What You Should Know:
– Trella Health, a provider of market intelligence and customer relationship management (CRM) for the post-acute care sector, has announced the acquisition of Repisodic, a hospital discharge automation platform.
– The combined platform aims to address the critical gaps in the patient journey from hospital to post-acute care, which often lead to inefficiencies, readmissions, and rising costs.
Addressing the Disconnect in Patient Transitions
The transition from a hospital to post-acute care is a critical and often challenging phase in a patient’s recovery. According to Scott Tapp, CEO of Trella Health, “Too many patients fall through the cracks during the most critical transition in their recovery.” This is supported by Trella Health’s own 2025 Post-Acute Care Industry Trend Report, which found that patients who adhered to home health discharge instructions had a 30-day readmission rate of 12.7%, a notable 2.4 percentage point lower than those who did not.
The integration of Repisodic’s platform with Trella Health’s solutions is designed to bridge this gap. Tyler Rardin, General Manager at Trella Health, highlights the inefficiency of traditional discharge processes, which often rely on “paper lists, faxes, and verbal handoffs.” The new combined solution extends Trella’s data infrastructure further upstream, aligning insights and workflows from discharge through post-acute recovery to deliver better outcomes.
Driving Tangible Results for Health Systems
Founded in 2017, Repisodic has already demonstrated its value in improving the hospital discharge process. Its EHR-integrated automation platform helps health systems streamline care transitions and accelerate discharges. For example, Yale New Haven Health has seen a full-day reduction in inpatient length of stay for SNF discharges, resulting in millions of dollars in financial benefits and tens of thousands of patient days saved annually. This success is a testament to the power of a data-driven, automated approach to discharge planning.
The merger will provide new value for Trella Health’s post-acute customers by enabling more robust communication with hospital case managers and patients. This includes real-time visibility into referrals, patient acuity, and provider capabilities, which helps improve alignment with post-acute capacity, payer contracts, and authorizations.
Impact for Trella Health
With Repisodic, Trella Health now serves over 50 health systems and more than 1,000 post-acute organizations nationwide, connecting with over 30 acute and post-acute EHR systems. This merger not only enhances care coordination but also advances Trella Health’s broader strategy to build a massive healthcare data lake, which will power AI-driven insights to streamline workflows and advance value-based outcomes.
