Improving Clinical Outcomes for 12+ Years

We are a leading physician partner to hospitals, health plans, physician groups, and post-acute providers seeking to transform outcomes for acute episodes of care. For 12+ years, our high-performing and affordable care models have consistently combined physician leadership, clinical process, technology, and analytics to improve clinical and financial performance. We are pioneers in value, working with our partners and community providers to bridge gaps in patient care, from hospital to home.

Telemedicine

In post-acute and long-term care understanding, our network of highly-trained physicians are experts in managing acutely ill patients in any setting. They are available 24/7 to support skilled nursing facilities, and home health providers manage their most vulnerable patients. We improve nurse satisfaction by reaching patients when others cannot dramatically reduce hospital readmissions and boost provider revenues.

Connecting Skilled and Long-Term Care Facilities to Better Outcomes

We believe that skilled nursing and long-term care facilities with a higher level of physician engagement will survive today's challenges and continue to thrive in the post-acute world of tomorrow. With 20 years of experience as a leading nationwide physician, Sound Physicians is uniquely positioned to improve clinical outcomes and reduce hospital readmissions from skilled nursing and long-term care.

Expanding Home Health Capabilities

Our providers partner with Home Health Agencies to improve access and clinical outcomes for patients who need home health services. Leveraging telemedicine, our physicians provide a full range of clinical support, from certifying home health orders to expanding the potential for higher-acuity care in the home.

A Value-Based Partner for Acute Care Episodes

We provide physician groups an aligned partner in the inpatient setting to improve clinical outcomes for their patient populations. We deploy value-based care interventions from the point of admission and offer telemedicine capabilities to extend our hospitalists' reach into post-acute care settings.

Value-Based Care

Physician groups know from experience that they can easily lose track of what's happening to their hospitalized patients. When taking the full risk from a health plan, this breakdown in continuity can be extremely costly for the patient and the group. With 20 years of value-based hospitalist practice know-how, we help groups build a dedicated, aligned hospitalist network to manage total cost of care, support risk adjustment effectively, and successfully transition patients back to their PCP and aligned specialists.

We have been the largest physician group participant in BPCI and BPCIA, reducing episode costs by 8% – 10%

We are helping the nation's leading at-risk physician groups use hospitalists to drive better outcomes.
