Healthy Interactions Primary Care Alliance Supports Clinics to Improve Cardiometabolic Care
JACKSON HOLE, Wyo., -- Healthy Interactions LLC, a global leader in experiential education for healthcare professionals and patients, is teaming up with the DARTNet Institute, to accelerate transformation of primary care by driving structural and behavioral change toward improving obesity and cardiometabolic health across the United States.
By establishing a new collaborative organization, the Healthy Interactions Primary Care Alliance, primary care clinics will be introduced to new tools and workflows that accelerate the dissemination and implementation of evidence-based obesity and cardiometabolic strategies and advance primary care delivery across thousands of primary care practices.
The DARTNet Institute is a nonprofit organization known for its expertise in supporting practice-based research. DARTNet will play a key role in scaling new initiatives to the most innovative primary care practices nationwide. DARTNet brings extensive experience engaging and collaborating with a consortium of partner practices that empower healthcare professionals to implement the most up-to-date and effective care management processes.
The collaboration brings together a diverse group of primary care practices, academic centers, and health systems. Since nearly all metabolic care is initiated in primary care settings, the program will focus initially on the diagnosis and treatment of obesity and associated comorbidities, including cardiovascular disease, prior cardiovascular events, chronic kidney disease, diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, and peripheral vascular disease.
An important initial focus of the work will be to enhance community health care teams by introducing reimbursable primary care educational support services. Practice Facilitators will be engaged to support clinical workflow and operational changes in care delivery.
This exciting new collaboration brings together the educational expertise of Healthy Interactions with the practice expertise of the DARTNet Institute to improve care for people with obesity and cardiometabolic health issues.
"DARTNet is excited to be collaborating with Healthy Interactions to aggressively support primary care clinicians and practices in helping the majority of the US population at considerable risk for cardiometabolic complications. With new approaches to support behavioral change as well as medical therapy for risk factors such as obesity, primary care clinicians are asking for training and supportive systems for which Healthy Interactions and DARTNet can provide education and implementation support," noted Dr. Wilson Pace, Chief Medical and Technology Officer.
