Differentiators

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:
Twistle Delivers A Comprehensive Patient Engagement Platform: Twistle’s platform delivers much more than text messaging for patients, and has demonstrated not only decreases in no-show rates and increases in patient satisfaction, but also reductions in readmissions, length of stay, surgical site infections, and made significant impact on other outcomes. Twistle’s care plan automation and remote patient monitoring offers nuanced workflow for all service lines in the health system and can engage patients with much more than simple reminder text messages. Twistle’s content can be automatically personalized for patients to drive better patient adherence.
Differentiators vs Competitors:

Twistle’s content can be automatically personalized for patients to drive better patient adherence. Integrates with any EMR and the Internet of Things (IoT): Twistle’s current clients have extended the capabilities of the Twistle platform to a variety of EMRs ranging from large-scale systems like Cerner and Epic, to care platforms provided by Athena, Xealth, and other solutions.

Dedicated Account Team: Twistle has a dedicated team that supports our clients in optimizing their pathways, produces customized collateral, and trains users.
Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

While traditional EHRs serve a high purpose concentrating on capturing important patient information and facilitating communication of collected data between clinical staff, back office and insurers, usually in a language that is not comprehended by the patient community, ICmed instead concentrates on augmenting that data with two-way communication protocols to engage patients and their family or informal caregivers with the multiple clinicians and staff supporting them. Data is collected and shared with the EHR and among those participants with info-sharing rights, and the platform facilitates chats, virtual visits, RPM data collection, personalized patient education, and other value-besed care regimens. 

Differentiators vs Competitors:

While there are many single-point solutions focused on the delivery of clinical care, they tend to focus on one or few modalities (behavioral health, pediatrics, hypertension, etc.) or links in the care chain (onboarding, perioperative care, home care, etc.). ICmed is a flexible platform that not only can be utilized across the spectrum of both modalities and chain links, but also provides cumulative portability of the patient record to the patient and thier family or informal caregivers. This is a key necessity in the adoption of value-based care models that will require efficiency to help providers capture revenue and control costs.
