Here's How We Help AtlantiCare
Like many hospitals, AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center experienced massive disruptions as elective surgeries, including the total joint replacements they specialize in, were suspended and resources were reallocated to COVID-19 response.
Beyond the operational and financial disruption, there was a human element as well. Patients who needed surgery, and who were preparing for it both physically and emotionally, were suddenly in limbo.
AtlantiCare leveraged UbiCare's SmarteXp® digital engagement platform to communicate with more than 4000 patients to:
Even when Melanie Iannace, Musculoskeletal Service Coordinator at AtlantiCare, was temporarily re-assigned to the hospital's Incident Command Center to help distribute PPE to members of their COVID-19 response team, the automated text and email messages maintained patients' connections with AtlantiCare. Patients continued to reach out and interact as a result of the messages, and Melanie and her team continued to respond to their questions and concerns.
Now, as AtlantiCare looks to the future and the resumption of elective surgeries, they will use SmarteXp® to help patients coordinate new surgery dates and resume preparing for surgery and recovery.
