SEATTLE, October 5, 2021 (Newswire.com) - MedBridge and KanTime Healthcare Software are partnering to help home care and hospice agencies deliver higher quality of care by engaging staff and patients with evidence-based education on an innovative technology platform. 

KanTime Healthcare Software provides cloud-based enterprise software to home health and hospice agencies to help improve clinical compliance, increase operational efficiency, and achieve financial success. MedBridge develops best-in-class healthcare education and patient engagement solutions that allow organizations to significantly improve staff retention, quality of care, and margins.

As the home health industry continues to face challenges around staff retention, agencies are searching for ways to better attract, onboard, and engage staff. MedBridge helps agencies create targeted onboarding programs at scale to put confident and competent staff in the field sooner, and allows organizations to build ongoing development programs for advanced specialization, as well as remediation tracks to address gaps in performance.

Kristen Duell, Executive Vice President of Business Development & Marketing at KanTime Healthcare Software, shared the impact of KanTime's partnership with MedBridge. "MedBridge is the leading provider of evidence-based education and training solutions, and our collaboration will help our clients take their onboarding and workforce development initiatives to the next level," she said. "MedBridge's solution allows our clients to access thousands of courses and pre-built education programs, simplifying and improving the overall experience while ensuring their staff are well prepared for the field." 

MedBridge's virtual platform helps agencies elevate quality of care at a lower cost by helping them more effectively manage their patient populations. Hundreds of home care and hospice organizations have leveraged MedBridge's patient education and virtual care tools to create blended models of care, standardized pathways, and templated programs for staff and patients to help reduce unnecessary visits and cost per episode of care.

"We see great alignment in our partnership with KanTime Healthcare Software, and we're excited to provide additional value for our mutual clients who are striving to keep pace with growing demand while continuing to provide optimal care," said Jim Lezzer, Director of Strategic Partnerships at MedBridge. "As the home care industry prepares for the upcoming rollout of Home Health Value-based Purchasing while navigating the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, innovation is going to be key to overcome the many challenges that lie ahead. This partnership will help provide home care agencies with the innovative solutions they need to maintain clinical capacity and improve patient outcomes."
