AMC Health’s Hospital at Home monitoring support program helps to make hospital-level care at home safer and more effective.

AMC Health’s real-time virtual care management solutions complement the in-home care provided by hospital-at-home clinical staff to help improve quality and safety outcomes. Virtual care management helps to ensure that patients remain safe in between clinical in-person visits by enabling providers to continuously monitor patients and by promoting patient adherence to plans of care. 

Our virtual care management solution can help any patient who is a candidate for receiving hospital-level care at home, such as individuals with community-acquired pneumonia, congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or urinary tract infection, to name a few. 

AMC Health’s Hospital at Home monitoring support program offers the following components:   

Biometric monitoring Patients are supplied with easy-to-use monitoring devices, including weight scales, blood glucose meters, blood pressure monitors, thermometers, and pulse oximeters. Wearables for continuous transmission of heart rate, respiratory rate, glucose monitoring, and temperature will be available by the second half of 2023. 

Inhaler tracking — For patients whose pulmonary medication requires tracking, AMC Health supplies inhaler monitors. These devices detect the underuse or overuse of controller and rescue medications.  

MyCare Virtual mobile app — AMC Health’s FDA Class II mobile app facilitates secure, anytime chat and televideo between patients and care teams, automated assessments, and educational medical to guide self-care.

Personal Emergency Response Services (PERS) — We have integrated third-party, 24/7 emergency response services, including wearables for automated fall detection. 

Supplemental telecare management triage services — We provide 24/7 triage services to provide relief for overstretched acute-care-at-home resources.   

Integration with EHR and case management platforms  We ensure that our real-time data collection from the home is seamlessly woven into existing hospital-at-home workflows.

2025 Medicare Advantage Star Ratings: What You Need to Know
Star ratings, which measure quality, customer service, and the member experience, are critical to determine a health plan’s performance, bonus payments and rebates, and are key to enrollment and retention. CMS recently published its 2025 Medicare Advantage and Part D Star Ratings fact sheet. Here, we explore some of our key takeaways, how they will impact your plan, plus, how you can boost your Star ratings in 2026. Medicare Advantage Plans Are Under-Performing CMS’ most recent findings echo trends we’ve seen for quite some time. Approximately 40% of plans that will be offered in 2025 earned 4 or more stars for their 2025 overall rating—down approximately 10% from 2024. Weighted by enrollment, 62% beneficiaries are currently in contracts that will have 4 or more stars in 2025 compared with about 74% last year. CMS found that overall Star ratings have dropped significantly over the past 3 years. In 2022: 152 plans achieved 4 stars or higher, while just 116 plans could say the same for 2025. 74 plans received 5 stars, which dropped to just 7 in 2025. CMS also identified 8 contracts that are consistently low-performing plans—up from 6 contracts last year. Plans that achieve 4 stars or higher are awarded a 5% quality bonus payment. Plans can use the additional payments to cover the cost of supplement benefits, including reduced cost sharing, extra benefits not covered by traditional Medicare, and lowering Part B and/or Part D premiums. CMS noted that changes in Star Ratings year-over-year are normal, expected, and vary by measure. They also stated that cut points are recalculated each year based on performance during the measurement period, and many cut points increased from 2024, meaning that plans had to achieve higher performance on the measures to receive a high Star Rating.

Benefits of Virtual Care for Payers and Their Members
Virtual care solutions can solve some challenges payers face by improving member care, managing rising healthcare costs, improving Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Star Ratings, increasing member engagement, and reducing hospital readmissions. Digital health solutions provide tools that enable payers to address concerns such as social determinants of health (SDOH) by improving access to care while minimizing costs. The benefits of these solutions extend beyond payers, however. Members also experience the benefits of virtual care solutions.
