The National Cooperative of Health Networks Association (NCHN) is a national professional membership organization comprised exclusively of health networks, alliances, and/or consortiums dedicated to supporting the success of health networks.
Help us celebrate our 30th year (1995-2025) by donating to our celebration in Indianapolis the week of April 14, 2025.
NCHN Business Partner Features
Caret Health has a next generation technology solution, including staffing, that provides a hyper-focused turnkey approach to identifying and engaging Rural Hospitals’ and Clinics’ highest risk patient populations remotely, to close more care gaps on behalf of our clients’ providers, leading to much improved performance with Quality and Cost Efficiencies. Typically, 50% or more of high-risk patients’ care gaps can be closed with Caret’s Remote Care Interventions Solution, which also significantly reduces physician and administrative burdens.
Caret Health is Bridging the Technology Gap for Rural Hospitals and Clinics
“I’ve had a passion for rural healthcare as a result of my work over the past two decades with Studer Group, Caravan Health and now Caret Health, and I’ve worked with hundreds of rural executive teams and their boards to provide solutions that make healthcare better for patients, physicians and employees in rural communities. Given existing technology limitations in rural healthcare I believe that together, with Caret Health’s technology platform, we can forge a more resilient and accessible rural healthcare landscape. Thank you for your continued dedication to improving healthcare in our communities.” -
George Scarborough Sr VP at Caret Health
