WHAT WE DELIVER
Three sources of value for your plan
We meet your plan where it is — whether you need better analytics, direct cost reduction, or a competitive edge in your next Medicaid RFP.
-
We merge your claims data with HIE and HMIS records to build a precise picture of unhoused members — who they are, what they cost, and where the savings opportunity lies. Includes social vulnerability analytics and HRA compliance support.
-
For 1–2% of your members driving outsized spend, we deliver IT enablement, housing procurement, and high-touch case management — permanently housing members and dramatically reducing utilization within 6–18 months.
-
States increasingly expect Medicaid MCOs to demonstrate meaningful SDOH management. Our proven, community-rooted model gives your plan a credible, documented answer to that expectation — in 5 states and counting.
OUR PROCESS
From identification to permanent housing, end-to-end
Most vendors stop at referrals or navigation. We go all the way — from finding members in the data to keeping them stably housed and measuring every outcome.
01
Identify Members
Merge claims, HIE, and HMIS data in a HIPAA-compliant shared health cloud to pinpoint unhoused members and quantify addressable medical spend.
02
Enable Community Partners
Vet and onboard local CBOs. Deploy Braided, our unified EHR-HMIS platform, for real-time, bidirectional data sharing across housing and health providers.
03
Procure & Place Housing
Reserve rental subsidies, procure scattered-site units, and match members to appropriate housing — using low-barrier, Housing First admission practices.
04
Stabilize & Measure
Deliver high-touch in-home care coordination, benefits navigation, and tenancy support. Track health outcomes and cost savings in real time.
