Harnessing the power of
Clinical Population Management (CPM)
to transform chronic disease care and outcomes.
Committed to partnering with busy clinicians and their practice teams to achieve the best possible outcomes. |
AN EXPLOSION OF ADVANCES in technology and pharmaceuticals over recent decades has equipped physicians to radically transform outcomes for their chronically ill patients. Just one problem . . . the systems for delivering care haven't kept pace with these advances, making optimal implementation extremely challenging, especially across ever-increasing patient populations.
Our mission is to help chronic disease clinicians solve this problem - not theoretically, but pragmatically through Clinical Population Management (CPM). Joiner Associates is committed to partnering with busy clinicians and their practice teams to improve their systems of care and achieve the best possible outcomes for every patient. |
Our Approach
Developing the simplest pathway for busy clinicians to implement CPM.
FOR MANY YEARS WE'VE been involved in enhancing the performance of complex systems, including the delivery of chronic disease care. In 2013, Joiner Associates introduced an ambitious initiative designed to engage leading clinician rheumatologists in incorporating much-needed CPM capability into their care of rheumatoid arthritis patients.
This ongoing initiative, called the Rheumatoid Arthritis Practice Performance (RAPP) Project, is a voluntary collaboration of nearly 170 rheumatologists who are developing new practice workflows and tools that enable more efficient and effective RA care. We're now striving to openly share all that we've learned so that rheumatologists and other specialists across the entire chronic disease spectrum can use CPM to improve their own patient care and outcomes as well. |

Our Passion
Working to advance the care of chronic disease patients and lower the cost of disease management.
Bringing a unique combination of leadership experience and expertise to address complex problems in the healthcare industry. |
An interplay of expertise.
Joiner brings to the table proven experience in working with innovators and leaders in the field of healthcare. But that's just half the picture. We also have many years of vital experience in private, public, and nonprofit organizations outside the healthcare industry. This interplay of experience gives us proficiency in optimizing resources and skill sets within all kinds of organizations, as well as expertise in coordinating teams and facilitating complex processes. |
Current Projects
RAPP Project
The Rheumatoid Arthritis Practice Performance (RAPP) Project is a clinician-led initiative that is using Clinical Population Management to transform RA care and treatment. |
Open-Access CPM
Using RAPP Project methodology, we're building a streamlined, "open access" approach for implementing Clinical Population Management for all chronic diseases. |
