Using the CareSpan\u00ae Clinic for both in-person and remote primary care, APNs and NPs are able to leverage the power of continuous remote patient monitoring (RPM) coupled with clinical interventions regardless of patient location, embedded analytics, care coordination, care collaboration, patient engagement, and dynamic documentation, to provide better patient outcomes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recent legislation allowing full-practice authority in 23 states has opened the door for NPs and APNs to deliver care to tens-of-millions of people in Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs). As a CareSpan\u00ae Integrated Networks partner, American-APN and its nurse-clinicians can reach the most remote patients with consistent, quality care that includes care collaboration with specialists, diagnostic capabilities regardless of distance and continuity of care for patients with chronic conditions. \u201cOur nurse practitioners are excited to use the CareSpan\u00ae clinic-in-the cloud in patient care. The RPM process, for example, triggers clinical alerts when readings exceed pre-set parameters, allowing timely clinical intervention to prevent crises and avoid the exacerbation of disease conditions,\u201d according to Kate Fiandt PhD, FAANP, FAAN, the CEO of American-APN. \u201cThere is a huge demand among Nurse Practitioners to be independent and to practice at the top of their license, while providing care to the underserved,\u201d added JoEllen Koerner, CareSpan\u00ae Chief Nursing Officer and American-APN Board Member.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe are proud to support American-APN as it tackles the large, unmet need for primary care in the U.S. Seventy-million Americans live in primary care shortage areas across the country,\u201d says Rembert de Villa, CEO CareSpan\u00ae. \u201cThe CareSpan\u00ae Clinic platform brings the right information at the right time to providers and patients, integrated in one robust workflow \u2013 for both in-person and remote care. CareSpan\u00ae delivers world-class technology and business services to independent nurse practitioners so they can focus on delivering quality care.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Terry Knapp, Founder and Chief Medical Officer of CareSpan\u00ae says, \u201cOur vision is for the CareSpan\u00ae Clinic to enable healthcare delivery to scale globally. By integrating care digitally at many levels\u2014technologically, collaboratively, and in terms of patient participation\u2014the CareSpan\u00ae Clinic establishes a common platform to allow the concept of P4 Medicine to become a reality. That is, enabling clinicians to predict individual medical eventualities, prevent adversities that are predicted, personalize treatment strategies, and encourage individual participation in one\u2019s care.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/dev.carespanhealth.com\/about\/reference\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/dev.carespanhealth.com\/about\/reference\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay connected with American-APN and CareSpan\u00ae for additional releases on the future of integrated, digital care.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>About American Advanced Practice Network\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">American-APN is the first professional \u2018group practice without walls\u2019 that brings highly-qualified nurse practitioners to those in need of health care under a collaborative care system that uses cutting edge digital technologies.
