InTouch Health App Now Available in Epic App Orchard
Entry expands InTouch Heath’s existing context-aware capabilities and deepens telehealth integrations
SANTA BARBARA, CA, Sept. 12, 2019 – InTouch Health, ranked 2019 Best in KLAS for Virtual Care Platforms, announced today the entry of Solo™ by InTouch, their next-generation software platform, into Epic’s App Orchard.
Solo™ by InTouch offers providers unprecedented levels of convenience, ease of use, and mobility. The application makes it possible for providers and care teams to launch and conduct on-demand telehealth visits directly within their existing Epic workflows, including provider and patient-facing applications.
“Digital health solutions need to seamlessly integrate with a health system’s EHR platform. In the past year, we have seen many organizations abandon the video-based Epic integrated solutions on the market today due to poor performance, ” said Joseph M. DeVivo, CEO at InTouch Health.
“As a managed service provider, we proactively monitor our network to consistently maintain an industry-leading connection success rate and service availability. Integrating our video platform capabilities within Epic gives our customers streamlined workflows while leveraging the industry’s leading telehealth network purpose-built for healthcare.”
By using the Solo™ by InTouch video platform capabilities, providers will be able to:
- Leverage context-aware linking for easy implementation
- Integrate with and optimize existing EHR-based workflows
- Access video consults, patient data, scheduling capabilities, and medical imaging on a single platform
- Utilize intake capabilities to bring on-demand patients into virtual care consultations
- Collaborate with multiple providers and clinical staff within the app to coordinate care consultations in real-time
“We are excited to be a part of Epic’s App Orchard program. InTouch Health is pushing the boundaries of healthcare by deploying effective methods of delivering the highest-quality care possible, reducing administrative burnout, and creating cost-savings by leveraging existing systems,” added DeVivo. “We are committed to EHR interoperability as an extension of our platform’s core capabilities to create lasting value for our health system partners.”
