It’s ABOUT Acute Patients

Move acute patients into and across your health system with technology to improve transfer speed, ease, and consistency.

Acute patient transfers

Open the front door to acute care through a referral channel — meaning referrals from physicians, other health systems, community and rural hospitals, post-acute facilities, and physician practices — making it so easy that you become the first call for acute transfer needs and ultimately drive more loyalty.

 

We standardize patient transition logistics to the optimal care setting, load balancing, and distributing demand across service lines and facilities, and achieve the right patient mix. Additionally, ABOUT facilitates transportation coordination into your health system to efficiently transition patients to the best setting of care.

Giving you the controls

Streamlined workflows & user experience

Go from hours to minutes

Every patient journey is different. But they all have something in common. A human being who needs the right care without delay. Right now, a single patient transfer can take up to six hours – but that’s about to change. 

  

ABOUT solutions empower health systems to operate as one connected network of care – efficiently moving patients into and out of acute care settings. Through our proven process, software suite, and clinical expertise, we help you orchestrate care to drive operational efficiencies and improve patient outcomes. 

 

Together, we can connect those in need to those who heal, faster. 

Interoperable with existing systems

ABOUT gives health systems the ability to leverage and augment existing data and systems—including multiple EHRs—helping health systems get the most out of their current IT investments.

 

The ABOUT Orchestration Engine Integration Hub connects with agnostic interfaces and integrations, including EHRs, multiple, disparate EHRs, call recording, computer aided dispatch systems, and other HIT systems.
