The challenge
Fragmented systems compromise care quality and patient trust
A patient schedules an appointment through the online portal, but the reminder message goes to an outdated phone number because someone updated their contact in the billing system but not the scheduling platform. The primary care physician refers them to a specialist, who has no visibility into previous conversations about treatment preferences or social determinants of health documented during the initial visit. Care coordinators send follow-up instructions via one messaging platform while the pharmacy uses a different system for refill reminders, overwhelming patients with disconnected notifications. When a patient updates their insurance or emergency contact, the change takes days to propagate across departments, creating gaps that delay care and erode confidence.
