The solution will provide all stakeholders visibility into patient care and ensure active participation from patients in their own care.
WellSky chief clinical officer Tim Ashe said: “Patient engagement technology has historically focused on completing tasks related to a care episode, such as scheduling an appointment, completing an intake form, or viewing a lab result.
“That paradigm must shift toward the person, with a focus on how to best guide them through the care journey while surveying and managing their condition virtually.
“The innovation WellSky has developed to bring this strategy to life will be of great value to our clients, their care team members, and their patients.”
