How Does BHG Work with Emergency Partners?
In this video, Tony Kilgore, Chief Executive Officer of BHG, shows how partnerships support opioid use disorder treatment by improving outcomes, reducing readmissions and strengthening the continuum of care. It also highlights BHG’s commitment to delivering compassionate, evidence-based care in collaboration with healthcare providers.
Strengthening Opioid Use Disorder Treatment in EDs
Opioid use disorder treatment improves when providers work closely with emergency departments and acute care settings. BHG partners with hospitals and emergency care teams to create a more connected approach to care.
These partnerships help ensure individuals receive timely support and a clear path from emergency care into ongoing treatment.
Improving Outcomes and Reducing Readmissions
Opioid use disorder treatment is more effective when care continues beyond the emergency visit. Strong coordination with emergency partners helps improve outcomes and reduce readmissions by connecting patients to ongoing care.
This approach helps individuals stay engaged in treatment and continue making progress after discharge.
Supporting the Continuum of Care
Opioid use disorder treatment requires ongoing support across different stages of recovery. Partnerships with emergency departments help strengthen the continuum of care, starting at the point of crisis and continuing into long-term treatment.
This continuity helps reduce gaps and supports a more stable recovery experience.
Delivering Evidence-Based, Patient-Centered Care
BHG delivers opioid use disorder treatment through evidence-based practices and a patient-centered approach. Care focuses on meeting individual needs while maintaining consistency and quality.
This helps patients feel supported and encourages continued engagement in care.
Expanding Access Through Emergency Collaboration
Collaboration with emergency partners plays a key role in connecting individuals to care quickly. By working closely with hospitals and acute care providers, BHG helps ensure patients can transition into treatment without delay.
This ensures more individuals receive the support they need at a critical moment.
