Conviva Care Centers, Partners in Primary Care, and Family Physicians Group staffs create new standards for patient safety
Leading health and well-being company Humana Inc. (NYSE: HUM) announced today that its senior-focused primary care subsidiaries Conviva Care Centers, Partners in Primary Care, and Family Physicians Group have implemented new company COVID-19 Prevention Standards intended to ensure the highest level of safety when patients attend in-person doctor appointments, providing patients confidence to receive much-needed tests and health screenings.
“The medical professionals at Conviva Care Centers, Partners in Primary Care, and Family Physicians Group are committed to meeting the needs of all of their patients – and are taking every precaution they know to take to keep their patients safe,” said William Shrank, MD, MPHS, Humana’s Chief Medical and Corporate Affairs Officer. “These COVID-19 Prevention Standards are based on guidance from the CDC and local health departments. For those patients who need or prefer to receive care in person, they can be assured that our teams are well prepared to deliver that care as safely as possible.”
Below is a list of the primary COVID-19 Prevention Standards staff members are following at Conviva Care Centers, Partners in Primary Care, and Family Physicians Group facilities to ensure the safety of our patients and staff:
COVID-19 Prevention Standards
Healthy Staff
Patient Health
Prevention with Distancing
Clean Clinical Environment
Alternative Visit Options
COVID-19 Prevention Standards are grounded in guidance from the CDC and local health departments, and are subject to change in order to provide a safe environment for face-to-face interactions in our centers.
“The safety of our patients and staff members is our top priority, now and always,” said Tina Shenouda, MD, Partners in Primary Care and Family Physicians Group’s Chief Medical Officer. “For patients who prefer to have face-to-face visits with their physician and care team, we are looking forward to seeing them in our centers and putting forth our COVID-19 Prevention Standards – to reinforce the safety protocols and add an additional layer of protection for our patients and staff. For those patients who have some reservations about face-to-face visits, we will continue to offer telehealth and curbside visits in some locations.”
For those patients who cannot attend an in-person appointment, these practices offer robust virtual care options. Conviva Care Centers, Partners in Primary Care, and Family Physicians Group are leveraging and extending their value-based care model to ensure continued access to care for their patients. In addition to making proactive outreach calls to patients, these practices have adapted their care delivery to support social distancing by helping seniors adopt new technology in video visits and virtual health education. This extends care into the home – supporting CDC directives to keep this most vulnerable patient population safe.
“Putting our patients first is part of our DNA at Conviva and the COVID-19 Prevention Standards are critical to maintaining the safety of our patients and team members,” said Steve Lee, MD, President of Conviva Physician Group. “Regular temperature checks and masks for staff members and our patients are essential enhancements that help to keep everyone safe. Our patients are put at ease, reassured and comforted by the calls they receive from their physicians for telemedicine visits, and when they need to be seen they know that excellent standards are in place for their safe transportation, arrival, and treatment at our centers.”
