What is at the core of Get Well's work?
|
As the leader in patient engagement, Get Well has helped healthcare organizations differentiate themselves in meaningful and measurable ways for more than 20 years. We offer a uniquely personal experience based upon a very straightforward operating standard: An informed, involved patient leads to better outcomes. With the largest portfolio of patient engagement solutions in the market, Get Well reaches 950+ client sites and handles more than 50 million patient interactions per year. Our flexible approach to patient engagement enables organizations to tailor the method and amount of communication to each individual patient. This ensures patients feel connected, prepared, and informed at every step of their health journey. |

What are some current projects and/or innovative initiatives you are working on?
Get Well is leading the charge to address maternal health inequities. Our Maternal Health and Equity program, which has been deployed with some of the largest healthcare systems in the country, seeks to close the gap in maternal health outcomes using innovative digital technology. In order to reduce barriers to access for all birthing people, the program operates around three principles: broad engagement (via SMS text messaging — the communication channel accessible to the greatest number of people), a focus on empathy and empathetic language, and a mobile-first approach.
CommonSpirit Health leveraged our Maternal Health and Equity program and saw a 37% decrease in preterm births and 1.8 day shorter length of stay since implementing this program, which features a text-based patient navigation solution that pairs virtual care guides with patients for personalized care and support.
