Curve’s health information exchange, telemedicine & predictive analytics platform facilitate frictionless patient care between hospital systems + surrounding post-acute facilities, resulting in higher quality care + smarter billing.

Curve’s health information exchange and telemedicine platform facilitate frictionless patient care between hospital systems + surrounding post-acute facilities, resulting in higher quality care + smarter billing. Curve Health Overview Curve Health is a mission-driven, venture-backed company creating a telemedicine bridge and dual-access information exchange between Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNF) and Hospitals. Curve Health’s mission is to avoid unnecessary ED utilization by linking hospital-based physicians with SNF patients and providers and facilitating frictionless care in place before, during and after acute events. Building on the efficacy and expertise of Call9, Curve has created a next-gen telemedicine platform with four key pillars: • CONNECT: A next-gen telemedicine platform that allows hospital physicians to treat SNF patients in place, even at higher acuity levels, leveraging EMR integrations on both the SNF and Hospital side. • TRAIN: An integrated training interface designed by IDEO that builds competencies from first use and utilizes predictive pathways to guide SNF nurses during triage, asynchronous care and physician encounters. • BILL: A dynamic charting interface that uses a proprietary Master Bill algorithm to guide charting and populate billing documents to ensure all reimbursable activities are captured. • PREDICT: A customizable, Business Intelligence dashboard to deliver predictive analytics that drive higher-fidelity quality metrics, population health insights and operational efficiencies. Curve Health is deeply committed to the seamless delivery of care in place to vulnerable populations and to unlocking the potential of geographically proximate hospitals in a partnership that delivers better patient results and optimized revenue capture.

Fewer patients going to the hospital

The challenges of Covid-19 coupled with payor reimbursement trends are driving down hospital utilization.

30 Day Readmissions

The most expensive patients are coming back, draining scarce resources + driving up the cost of care

With uncertain patient volume many hospitals are furloughing or laying off clinicians, only to be understaffed during surges.
