Problem Statement
Volumes Affecting Patient Communication
Healthcare providers are inundated with patient emails, leading to significant delays in response times. The sheer volume complicates the urgent categorization of patient inquiries, requiring extensive manual effort to sift through and prioritize. Additionally, updating patient records with new information from these communications is a labor-intensive process that can lead to inaccuracies and outdated information. There’s a critical need for a more efficient, automated system to manage this flow of information, ensuring that urgent needs are addressed promptly and no patient communication is overlooked, all while maintaining a personal connection with each patient.
