Treating the Modern Patient
The future of healthcare is connected — especially when it comes to patient engagement.
Today’s modern patient wants a front-row seat to their healthcare experience, with active involvement each step of the way.
To meet patient needs, healthcare organizations need the latest tools and solutions. Let’s take a look at key technologies for connected care.
Administration goes digital.
Healthcare’s digital transformation extends to the patient experience, including appointment scheduling, check-in, payment, test results and more.
With patient portal technology and Electronic Health Records (EHR), you’ll streamline patient and provider tools into one cohesive platform.
Patients will enjoy:
- Online scheduling & registration
- Anytime access to test results
- Payment & benefit tools
- Simplified form completion
- Efficient referral & prescription refill requests
- Secure Q&A with their physician
Providers will enjoy:
- Streamlined administrative tasks
- Improved medication adherence
- Enhanced patient-physician relationships
- Optimized information gathering
- Quick access to health records
- Better patient outcomes
Anywhere care
The telehealth surge created by COVID-19 isn’t slowing down.
83% of patients said they are likely to use telemedicine after COVID-19- $79.79 billion -> $396.76 billion
- Projected global telemedicine market growth from 2020 to 2027, in USD
When you provide easy-to-use, secure telehealth options, you’ll meet changing patient expectations, increase engagement and cut costs.
Advantages of telehealth
Patient benefits
- Convenience & efficiency
- Early and timely diagnoses
- Avoids preventable readmissions
Provider benefits
- Optimized patient flow
- More accurate data from outpatient visits
- Increased quality of care
Beyond the appointment
Constant observation and communication are crucial to better patient care.
Remote patient monitoring (RPM) keeps patients and care providers in touch no matter their location, providing the ability to easily coordinate treatment and manage care from afar.
RPM consists of connected medical devices, such as digital blood pressure cuffs, glucose monitors and health apps. These tools can:
- Improve clinical decision-making
- Increase access to care
- Optimize staff efficiency
All while cutting down on time, costs and resources.
Insider Intelligence estimates 30 million US patients, or 11.2% of the population, will use RPM tools by 2024.
