We are Creating Change

It starts with talking with each other; to share the good parts of what is working in our current healthcare system and then developing a plan to implement the best health care practices.

Below are some of the areas where we are creating change.

  • Millennium has engaged healthcare partner organizations, community-based organizations, and voice of customer groups representing Western New York’s eight counties.
  • On track to distribute: $15-20 M – Master Participation Agreements (Contracts to Safety Net Providers)
  • Over 140 Leadership staff, 800 Direct Care Staff, and 400 RNs and LPNs have been trained in the core INTERACT principles and care.
  • The Emergency Department Care Triage (EDCT) project is being implemented at Olean General Hospital, the Erie County Medical Center, Kaleida Health hospitals, Eastern Niagara Hospital, and other facilities across Western New York. Each site has patient navigators dedicated to the project’s goals of reducing avoidable Emergency Department utilization by 25 percent over the next four years.
  • Since November of 2015, we have enrolled more than 500 mothers or expectant mothers into the Community Health Worker Home Visiting Program.
