Benefits of Our Approach
Matrix’s dedicated nursing home physicians can help facilities meet their goals in several important ways:

Quality of care: Studies, as well as our experience, have shown that attentive physicians can improve quality by working with the facility staff to deliver the right care, at the right time, in the right setting.

Satisfaction: Involved physicians can help to increase the satisfaction of residents and families, as well as the facility staff.

Cost: Physicians who are actively involved in resident care can help manage cost by utilizing the formulary and providing care in the facility (not the hospital emergency room).

Survey/regulatory: Active physician participation can help to ensure that quality care is documented, as well as delivered. Matrix has also found that having physicians involved in the survey process, and working closely with the facility staff and survey team, is valuable in completing annual surveys.

Business enhancement: Active physicians can assist the facility in caring for more clinically complex residents, which makes the facility more attractive to hospitals and health plans.

Market differentiation: A dedicated, full-time physician staff can make a facility stand out in the market. Many of the facilities in which Matrix operates communicate the presence of their Matrix physicians to hospital discharge planners, hospitalists, health plan case managers, and prospective residents.
