Louisiana State Medical Society to Partner with KaMMCO Health Solutions

for Statewide Health Information Exchange and Analytics Tools

BATON ROUGE, LA.: Nationwide there’s a transformation of the health care industry underway. Physicians are adopting new performance-based delivery and payment models that demand more patient information as well as require powerful analytics to improve clinical outcomes, reduce inefficiencies and positively impact patient safety. The Louisiana State Medical Society (LSMS) recognizes the changes affecting its statewide membership and is pleased to announce a new partnership with KaMMCO Health Solutions (KHS). 

“Partnering with KHS to access new health information exchange (HIE) and analytics tools allows us to support the physicians of Louisiana with cutting-edge benefits relevant to both patient care and the successful transition to alternative payment models. This is a winning combination for our members,” said LSMS Executive Vice President and CEO, Jeff Williams.

“KHS offers a unique perspective, as they too are physician-led. We are pleased to work with an organization that has experience in developing and successfully maintaining a health information exchange which also serves as the foundation for creation and delivery of meaningful data analytic reports,” added Williams.

KHS President and Chief Executive Officer, Kurt Scott said, “Our new partnership with LSMS represents a statewide membership of engaged and forward-thinking physicians. We look forward to working with LSMS to deliver integral solutions to the Louisiana health care community.”
