NPG Health Collaborative
NPG Health Collaborative, LLC (NPG Health) was formed as a separate legal entity to apply for the CMS Shared Savings Program. NPG Health is a collaboration of hospitals, rural health clinics and physicians located in the Midwest.
The goal of NPG Health is to improve the health and wellness of the members of our communities. We intend to improve the quality of care and patient satisfaction, increase preventive health and wellness alternatives, and decrease the costs of healthcare for our Medicare patients.
With more than 140 providers across 12 rural hospitals and over 14,000 Medicare beneficiaries, NPG Health’s goal is to assist rural hospitals and their associated clinics in creating comprehensive population health management programs to achieve superior patient care, patient engagement and high quality outcomes for their rural community Medicare beneficiaries.
NPG Health Collaborative, LLC was formed and is managed by Prairie Health Ventures (PHV). PHV is a leading alliance of hospitals and non-acute healthcare organizations in the Midwest. Member owned and directed, our growing membership of over 50 hospitals and 600 plus affiliate healthcare and business organizations across the region is actively engaged in a variety of business activities aimed at providing solutions to improve access, quality, patient care and business performance.
