Indianapolis, IN — Diagnotes, Inc., a leader in secure, mobile clinical communication and care coordination, announces the launch and public availability of the Diganotes mobile patient application.
Using Diagnotes on smartphones or tablets, patients and their caregivers can communicate directly with their providers via text, voice message and real-time group video chats. Patients are given login credentials from their healthcare providers who currently use Diagnotes.
“Allowing providers to communicate with patients the same way they communicate with one another is a natural evolution of our inclusive platform,” said Dave Wortman, CEO and co-founder of Diagnotes, Inc. “Adding patients to the platform originated from clients asking for help improving communication with patients following a hospital discharge. Better communication results in smoother transitions of care in the weeks following a hospital stay, and ultimately fewer avoidable readmissions and better adherence to physician orders and medication.”
