American Oncology Network (AON) and Vantage Health Technologies Partner to Improve Cancer Patient Outcomes with AI-enabled Value-Based Care Platform
American Oncology Network (AON) has partnered with Vantage Health Technologies to enhance cancer care delivery through an AI-enabled value-based care platform. The collaboration will initially implement Vantage's SocialHealth360 solution to improve patient navigation and address Social Determinants of Health (SDoH). The platform is expected to save healthcare professionals 5-8 hours weekly on administrative tasks, reduce provider burnout, and improve patient outcomes while lowering care costs. Future phases will focus on implementing AI solutions for value-based care use-cases.

La collaborazione implementerà inizialmente la soluzione SocialHealth360 di Vantage per migliorare la navigazione dei pazienti e affrontare i Determinanti Sociali della Salute (SDoH). Si prevede che la piattaforma permetterà ai professionisti sanitari di risparmiare 5-8 ore settimanali in compiti amministrativi, ridurrà il burnout degli operatori e migliorerà i risultati per i pazienti, abbattendo i costi dell'assistenza. Le fasi future si concentreranno sull'implementazione di soluzioni IA per casi d'uso di assistenza basata sul valore.

Das American Oncology Network (AON) hat sich mit Vantage Health Technologies zusammengeschlossen, um die Krebsversorgung über eine KI-gestützte wertbasierte Gesundheitsplattform zu verbessern. Die Zusammenarbeit wird zunächst die SocialHealth360-Lösung von Vantage implementieren, um die Patientennavigation zu verbessern und die sozialen Bestimmungsfaktoren für Gesundheit (SDoH) anzugehen. Es wird erwartet, dass die Plattform den Gesundheitsfachkräften wöchentlich 5-8 Stunden bei administrativen Aufgaben einspart, Burnout bei den Anbietern reduziert und die Patientenergebnisse verbessert, während die Kosten für die Versorgung gesenkt werden. Zukünftige Phasen werden sich auf die Implementierung von KI-Lösungen für wertbasierte Anwendungsfälle konzentrieren.

Insights
This partnership marks a strategic move into AI-enabled healthcare optimization, but its immediate financial impact appears The SocialHealth360 implementation could yield operational efficiencies through 5-8 hours weekly time savings per healthcare professional, potentially reducing labor costs. However, the phased rollout and focus on administrative improvements suggest gradual rather than immediate revenue impact.
The platform's ability to address Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) could improve patient retention and treatment adherence, indirectly supporting revenue stability. For a company with a
The operational implications of this partnership are significant for care delivery optimization. By integrating AI-driven insights for SDoH factors, AON can potentially reduce patient no-shows and improve treatment adherence - two critical metrics in oncology practice management. The workflow efficiency gains could translate to handling more patient cases without proportional staff increases.
The phased implementation approach, starting with patient navigation and care coordination, demonstrates a pragmatic strategy to establish foundational improvements before expanding to more complex value-based care applications. This systematic approach reduces implementation risks while allowing for operational adjustments based on early results.
FORT MYERS, FL, Oct. 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- American Oncology Network (AON) (OTCQX: AONC), one of the fastest-growing oncology networks in the United States, has partnered with Vantage Health Technologies to enhance access to and delivery of exceptional cancer care. Vantage’s AI-enabled platform provides real-time health data for actionable insights and next-best-actions that can promote better patient experiences and outcomes, reduce provider burnout, and lower the cost of care. The platform also helps AON further enhance its Value-Based Care model in community oncology.
“We are pleased to collaborate with Vantage Health Technologies to further enhance our ability to provide exceptional, patient-first care in our community-based cancer clinics across the country,” said Alti Rahman, chief strategy and innovation officer of American Oncology Network. “Everyone benefits from Value-Based Care models powered by actionable data that offer providers a more holistic, real-time picture of their patients so they can meet them where they are and help them make better-informed decisions. Providers have the information they need to offer exceedingly personalized and effective care, patient experiences and outcomes are expected to improve, and the cost of care can be reduced for the entire ecosystem. This partnership will further our ability to provide an exceptionally high-quality experience for all.”
The first phase of the partnership will harness Vantage’s SocialHealth360 solution to enhance patient navigation and care coordination services, with an emphasis on addressing Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) for vulnerable patients. The World Health Organization cites research indicating that SDoH, such as housing, food security, transportation, and health literacy, significantly influence up to more than half of patient outcomes. Initial findings attributed to the use of SocialHealth360 found that it helped improve patient experience, treatment outcomes, and total cost of care among cancer patients. Additionally, health professionals using Vantage’s SocialHealth360 are expected to save up to five to eight hours per week on administrative tasks through workflow efficiencies, which decreases burnout and increases time they can spend helping patients. Subsequent phases of the partnership will focus on applying AI solutions to operationalize upstream and downstream Value-Based Care use-cases.
Vantage Health Technologies is part of BroadReach Group, a global healthcare social enterprise. “Healthcare globally faces shortages of providers, shrinking budgets and inadequate resources,” said Dr. John Sargent, co-founder of BroadReach Group. “We believe that technology can be a game changer for these healthcare challenges by automating and streamlining time-consuming processes, by assisting providers to manage patients more efficiently, and by empowering patients to more effectively self-manage aspects of their care. We have been proving this for the past decade in multiple countries across three continents. Our partnership with AON allows us to deploy this experience and expertise to community oncology to ensure better patient outcomes and experience, to reduce staff burnout and create pioneering approaches to value-based care.”
