LifeBridge Health selects DocASAP's platform to strengthen accessibility across the Mid-Atlantic through accurate online scheduling, patient-provider matching and health plan digital channels.
HERNDON, Va., March 4, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- DocASAP, the industry's most advanced patient access and engagement platform for health systems, health plans and physician groups, today announced a new partnership with LifeBridge Health, one of the largest and most comprehensive providers of health-related services to the people of the Greater Baltimore region. The partnership will help optimize access to care for the diverse patient population and health plan members LifeBridge Health serves across its growing network of hospitals, outpatient services and clinical centers.
"We have a strategic focus on improving the health of our patient population through enhanced access and care coordination; however, navigating a large health care system can sometimes be a challenge for our patients. As we strive to be the most-accessible health system in the Mid-Atlantic, we look forward to seeing how this new technology can help our patients connect and coordinate with their care providers," said Matthew Poffenroth, M.D., chief clinical officer for LifeBridge Health.
DocASAP's platform enables LifeBridge to optimize access to care by navigating patients to the right provider and care setting at the right time. The patient access and engagement platform further ensures that LifeBridge Health patients can stay in network by facilitating accurate, real-time online appointment scheduling to the optimal LifeBridge Health provider. Integrating with Cerner's practice management system, DocASAP's technology effectively matches patients and providers by automating complex scheduling intake rules, protocols and workflows that enable providers to retain control over their schedules and patients to schedule appointments in real-time. Additionally, LifeBridge Health can now attract and engage with new members through its payor partners' health plan apps and portals.
"We are thrilled to partner with a forward-thinking organization like LifeBridge Health to deliver streamlined access to healthcare for patients, providers and payors," said Puneet Maheshwari, co-founder and CEO of DocASAP. "From patient-provider matching, online appointment scheduling and staff-facilitated care coordination, healthcare organizations across the U.S. can now achieve clinical and operational goals related to access – creating a better patient and health plan member experience for all."
