What You Should Know:
– AristaMD, a digital healthcare company specializing in eConsult and referral management services, today announced the launch of a unified care transition platform.
– The platform seamlessly integrates patient-to-provider matching, electronic referral processing, and eConsults into one single interoperable solution for primary care providers (PCPs). The end-to-end referral solution ensures that all patients receive timely care from the right provider in the right setting and that patients with issues that can be resolved via a peer consultation can receive care directly from their PCP.
AristaMD eConsults Key Features
With AristaMD eConsults, PCPs can request guidance from virtual specialists on specific patient cases, with responses being delivered within hours. More than 73% of eConsults result in the PCP being able to treat the patient without a referral immediately, and over 30% of cases result in a new diagnosis. When a face-to-face referral is necessary, AristaMD’s referral management services match patients to the most appropriate specialists based on the patient’s insurance, location and the sub-specialty required. Referrals can be electronically ordered, removing the legwork of traditional phone and fax while creating the opportunity for PCPs to receive closed-loop electronic communication with specialists that improves overall care coordination.
Additional key benefits include:
● Improved referral intelligence, using customizable algorithms that route patient referrals to the right provider or, when appropriate, to an eConsult
● Expedited testing, diagnosis and treatment to ensure the right provider treats patients in the right setting.
● Increased clinic efficiency – staff can process more referrals in less time by eliminating antiquated procedures and streamlining referral activities into one platform.
