## **A Win for Hospitals, ASCs, Physicians’ Practices, Health Insurers, Medical Device & Pharma**

Patient engagement technology is a win for hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, physicians’ practices, health insurers, medical device and pharmaceuticals companies and other healthcare organizations attempting to:

- Rebound from the financial consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic
- Restore deferred or lost revenue for cancelled or delayed procedures
- Offer more virtual care
- Improve reputation, patient satisfaction and HCAHPS scores
- Avoid costly penalties for hospital readmissions
- Attract new patients

## **A Win for Patients**

It is also a win for patients moving through episodes of care for conditions such as:

- Pregnancy
