The Interprofessional Student Hotspotting Learning Collaborative brings together a team of students who work closely with individual patients with complex medical histories who are “super-utilizers” of health care resources.

• Learn about our patient’s health from their perspective and develop a plan based on the patient’s goals and perceived needs
• Minimize misuse and miscommunication that had previously hindered the patient healthcare experience.
• Bring unique perspectives from each of our respective disciplines to improve upon inefficiencies in care
• Our team consisted of students from the colleges of Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, Nursing, …

Individuals with complex health and social needs drive much of the total cost of care, accounting for nearly 50% of annual costs.

Federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) provide patients with medical homes where they can build ongoing, personal relationships with treatment teams, resulting in continuous, comprehensive and integrated care.

Additionally, addressing these individuals' needs and decreasing costs requires interprofessional teams to engage with communities …

Healthcare spending in the U.S. reached $3.5 trillion in 20171. Half of this spending was due to only 5% of patients.

Supporting such patients with nutrition information, care coordination, clinician communication, health education, and treatment adherence coaching benefits the patients, clinicians, and healthcare system. The Jefferson Interprofessional Student Hotspotting Program places students of different educational programs into teams to identify high-utilizing patients and provide them individualized and holistic care. It is an intimate longitudinal clinical experience for students and an opportunity to improve the health of complex …

United States Healthcare Dilemma

In the United States, a large proportion of healthcare resources and costs are utilized by a small percentage of the population.

• Approximately 25% of the United States healthcare costs are incurred by 1 percent of the population, while 5% are of healthcare costs are incurred by 50% of the population. The small percentage of the individuals who consume large amounts of resources has led to the term “super-utilizers.”
• These patients usually have complex and hard-to-manage conditions, as well as socioeconomic barriers to care, which frequently lead to potentially avoidable emergency department and hospital admissions and complications. …
