Within its innovation team, SCL Health started the Innovation Challenge, which provides up to $250,000 in funding for providers who develop novel ideas that address the patient journey outside the hospital.
Additionally, SCL has opened up 90 percent of primary care physicians’ schedules in Denver that provide patients easier access to care. Patients can go to an online portal to schedule appointments, digitally check and make payments. Later this year, SCL Health plans to increase its virtual health modalities and lower costs for patients with its electronic visit options.
