Bloom Healthcare is Excited to announce
we have partnered with Medicare on a new initiative where health care providers who share common goals aimed at improving patient care can work together more effectively. This initiative allows health care professionals, like Bloom Healthcare, to form what is called a “Direct Contracting Entity” or “DCE”, which allows them to work together with the Medicare program and other healthcare professionals to give you more coordinated care and better service.Better Care
Bloom Healthcare and our primary care providers were chosen to participate in this new initiative, and we are excited to announce we have formed a DCE also called Bloom Healthcare, because we think it will help us provide better quality care for you and the rest of our Medicare patients.
Enhanced Services
Bloom Healthcare believes that you would potentially benefit from the enhanced benefits and services offered by this new initiative.
Same Insurance
You do not have to change your insurance. You will keep your Medicare coverage and your healthcare provider of choice! This Medicare program will help us better identify the care and services you need, reduce paperwork and administrative hassles in order to provide better care, improve health outcomes, and lower the cost of care!
