Why Infera?

Group Medical Practices (GMP) today face more challenges than ever which can tax clinicians, and smaller office staffs. Clinicians in GMPs naturally want to strive to improve the quality of patient care while doing their part to reduce healthcare costs. But these challenges are exacerbated by increasing caseloads, the continuing growth of Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) and reimbursement tide to incentives (and punishments) of healthcare regulations like MIPS (Merit-based Incentive Payment System).

Infera is uniquely positioned to help GMPs by helping primary care physicians practice evidence based medicine, which can help maximize reimbursement, and deal with complex cases themselves, without the need for expensive and time-consuming specialty care.

Hospital and health system executives and clinical leadership face immense challenges when it comes to ensuring quality, consistency, accountability and efficiency. These challenges are exacerbated as a result of having hundreds (if not thousands) of clinicians who are often dispersed across multiple locations.

EMRs and clinical management software, though often maligned by clinicians, are a critical part of the solution, but they have their limitations.  While EMRs excel at centralizing patient data and enabling workflow tasks, they don’t provide the kind of clinical knowledge and data interpretation assistance clinicians often need to better manage patients.  This often leads to costly and time-consuming specialist referrals, sub-optimal patient care and incomplete reimbursement, but can also create risk for organizations.

Infera helps mitigate all of these challenges by providing patient data-driven, evidence-based recommendations at the point-of-care and enabling organizations to author their own care pathways.   And by providing clinicians with a seamless, EHR-based user experience that enhances their knowledge without bogging down their workflow, Infera can help improve clinician regard for your EHR.  

Individual physicians, face most of the challenges of GMPs, but they also know that one of the biggest challenges they face is staying up to date on the latest treatment guidelines and clinical research.  

Infera is available as a stand-alone solution for data input, enabling individual physicians and small practices not using EHRS to take advantage of Infera’s powerful features.

Multiple scenarios can be generated with our Clinical Rules Engine for over 90 conditions, or “Care Pathways” which help evaluate your skills and give you guidance on the most current evidence-based patient care.  Infera helps you learn with:

• Diagnostic considerations
• Treatment plan including medications
• Standard of care to follow for prevention of complications
• Lifestyle modifications
• Follow up and monitoring plan

Infera can help you test your clinical knowledge by providing patient case scenarios that help advance your clinical skills.
