We track avoidable escalations of care associated with chronic edema and lymphatic disease—especially episodes driven by cellulitis risk, skin breakdown, and uncontrolled swelling. Rates are trended over time for enrolled patients using available utilization notifications and documented clinical events. When additional data feeds are available, results are validated against partner-provided utilization reporting.

Outcomes Methods & DataWe monitor skin integrity at every visit and document changes such as new breakdown, worsening drainage, signs of infection risk, and need for escalation to the referring provider. Complication rates are tracked as documented clinical events over time for the enrolled population. This is paired with adherence to compression, skin care routines, and early identification workflows that reduce preventable deterioration.

Outcomes Methods & DataTime to first visit is calculated as the number of calendar days from receipt of a complete referral (required demographics, clinical indication, and payer information) to the first completed in-home evaluation/visit. We track this across all new-start patients during the measurement window and monitor delays separately (referral completeness, authorization timing, patient scheduling barriers).

Outcomes Methods & DataAdmissions are tracked during active enrollment using documented patient/caregiver reports, provider updates, and care coordination records. When available, partner utilization reporting is used to validate trends. The reported change reflects admissions during the measurement window, with focus on edema-driven triggers (infection risk, skin breakdown, uncontrolled swelling).

Outcomes Methods & DataLymphedema is a chronic and progressive condition characterized by the swelling of a body part, most commonly an arm or leg, due to a buildup of protein-rich fluid called lymph. This accumulation occurs when the lymphatic system—a critical part of the immune system that drains fluid and filters toxins—is damaged or blocked. is.
Edema, or chronic swelling, can be a frustrating condition to manage, but thanks to telehealth, you don’t have to face it alone. Telemedicine is transforming how you can monitor and manage your fluid build-up from the comfort of your home, saving you travel time and stress. By leveraging your smartphone or computer, you can partner with your healthcare team to maintain control and spot issues before they escalate.
Cellulitis is a potentially serious bacterial skin infection that presents as redness, swelling, and pain, often in the lower legs. It occurs when bacteria, usually Streptococcus or Staphylococcus, enter the deeper layers of the skin through a break in the skin barrier. While it is treatable with antibiotics, preventing the infection in the first place is the best defense. The three key preventative measures focus on protecting the skin, practicing meticulous wound care, and managing underlying health conditions that increase risk.
