With great enthusiasm,

I recommend Dr. Bill Naime and his clinical experts at Post Acute Specialists for telehealth medicine.

Dr. Naime and his team consistently demonstrate how bedside specialists improve the lives of our patients and promote positive clinical outcomes. Twenty-five years as a healthcare professional in post-acute care has afforded me the opportunity to engage progressive innovation in the care continuum across the country. Dr. Naime and Post Acute Specialists re-energizes my excitement for the future of healthcare in how they bring specialists to the bedside. Historically, logistics such as transportation, referrals and operational deficits prevent patients from receiving needed specialty care in the post-acute setting. This hinders clinical outcomes with delays in needed assessments and interventions for the patient plan of care. This affects patient wellness and clinical outcomes as well as the quality measures of the facility performance. This advancement in telemedicine challenges those barriers without added expense and drastically improves our ability to provide care to our patients.

Dr. Naime is highly accomplished with a background in wound care focused on the senior patient population in the post-acute setting. His passion stems from a personal journey caring for his parents, and clear vision to provide better outcomes for vulnerable populations. Dr. Naime and PAS skillfully execute a collaborative approach to specialty care and are emerging change agents at the national level.

Post Acute Specialists joined our team at Healthcare last year. Together we bring needed intervention for our patients through their specialists: Cariology, Nephrology, Neurology, Wound Care, Psychiatry, Pulmonary and many more. Since his integration, our quality metrics have improved. Specifically, we have reduced our return to acute transfers with specialty assessments that quickly identify critical changes and needed interventions outside the scope of the SNF attending physician. This prevents hospitalization and unnecessary costs by the patient, insurance, facility while reducing communicable disease. Additionally, our length of stay has improved by eliminating delays.

We are excited to share our experience, collaborations, and outcomes with Post Acute Specialists with other healthcare providers. Together we can change lives!
