Ascension Illinois uses real-time patient data with programmatic data to improve care

Ascension Illinois use assessment tools through our measurement-based care platform to gather insight into patients' clinical needs. The data helps us customize treatment plans for each individual patient. Personalizing care for every patient is key because doing so allows us to develop a treatment plan that will lead to a faster reduction in symptoms. By having customized data for each patient, we can identify the specific impacts on their lives and develop a treatment plan that addresses those distinct areas. We want to understand what the clinical presentation looks like for each patient, and then observe and measure throughout the course of treatment. If necessary, we can adjust a patient's treatment plan based on the data to address changes in symptoms.
