“As an independent primary care physician, being part of OHN has meant access to a great support system. Joining OHN has given me a platform to connect with other physicians in the area, build a relationship with various specialists in the region and thus, offer better care to our patients. “My membership also has helped me stay up to date with day-to-day changes in the field of medicine and aided in implementing these in my practice. “Finally, the support offered by OHN in times of the COVID pandemic has been immensely helpful. They have helped keep us all informed, updated and involved.”

OHN partners with my team to tailor interactions, guaranteeing effective communication with our patients and identifying those in need of assistance, all while maintaining the smooth functioning of our daily operations. The resources provided, the information systems and the collaboration with OHN’s registered nurse care coordinators allows me to improve outcomes and reduce readmissions for my patients.

“The OHN team is composed of highly dedicated and innovative leaders and team members to help us navigate an ever-changing landscape in primary care. Being a member and leader within primary care, I see the support they are able to provide clinicians via easy-to-use analytics, education and clinical care management. OHN serves as a partner to ensure negotiations with payers are optimized and reimbursement reflects the high-quality clinical work we provide to the community. It is critically important to be part of a clinically integrated network (CIN), as it allows for one to maintain your own practice and independence, but still have the benefits of large group negotiating power. OHN, unlike other CINs, has been a staple within our community for nearly a decade and their only focus is to improve the care of our community, in partnership with Orlando Health. OHN believes in working as a team with us, which makes our clinicians feel comfortable and assured that they are working with a reliable and dedicated partner.”

“Having served on the Board of Directors, I am proud of the work OHN is doing to improve quality of care for our patients. I find great value in the pediatric vaccination initiatives to bring school-aged students up to date on their vaccines during the pandemic. Initiatives like these provide better care for our pediatric patients in an effort to keep them healthy and feeling well. As the needs of healthcare are ever-changing, I have found consistency in the support and resources made available to my practice by OHN, including updated performance reports and the ability to participate in new value-based care arrangements and stay on top of changes and trends in healthcare. The OHN team helps my practice navigate the continuously changing healthcare landscape.”

“One of the greatest benefits of OHN has been the support and guidance for both physicians and staff to ensure our patients are getting the best care at the best price. Too often, we forget our patients are consumers within the healthcare system, and it becomes our duty as providers to ensure they are receiving the same care we would want for our loved ones. “This leads to the idea that the most important thing about being in the network is that you can offer your patients the best high-quality, low-cost providers in the region who are all working toward the same value-based goals.”

“One of the most impactful benefits of being a part of OHN is reliable access to a comprehensive network of specialists and resources. This integration allows us to collaborate seamlessly, ensuring that our patients receive the most effective and timely care. The network's focus on value-based care has significantly improved cost management. By emphasizing preventive care, we can reduce hospital admissions and unnecessary emergency room visits, ultimately lowering healthcare costs for our patients and the system.

Most notably, being part of this network provides unwavering support and continuous education, keeping us updated with the latest advancements in medical practice and patient care protocols. This not only enhances our professional growth, but also translates into improved care for our patients. Overall, the clinically integrated network fosters a culture of collaboration and excellence. I am proud to be part of a network that prioritizes patient care, cost efficiency and continuous improvement in healthcare delivery.”

“I can describe OHN in two simple words: Patient First. OHN’s patient-first mentality differentiates them from other network models that tend to shift care into delivery models that actually serve to increase costs. “As an independent practice, our group has been able to evaluate multiple clinical networks, and OHN has clearly differentiated itself. OHN has been consistent with clear communication, investment in frontline clinical support and tools, competitive value-based contracting, and the creation of opportunities to deliver high quality clinical care since inception. They understand how primary care drives great patient outcomes and, more broadly, improves community health. Providers benefit from OHN’s well-managed clinically integrated network as they are able to both remove barriers and provide resources allowing our providers to have more meaningful patient interactions. “OHN uniquely provides resources and opportunities for clinicians to be a voice of change as we strive to improve care for our payer partners, employers and, most importantly, our patients. In the past decade of partnering with OHN, and much longer with the Orlando Health hospital system, I have found all levels of the organization have truly embraced a patient first culture and extended it to their community partners through the resources they offer.”

Being a part of this organization has made it possible for me to see the patients that work at Walt Disney World again as well as have the opportunity to see other new patients in other health plans that are a part of the Network. I have also benefitted from the time that the OHN staff has taken to explain to me how the insurance companies are compiling and using my outcomes data so that I can strive to improve my practice. I feel that in this era of healthcare it is important to be a member of a clinically integrated network because being in such a group gives an independent doctor the information that he or she needs in order to be competitive in today’s market. The commercial insurance companies do not compile and use data in the exact same way that Medicare does, so even if a doctor is a part of a Medicare ACO, it is still beneficial to that physician to be a part of a clinically integrated network, too. In my interactions with OHN, I have found the personnel to be organized, easily accessible, and very professional and approachable.”

Having the reliable support of OHN is a benefit that we value as an independent pediatric practice. In the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, we received their support to fit our providers with N95 masks and assist our administration with provision of information on locations to purchase personal protective equipment when it was difficult to find. OHN went above and beyond in providing weekly updates and webinars for information regarding the pandemic. “Being a member physician of OHN is important not only because they are a great resource for providers, but also because it is a way for providers to be held accountable for providing the highest quality of care. OHN is constantly finding ways to improve access to care and to put patients first, while collaboratively working together with community providers. They hold practices to a high standard, and providers who are in the network should feel proud to be recognized for this high-quality level of care. It is a privilege to be a part of OHN and what they represent — excellence and innovation.”

“Having data-based feedback on our practice has been a great mirror for seeing ourselves more clearly. It has helped us identify areas for improvement as well as validate current workflows that are making a difference. Additionally, it has been a great way to learn about and participate in the trend toward models of value-based reimbursement. As an independent practice, it can be easy to feel like one is on an island and having to create all of your own connections to the larger medical community in the area. Being a part of Orlando Health Network (OHN) has improved these connections and communications. Also, as everyone is aware, improving healthcare outcomes while simultaneously lowering costs is something for which we as physicians must accept some responsibility. Involvement in a clinically integrated network is good mechanism for doing so. The OHN administrative team has been so good about initiating regular meetings to show us how we are doing and has done so in a way that is very easy to understand. This data could be fairly complex, but they have made it really accessible. I actually look forward to the quarterly meetings and find them so informative.”

“Being a member of a clinically integrated network, such as the Orlando Health Network, holds significant importance for me as a healthcare provider. Firstly, it promotes a patient-centered approach to healthcare by facilitating care coordination across various specialties and care settings. By collaborating within a network, providers can streamline communication, share medical information and work together to offer comprehensive treatment plans, resulting in improved patient outcomes. Working as a pediatric nurse practitioner at Orlando Health presents the opportunity to impact the lives of children, build relationships with families, deliver holistic care, collaborate with a diverse healthcare team, foster professional growth and make a positive difference in the community.”

“I have had the pleasure of being with the Orlando Health family for the last 11 years. I started as a pediatric resident in 2008 and stayed on as faculty after graduation. I have been on both sides of the spectrum as a patient and a physician. I had both of my children at Winnie Palmer and it was a great experience. When I transitioned to private practice and out of the academic setting, I remained with Orlando Health. I worked with the ER, subspecialists and inpatient team to coordinate patient-centered care from the community setting. Just two years ago, I came back to Orlando Health full-time as part of the Physician Associates family. I could not imagine working anywhere else or having my patients and family cared for anywhere else.”

“In today’s world, medicine no longer functions in silos. We all work in partnership to deliver care to our community and the individual. If we view medicine as a financial endeavor, we only distance ourselves from care delivery and our collective network aims. In that regard, Orlando Health Network (OHN) has helped offer coordinated care to improve quality and is working to address costs without adversely affecting those providing the care. While I have been working with OHN since 2014, I have served the broader community with Orlando Health for more than 20 years. I can say that the work we have been able to accomplish with the network has helped us better advocate for patients, assist us in meeting healthcare’s ever-growing demands, and opened many doors that would have otherwise been shut.”
