED TO SUPPORT NON-MEMBERS' PARTICIPATION IN THE HEALTHNAVIGATOR PROGRAM. IN ADDITION, GHP PAID 350,000 TOWARD THE NORTHEAST COLLABORATIVE INITIATIVE. PROVENCARE R- CHRONIC DISEASE GGEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM IDENTIFIED THE MOST COMMON CHRONIC DISEASES (DIABETES, CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE, CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE) AND ADULT PREVENTION TREATMENTS (IMMUNIZATIONS, COLONOSCOPIES, ETC). USING EVIDENCE-BASED BEST PRACTICES, CARE WAS "BUNDLED" INTO THE MOST EFFECTIVE TREATMENT. CARE IS MEASURED BY MEETING 100% OF THE BUNDLE REQUIREMENTS, AS TRACKED OVER TIME. THERE HAS BEEN SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT IN MEETING MORE OF THE BUNDLE REQUIREMENTS FOR ITS BUNDLES OF CARE. PROVENCARE R-ACUTE EPISODIC CARE (THE "WARRANTY") BEGINNING WITH CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFTS (CABG), THE PROCESS INCLUDES INDENTIFYING HIGH-VOLUME DRGS, DETERMINING BEST PRACTICE TECHNIQUES, AND DELIVERING EVIDENCE-BASED CARE. WORKING WITH GHP, THE GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM CLINICAL ENTERPRISE ESTABLISHED A GLOBAL FEE THAT INCLUDES PRE-OPERATIVE CARE, HOSPITALIZATION, PHYSICIAN FEES, REHABILITATION, AND ANY CARE (ADMISSIONS DUE TO COMPLICATIONS) RELATED TO THE SURGERY WITHIN 90 DAYS. THIS ADDITIONAL CARE IS NOT CHARGED (IF THEY ARE SEEN AT A GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM FACILITY). THIS "WARRANTED" CARE HAS BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL AND WRITTEN UP IN THE NEW YORK TIMES AND PUBLISHED IN THE ANNALS OF SURGERY. IN ADDITION TO CABG, GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM NOW HAS (OR IS IN THE PLANNING PROCESS) FOR ANGIOPLASTY, ANGIOPLASTY WITH AN ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION (HEART ATTACK), HIP REPLACEMENT, CATARACTS, ERYTHROPOIETIN (EPO) - A DRUG USED FOR KIDNEY PATIENTS, PERINATAL CARE, AND BARIATRIC SURGERY. TRANSITIONS OF CARE BEGUN IN JANUARY 2008, THIS PROGRAM IS A JOINT QUALITY/EFFICIENCY INITIATIVE THAT COMPLEMENTS HEALTH NAVIGATOR. IT SMOOTHES OUT THE TRANSITION OF CARE AS A PATIENT MOVES FROM INPATIENT THROUGH OUTPATIENT SETTINGS. TO DATE, IT HAS BEEN FOCUSED ON NARROW POPULATIONS SUCH AS MEMBERS WHO HAVE HEART FAILURE. IT HAS SUCCESSFULLY REDUCED READMISSIONS; PROGRAM EXPANSION IS PLANNED. ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD (EHR) GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM IS ON THE FOREFRONT IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND USE OF THE EHR. GHP HELPED SUPPORT THE 100 MILLION INVESTED IN THE EHR OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS. THE POSSIBILITIES FOR IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF CARE WITH THE EHR ARE ENDLESS. CURRENTLY, GHP USES THE EHR TO COMMUNICATE WITH MEMBERS WHO ARE INVOLVED IN MEDICAL OR DISEASE MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS AND THEIR PHYSICIANS. GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM ALSO ALLOWS COMMUNITY HOSPITALS AND PHYSICIANS TO ACCESS PATIENT INFORMATION. DISEASE AND CASE MANAGEMENT SERVICES TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF MEMBERS, GHP PROVIDES DISEASE AND CASE MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS AND SERVICES TO COORDINATE CARE FOR THOSE WITH CHRONIC CONDITIONS SUCH AS DIABETES, CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE, OSTEOPOROSIS AND ASTHMA. THESE PROGRAMS HAVE ATTAINED NATIONAL RECOGNITION BY HEALTH MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATIONS AND INDUSTRY GROUPS. THE PROGRAMS IN CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE, HYPERTENSION, DIABETES, CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE, OSTEOPOROSIS, CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE, CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE AND ASTHMA HAVE RECEIVED "FULL" ACCREDITATION FROM NCQA. THESE IN-DEPTH PROGRAMS WERE THE RESULT OF A COLLABORATION OF EXPERTISE BETWEEN GHP AND PROVIDERS IN THE GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM. THE SUCCESS OF THIS COLLABORATION IS ONE EXAMPLE OF HOW THIS UNIQUE RELATIONSHIP CAN BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY. SILVER SNEAKERS AND FOREVERFIT MEMBERS ENROLLED IN GHP'S MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLANS ARE OFFERED FITNESS PROGRAMS AT NO ADDITIONAL COST, DEPENDING ON THE PLAN SELECTED. THE SILVER SNEAKERS PROGRAM PROVIDES MEMBERS WITH A FREE FITNESS CENTER MEMBERSHIP, CUSTOMIZED FITNESS CLASSES DESIGNED FOR OLDER ADULTS, HEALTH EDUCATION SEMINARS AND SOCIAL EVENTS. FOREVERFIT ALSO PROVIDES MEMBERS WITH A FITNESS CENTER MEMBERSHIP AT NO ADDITIONAL COST AT A CENTER PARTICIPATING IN FOREVERFIT'S NETWORK. FOREVERFIT MEMBERS CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ANY EXERCISE OR RECREATIONAL PROGRAM THAT IS INCLUDED IN THE MEMBERSHIP. THEY ALSO RECEIVE SIGNIFICANT SAVINGS OFF THE NEWSSTAND RATE OF POPULAR HEALTH-RELATED MAGAZINES, AND DISCOUNTS ON VITAMINS AND SUPPLEMENTS.

ORGANIZATION'S MISSION FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION GEISINGER HEALTH PLAN BENEFITS THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES BY PROVIDING HIGHER QUALITY FOR EACH PERSON'S HEALTH CARE DOLLAR THROUGH INNOVATIVE MODELS OF CARE AND COVERAGE THAT SUPPORT THE GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM'S CHARITABLE MISSION.
FIRST ACHIEVEMENT DESCRIPTION FORM 990, PAGE 2, PART III, LINE 4A I.GENERAL INFORMATION GHP IS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT OPERATES A HEALTH MAINTENANCE ORGANIZATION (HMO) LOCATED IN DANVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA. GHP PROVIDES PRE-PAID MANAGED HEALTH CARE TO ITS MEMBERS AND IS A COST-EFFECTIVE ALTERNATIVE TO TRADITIONAL INDEMNITY HEALTH INSURANCE. FOUNDED IN 1972, INCORPORATED IN 1984 AND INITIALLY LICENSED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF INSURANCE IN 1985, GHP CURRENTLY OPERATES IN 43 CONTIGUOUS COUNTIES OF PREDOMINATELY RURAL CENTRAL AND NORTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA. IN ADDITION, GHP CONTRACTS WITH OVER 46,000 PROVIDERS AND 99 HOSPITALS. GHP HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF THE LARGEST RURAL HEALTH PLANS IN THE UNITED STATES AND HAS MAINTAINED THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF ACCREDITATION FROM THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE FOR QUALITY ASSURANCE (NCQA) SINCE 1993. GHP WAS ALSO RANKED IN THE TOP 10 PRIVATE AND MEDICARE PLANS IN PENNSYLVANIA. THE PLAN WAS RANKED 8 AMONG PRIVATE HEALTH PLANS AND 9 AMONG MEDICARE PLANS IN THE NATION BY THE 2011-2012 NATIONAL COMMITTEE FOR QUALITY ASSURANCE HEALTH INSURANCE PLAN RANKINGS. NEW FACILITIES AND MORE SERVICES BECAUSE GHP IS A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION, REVENUES IN EXCESS OF THE COST OF THE HEALTH CARE PROVIDED TO MEMBERS ARE USED TO IMPROVE FACILITIES AND SERVICES, INCREASE BENEFITS AND PROVIDE AFFORDABLE RATES. GHP TYPICALLY MAKES ANNUAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE FOUNDATION TO ENHANCE TEACHING, EDUCATION, AND RESEARCH PROJECTS THAT BENEFIT ALL PENNSYLVANIANS. THESE CONTRIBUTIONS ARE USED TO FUND THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW FACILITIES AND TO ADD MORE SERVICES TO OUR EXISTING HOSPITALS AND PHYSICIAN CLINICS. THIS DIRECTLY SUPPORTS THE CHARITABLE MISSION OF THE FOUNDATION AND ITS CHARITABLE AFFILIATES BY MAKING IT POSSIBLE TO ENHANCE HEALTH CARE PROGRAMS AND SERVICES THROUGHOUT THE REGION WHILE IMPROVING THE AVAILABILITY OF CARE FOR PATIENTS IN OUR SERVICE AREA. PROVIDING AFFORDABLE, HIGH QUALITY, COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CARE AND BENEFITS INCREASES THE ACCESS OF CARE TO THOSE WHO MIGHT NOT OTHERWISE BE ABLE TO AFFORD HEALTH CARE AND CONTRIBUTES TO THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN ALL THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. GHP PROVIDES COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CARE SERVICES ON A PREPAID BASIS THROUGH AN INTEGRATED HEALTH CARE DELIVERY SYSTEM, WHICH PROVIDES HEALTH CARE TO THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE. AS PART OF AN INTEGRATED HEALTH SYSTEM, GHP IS ABLE TO CHANNEL EXPERIENCE, KNOWLEDGE AND FUNDS TO PURSUE UNIQUE PROJECTS WITH THE GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM. NO OTHER ORGANIZATION IN THIS REGION HAS BOTH PROVIDER AND PAYER JOINED TOGETHER TO CREATE SYNERGIES THAT IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITIES THAT WE SERVE. GEISINGER PROVENHEALTH NAVIGATOR R AND THE NORTHEAST COLLABORATIVE HEALTH NAVIGATOR IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN PATIENTS, PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS AND GHP TO IMPROVE MEMBERS' HEALTH. ALSO KNOWN AS A "MEDICAL HOME," GHP PROVIDES A CASE MANAGER WHO WORKS CLOSELY WITH THE MEMBER'S HEALTH-CARE PROVIDERS, THE MEMBER AND THEIR FAMILY BY COORDINATING CARE WITH HOSPITAL, SPECIALISTS, PHARMACISTS AND SKILLED NURSING FACILITIES. THE MODEL GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM EMPLOYS BLENDS ASPECTS OF A CHRONIC CARE MODEL, A MEDICAL HOME MODEL AND A PATIENT-CENTERED PRIMARY CARE MODEL. ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONAL COMPONENTS ARE INCLUDED, CREATING A NEW HEALTH CARE DELIVERY VEHICLE: HEALTH NAVIGATOR. ACTING AS THE FIRST-LINE CAREGIVER AND GUIDE, GEISINGER HEALTH PLAN NURSE CASE MANAGERS HELP PATIENTS NAVIGATE THE HEALTH-CARE SYSTEM. THE KEY STRATEGY OF HEALTH NAVIGATOR IS TO OFFER PATIENTS ACCESS TO A HEALTH NAVIGATOR CASE MANAGER 24 HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK. THE PRIMARY CARE PRACTICE TEAM AND GHP, WORKING WITH THE PATIENT AT THE CENTER OF THE SYSTEM, ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY TO OPTIMIZE HEALTH STATUS FOR EVERY INDIVIDUAL AND TO MEET PRE-ESTABLISHED QUALITY, EFFICIENCY, AND PATIENT SATISFACTION OUTCOMES TARGETS FOR THE PRACTICE POPULATION. GHP IS ALSO PARTICIPATING IN THE NORTHEAST COLLABORATIVE OF THE PENNSYLVANIA CHRONIC CARE INITIATIVE. THE CHRONIC CARE INITIATIVE, CREATED BY FORMER PENNSYLVANIA GOVERNOR EDWARD RENDELL, IS A STRATEGIC PLAN THAT CALLS FOR IMPLEMENTING THE CHRONIC CARE MODEL IN ALL PRIMARY CARE PRACTICES ACROSS THE COMMONWEALTH. USING GHP'S PROVENHEALTH NAVIGATOR PROGRAM AS A MODEL, THE NORTHEAST COLLABORATIVE PROMOTES STRONG COLLABORATION BY PROVIDERS, PAYERS, AND PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATIONS TO BENEFIT ALL PATIENTS IN NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA. THE INITIATIVE INCORPORATES GHP'S PRIMARY CARE MEDICAL HOME STANDARDS AND OUR USE OF CASE MANAGERS AS A VALIDATION TOOL THAT PRACTICES ARE TRANSFORMING THEIR CARE DELIVERY TO EFFECTIVELY MANAGE CHRONICALLY ILL PATIENTS. THE NORTHEAST COLLABORATIVE IS ONE OF SEVEN REGIONAL LEARNING COLLABORATIVES UNDERWAY ACROSS THE COMMONWEALTH. IN FISCAL YEAR 2011, GHP'S UNREIMBURSED COST OF PROVIDING HEALTH NAVIGATOR'S SERVICES TO OUR MEMBERS WAS 8.4 MILLION. ADDITIONALLY, 4.7 MILLION WAS USED TO SUPPORT NON-MEMBERS' PARTICIPATION IN THE HEALTHNAVIGATOR PROGRAM. IN ADDITION, GHP PAID 350,000 TOWARD THE NORTHEAST COLLABORATIVE INITIATIVE. PROVENCARE R- CHRONIC DISEASE GGEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM IDENTIFIED THE MOST COMMON CHRONIC DISEASES (DIABETES, CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE, CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE) AND ADULT PREVENTION TREATMENTS (IMMUNIZATIONS, COLONOSCOPIES, ETC). USING EVIDENCE-BASED BEST PRACTICES, CARE WAS "BUNDLED" INTO THE MOST EFFECTIVE TREATMENT. CARE IS MEASURED BY MEETING 100% OF THE BUNDLE REQUIREMENTS, AS TRACKED OVER TIME. THERE HAS BEEN SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT IN MEETING MORE OF THE BUNDLE REQUIREMENTS FOR ITS BUNDLES OF CARE. PROVENCARE R-ACUTE EPISODIC CARE (THE "WARRANTY") BEGINNING WITH CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFTS (CABG), THE PROCESS INCLUDES INDENTIFYING HIGH-VOLUME DRGS, DETERMINING BEST PRACTICE TECHNIQUES, AND DELIVERING EVIDENCE-BASED CARE. WORKING WITH GHP, THE GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM CLINICAL ENTERPRISE ESTABLISHED A GLOBAL FEE THAT INCLUDES PRE-OPERATIVE CARE, HOSPITALIZATION, PHYSICIAN FEES, REHABILITATION, AND ANY CARE (ADMISSIONS DUE TO COMPLICATIONS) RELATED TO THE SURGERY WITHIN 90 DAYS. THIS ADDITIONAL CARE IS NOT CHARGED (IF THEY ARE SEEN AT A GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM FACILITY). THIS "WARRANTED" CARE HAS BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL AND WRITTEN UP IN THE NEW YORK TIMES AND PUBLISHED IN THE ANNALS OF SURGERY. IN ADDITION TO CABG, GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM NOW HAS (OR IS IN THE PLANNING PROCESS) FOR ANGIOPLASTY, ANGIOPLASTY WITH AN ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION (HEART ATTACK), HIP REPLACEMENT, CATARACTS, ERYTHROPOIETIN (EPO) - A DRUG USED FOR KIDNEY PATIENTS, PERINATAL CARE, AND BARIATRIC SURGERY. TRANSITIONS OF CARE BEGUN IN JANUARY 2008, THIS PROGRAM IS A JOINT QUALITY/EFFICIENCY INITIATIVE THAT COMPLEMENTS HEALTH NAVIGATOR. IT SMOOTHES OUT THE TRANSITION OF CARE AS A PATIENT MOVES FROM INPATIENT THROUGH OUTPATIENT SETTINGS. TO DATE, IT HAS BEEN FOCUSED ON NARROW POPULATIONS SUCH AS MEMBERS WHO HAVE HEART FAILURE. IT HAS SUCCESSFULLY REDUCED READMISSIONS; PROGRAM EXPANSION IS PLANNED. ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD (EHR) GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM IS ON THE FOREFRONT IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND USE OF THE EHR. GHP HELPED SUPPORT THE 100 MILLION INVESTED IN THE EHR OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS. THE POSSIBILITIES FOR IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF CARE WITH THE EHR ARE ENDLESS. CURRENTLY, GHP USES THE EHR TO COMMUNICATE WITH MEMBERS WHO ARE INVOLVED IN MEDICAL OR DISEASE MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS AND THEIR PHYSICIANS. GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM ALSO ALLOWS COMMUNITY HOSPITALS AND PHYSICIANS TO ACCESS PATIENT INFORMATION. DISEASE AND CASE MANAGEMENT SERVICES TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF MEMBERS, GHP PROVIDES DISEASE AND CASE MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS AND SERVICES TO COORDINATE CARE FOR THOSE WITH CHRONIC CONDITIONS SUCH AS DIABETES, CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE, OSTEOPOROSIS AND ASTHMA. THESE PROGRAMS HAVE ATTAINED NATIONAL RECOGNITION BY HEALTH MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATIONS AND INDUSTRY GROUPS. THE PROGRAMS IN CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE, HYPERTENSION, DIABETES, CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE, OSTEOPOROSIS, CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE, CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE AND ASTHMA HAVE RECEIVED "FULL" ACCREDITATION FROM NCQA. THESE IN-DEPTH PROGRAMS WERE THE RESULT OF A COLLABORATION OF EXPERTISE BETWEEN GHP AND PROVIDERS IN THE GEISINGER HEALTH SYSTEM. THE SUCCESS OF THIS COLLABORATION IS ONE EXAMPLE OF HOW THIS UNIQUE RELATIONSHIP CAN BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY. SILVER SNEAKERS AND FOREVERFIT MEMBERS ENROLLED IN GHP'S MEDICARE ADVANTAGE PLANS ARE OFFERED FITNESS PROGRAMS AT NO ADDITIONAL COST, DEPENDING ON THE PLAN SELECTED. THE SILVER SNEAKERS PROGRAM PROVIDES MEMBERS WITH A FREE FITNESS CENTER MEMBERSHIP, CUSTOMIZED FITNESS CLASSES DESIGNED FOR OLDER ADULTS, HEALTH EDUCATION SEMINARS AND SOCIAL EVENTS.
