Accurate data simplifies referral management to address outcome gaps
October 9, 2023, MADISON, Wis. – Veda, a health technology provider specializing in accurate, curated provider data, is introducing new features to support healthcare provider organizations making specialty referrals. In an effort to get patients the care they need and help improve outcomes, Veda’s solutions remove barriers for both referring providers and patients.
In one survey 1, as many as one-third of patients don’t follow through on a referral to a specialist from their primary care provider. Provider groups who can deliver accurate referrals can improve the chances of a patient pursuing specialty care.
1. Becker’s Payer Issues: Only two out of every three patients actually receive the care that they need when a referral is made.
“With our accurate provider data and human-in-the-loop technology, we can positively impact the legions of patients who are not accessing necessary specialty care,” said Meghan Gaffney, CEO and co-founder of Veda. “In addition, our technology can help capture potential lost revenue for provider organizations by managing referral leakage to providers outside of the organization.”
Health plans across the country currently benefit from Veda’s suite of AI-powered products. With this expansion, Veda is delivering solutions to health systems and provider groups for the first time with the product Vectyr.
