Forget yesterday's house calls: doctor and dusty medical bag tending a swooning patient. Today's home visits provide a unique perspective on the patient experience while helping individuals meet everyday needs, avoid rehospitalization or an ER visit, and connect with community resources.

Three-fourths of healthcare organizations visit some percentage of their patients or health plan members in their homes, according to new market data from the Healthcare Intelligence Network.

2013 Healthcare Benchmarks: Home Visits examines the latest trends in home visits for medical purposes, from the populations visited to top health tasks performed in the home to results and ROI from home interventions.

This 40-page report analyzes the responses of 155 healthcare organizations to HIN's inaugural industry survey on home visits conducted in August 2013. It is designed to meet business and planning needs of health plans, employers, managed care organizations, physician organizations, health systems and others by providing critical benchmarks in home-based health visits.
