Rick Casteel, VP of IT at University of Maryland Upper Chesapeake Health, said employee productivity was bogged down by manual processes that made it challenging to comply with patient privacy and security regulations.Īfter adopting Nintex Advanced Workflow to automate account creation, deletion and the steps in between, Casteel says, “we could ensure that we handle the whole process in a consistent fashion, minimize the risk of human error and free up IT staff for more valuable tasks.” Flywire Nintex helps healthcare providers reduce costs, save time and increase patient satisfaction by automating workflows and removing paper-based processes while remaining compliant with complex and constantly changing healthcare data regulations. The company recently raised $22 million to expand its reach across US primary-care practices. The Innovation Lab of the American Academy of Family Physicians found that Navina’s platform reduced pre-visit preparation time by up to 70% and led to a 23% increase in diagnoses found and a 38% increase in risk-adjustment scores. Using proprietary AI that integrates and consolidates data from EHRs and other sources, Navina builds an actionable “Patient Portrait” that allows physicians to review any case in minutes and complete documentation with a click. Navina’s mission is to improve clinical workflow and patient interactions and outcomes by ending the need to search through all the data in patients’ electronic health records before and after visits. Mental health, diabetes and hypertension care can be included. The service is available to anyone with an Internet connection in specific states (the number is 21 and growing rapidly). The plan covers online acute or primary care checkups and prescriptions without deductibles or copays. The founders of Antidote Health decided to build a digital health maintenance organization (HMO) geared to the millions of US citizens earning too much to be eligible for public health insurance and too little for adequate private coverage.Īntidote’s online telehealth service offers one-time remote doctor visits starting at $49 and low-cost monthly subscriptions for individuals and families. “We are proud to invest alongside so many likeminded institutions in a company that is making healthcare more accessible and affordable for all.” Antidote Health

Srulik Dvorsky, cofounder and CEO of TailorMed, told ISRAEL21c that due to substantial out-of-pocket expenses even for insured patients, “American healthcare providers face a $40 billion uncompensated care problem because of patients who cannot afford the high cost of treatment.” Srulik Dvorsky, CEO of TailorMed. But that’s what Israeli ingenuity is all about.īelow, a sampling of some of the best Israeli solutions to the American healthcare crisis. It takes a little chutzpah for residents of a tiny country thousands of miles away to tackle a mammoth challenge far away. One way is by continuing to pioneer advanced medical devices and technologies as we’ve done for decades.Ī newer approach is finding high-tech solutions to overall problems in the distribution of healthcare in the United States. In Israel, where citizens enjoy universal medical coverage and a high standard of care, entrepreneurs see an opportunity to improve the American healthcare experience.
The senior editor of Harvard Health Publishing words his grim diagnosis this way: “Is the US healthcare system expensive, complicated, dysfunctional, or broken? The simple answer is yes to all.” It’s no secret that the fragmented US healthcare system is severely ill, suffering from astronomical costs, uneven access to care, cumbersome regulations, low patient satisfaction, practitioner shortages and other grave symptoms.Īpproximately 30 million Americans have no health insurance coverage and therefore struggle to pay for medical care and medications.
