Supporting Rural Health During the Transformation
Rural hospitals are the heart of their communities, providing essential care where access is often limited. Through the federal Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP), states are investing in projects that strengthen these hospitals, expand access, and improve outcomes for the patients who rely on them.
CorVent Medical is uniquely positioned to advance the objectives of the Rural Health Transformation Grant by delivering a comprehensive, technology-driven solution to improve access, quality, and efficiency in rural healthcare. Our ventilator enables rural hospitals and critical access facilities to manage complex patient care locally, reducing the need for transfers to urban centers and improving patient outcomes.
Strategic Goals | Emergency Preparedness and Remote Care Services
CorVent can provide a thorough solution that incorporates emergency preparedness, remote patient monitoring care services, and supports the five strategic goals of the RHTP.
Key elements include:
- Innovative Care: Ventilator solutions with zero-maintenance, easy-to-use, and easily stored ventilator that can meet shifting acuity needs in rural hospitals.
- Tech Innovation: Our rural health network initiatives are helping rural providers form or expand integrated health networks. Through CorVent’s remote patient monitoring capabilities, hospitals can improve care delivery, coordination, and outcomes in rural communities.
- Make Rural America Healthy Again: Supporting rural providers to affiliate with high-quality regional health systems and supplement access to specialty services.
- Sustainable Access: CorVent’s value-based care initiatives help reduce hospital costs by decreasing ICU length of stay (LOS) and minimizing readmissions.
- Workforce Development: With our telehealth and telemedicine impact, we can reduce unnecessary transfers, keep healthcare personnel employed locally, and improve patient outcomes by allowing treatment close to home.
Outcomes Withing 12-Months
CorVent can also show tangible, measurable outcomes within 12 months of deployment that match the requirements of the Rural Health Transformation Program:
Trusted Data - validated by a 251k cohort patient study performed by NHS in UK.
- Reduce ICU transfers by 50%
- Reduce ICU mortality by 25%
- Reduce cardiac arrests by 35%
- Reduce 30-day readmission for COPD/ARDS patients by 30%
- Achieve savings of $2,000 per ventilated patient over their admission (approx. $200,000 annually in a 25-bed facility, $500,000 in a 50-bed facility, and $900,000 in a 100-bed facility)
If your state is still collecting feedback on the rural transformation, there is a form for each state survey here where you can find all the state information on inputs and dates. If the survey is closed, your state has until Nov. 5th to submit the grant language.
