The Los Angeles County Department of Health Services has selected
the Allscripts (NASDAQ:MDRX) managed care solution EZ-CAP to more
effectively operate its current managed care portfolio and over
336,000 managed care patients. This partnership will empower Los
Angeles County to realize numerous benefits in cost savings,
improve effectiveness, and operational efficiencies in clinical and
administrative business processes.
Forward-thinking healthcare leaders and
administrators are getting prepared for the advent of the
value-based world. Allscripts EZ-CAP solves for the obstacles
payers, providers and hospitals face in this transition to
value-based care, supporting risk-taking payment models and
contracts.
The Los Angeles County Department of Health
Services (DHS), the second largest U.S. municipal system,
encompasses hospitals and outpatient clinics. The mission of DHS is
to ensure access to high-quality, patient-centered, cost-effective
health care for Los Angeles County residents through direct
services at DHS facilities, and through collaboration with
community and university partners. The agreement between DHS and
Allscripts was signed during the third quarter of 2016.
“DHS has always been focused on improving the
health of our community and is committed to continue innovating in
the managed care population health area,” said Tangerine Brigham,
Deputy Director of Managed Care Services, Los Angeles County
Department of Health Services. “EZ-CAP will enable us to continue
providing high-quality solutions that handle all core
administrative systems that often arise when implementing managed
care population health initiatives.”
EZ-CAP brings health benefit administration,
claims and other healthcare transactions together on one management
platform to effectively support daily operations while optimizing

maximize electronic data interchange while minimizing
implementation time. By optimizing productivity and managing daily
operations, EZ-CAP delivers extensive value as the industry’s
leading platform. More than 100 organizations are currently using

“EZ-CAP will empower the Los Angeles County
Department of Health to stay focused on serving its members and
improving population health, while making the business of
