New products that facilitate follow-up communication once patients return home are another recent innovation. Automated care plans help providers and patients stay connected regarding critical follow-up after each care episode. And automated patient-reported outcome surveys gauge patient health in the channel that’s best for them: online, text, or automated phone surveys.
While many of these innovations were developed in direct response to pandemic-related challenges, they also coincide with an important consumer trend: the desire for self-service and digital options. Data overwhelmingly prove that patients expect healthcare experiences to be as easy and seamless as their other consumer experiences.
