HealthBase

Finish the application, not just the referral

HealthBase is care coordination software for health centers, health systems, behavioral health providers, community organizations and employers. Staff complete benefit applications with people and follow each one through, with your team or ours doing the work.

What changes

Less running around for the people you serve and your staff

Too often, people are handed a referral and left to follow up on their own. With HealthBase, the work gets finished while the person is still with you.

For the people you serve

People answer questions once, not on five forms. Staff submit applications for food, cash assistance, Medicaid and more during the visit, so people leave with benefits in process.

For your staff

Care coordinators and community health workers see each person’s needs, applications and next steps in one place. A phone call, a fax and a follow-up become one visit.

For your program

Every application is tracked until it is decided, across your team and partners. You can show funders what was applied for, approved and resolved.

Two ways to run it

Run HealthBase with your own team, or have ours run it for you

It is the same HealthBase either way. The difference is who does the day-to-day work with the people you serve.

Your team runs it

Your care coordinators, navigators and community health workers use HealthBase every day. We set it up around your programs and partners, train your staff and support them after launch.

A good fit for

  • Health centers and health systems with care coordination staff
  • Behavioral health providers
  • Community organizations and grant-funded programs that work across partners

ITO staff run it for you

Trained ITO navigators and community health workers use HealthBase on your behalf, from the first conversation until each need is resolved.

A good fit for

  • Employers supporting frontline and hourly workers
  • Organizations without staff to spare for benefits work
  • Programs that want the work done without hiring a team for it

State case study

Applications finished at the first appointment, across a whole partner network

Community health workers and case managers filled in and submitted applications for food assistance, cash assistance and Medicaid renewals while the person was with them. People left with their benefits in process.

“The platform has reduced the time spent completing applications and has streamlined how staff support patients in navigating benefits and services. These efficiencies have allowed our team to focus more time on direct patient engagement and care coordination.”

ITO runs it for you

Our navigators do the work alongside the people you serve

Some organizations want the results without building a benefits team. ITO’s trained navigators and community health workers run HealthBase for you. They complete applications with people, gather documents, work with the agencies and follow up until each need is resolved.

Employers are served mainly this way. Participation is voluntary and confidential: you see what the program achieves, never an employee’s details.

This is the service we used to call HealthWorks.

  • Healthcare

Works with MediKey

Keep people covered from the same place

MediKey runs inside HealthBase

MediKey is our Medicaid enrollment and renewal software. Switched on in HealthBase, it uses the same records and the same team to reach people before their renewal is due, so coverage does not lapse while you help with everything else.
