Howard University Hospital is a Level One(1) Trauma Center, one of America`s best hospitals, offering the most comprehensive health care facilities in America. Forerunner of the Howard University Hospital, Freedmen`s Hospital served the black community in the District of Columbia for more than a century. First established in 1862 on the grounds of the Camp Barker, 13th and R Streets, NW, Freedmen`s Hospital and Asylum cared for freed, disabled, and aged blacks. In 1863, it was placed under Dr. Alexander Augusta, the first African-American to head a hospital. After the Civil War, it became the teaching hospital of Howard University Medical School, established in 1868, while remaining under federal control. Early in the 20th century, Congress authorized the construction of a new hospital which was completed in 1909. When Abraham Flexner visited the District of Columbia that year, he was impressed by the new, 278-bed Freedmen`s Hospital and thought only Howard University Medical School in the city had a promising future. In 1967, Freedmen`s Hospital was transferred to Howard University and used as a hospital until 1975. The University Hospital is now located in a modern facility at 2041 Georgia Avenue, NW. The original Freedmen`s building (Bryant and 6th Streets) still stands and now houses Howard University`s John H. Johnson School of Communications. Freedmen`s Hall, a permanent museum located at the University Hospital, is devoted to the history of medical education and health care at Howard University.
Caravan Health is how any provider can make accountable care make sense – regardless of their size, location, history, demographics, or other factors. With all the pressures on health care systems right now, it`s almost impossible to make value-based care add up. Caravan Health changes this by giving providers a way to create more scale, drive more change, and generate more revenue. And it`s why the 125+ providers in our largest ACO last year are on track to receive more than $38 million in shared savings. Providers across the country are using our proven population health programs to ensure better outcomes for their patients every day. Together, we are achieving these goals by forming a national network of community health care providers that benefit collectively from value-based payment programs. By strategically using technology, process improvement, patient engagement, and informatics, we can improve access, reduce costs, and prepare the community health system for new reimbursement models based on wellness and health.
