Differentiators

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.

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

Artera's suite of patient engagement products have been honed over 10 years in collaboration with 900 provider and federal agency customers.

Differentiators vs Competitors:

Text-enabled landlines (10-digits long code with Rich Communication Services), conversational messaging powered by Natural Language Understanding (NLU), inbound automations with 100+ pre-built workflows, flexible EHR integrations (with real-time writebacks), integrated marketplace with 50+ healthtech vendors (150M annual API calls), AI powered staff console with Co-Pilots, and end-to-end patient access support (from digital intake, billing, to online self-scheduling).
