As the complexity of patients requiring hospital care increases, the need for dedicated clinicians to oversee their management can be addressed by Avel eCare hospitalist services. On call 24/7, Avel board-certified hospitalists and registered nurses are available to assist local care teams with the management of complex medical and surgical patients who are 18 years and older.

From evaluating changes in health status and improving efficiency and timeliness of care to increasing admissions and reducing burnout among staff, Avel eCare Hospitalist can be configured to suit needs of a wide array of hospitals and health systems.

Since the launch of Avel eCare Hospitalist in 2017, Avel has:

• Reduced the number of times that local providers had to come in while on call or working in the clinic by 90 percent
• Averaged less than 10 minutes in wait time for patients

Wholistics Chatbot is a text-based patient engagement and referral optimization solution focused on evidence-based guidance and support for higher engagement and better disease management and prevention outcomes. Our solution is focused on 4 pillars:

ENGAGE: Texting optimizes access – even in underserved populations, smart phones are more prevalent than laptops and other devices

EDUCATE: Sharing evidence-based content for managing chronic conditions across all dimensions of health (nutrition, mental health, physical movement, exercise) with links to recipes, tips, third party content, and direct dialing to clinical care/call center.

MOTIVATE: Self-reported baselines, progress, challenges and milestones can be gathered by friendly, easy-to-use chat-based surveys

SUPPORT: Providing actionable recommendations with links to patient assistance and resources (prescription savings, food pantry, free clinic, transportation, etc.)

Partner sites receive a mobile cart equipped with everything needed for an Avel eCare Hospitalist virtual visit. The cart and its accompanying technology were intentionally designed to be convenient, user-friendly and secure so that local care teams can easily transfer it from room to room.

1. The Avel team implements secure, interactive, high-definition video and audio equipment and software into the facility and trains staff
2. When providers need hospitalist assistance, they simply call to connect 24/7/365 with our team, who respond immediately from our virtual hospital hub
3. Avel staff clarifies what level of support is being requested and can help with as much or as little as needed

Although the Avel team becomes part of the local medical staff, credentialed and privileged to direct patient care, they don’t replace the bedside team. Instead, Avel collaborates with and supplements the team in order to provide the best possible care for patients
