Care Coordination

Products & Platforms

At Point of Care and During Transitions of Care

Collaborative communication technologies such as HIPAA compliant texting can have a substantial impact on healthcare, dramatically improving speed, safety, precision and efficiency. The widespread use of smartphones makes communication possible practically anywhere, anytime. Physician use of mobile devices is widespread and growing rapidly. Nearly 90% of American health care workers use their personal phone at work, and 45% of clinicians already use mobile apps to collect data at bedside.

DrFirst’s Akario communication and collaboration tools, specifically designed for use in healthcare environments, help providers achieve better care coordination, better health outcomes, better transitions of care and lower hospital readmissions. Products in the Akario Secure Exchange Suite also meet all of HIPAA’s security standards, guarding patients, caregivers and medical facilities against unintended disclosure of protected health information.
