Referral intake

Agents read faxed and portal referrals, check insurance and find what is missing. Your patient access team works one board from the first page to the scheduled visit.

The handoff

Give every referral a clear next step.

Before: the work is in the inbox.

The access team opens each fax, copies the details and works out what is missing. The next person has to read it again to know where it stands.

After: the work has an owner.

Agents read the pages and check for missing information. The board shows the follow-up, its owner and the source, so staff can move the referral forward.

Questions

What people ask about referral intake.

Can we add a column for our own intake process?

Yes. Describe the change to the Assistant. It can change your workflows and apps, and every change is shown for your approval.

Can staff check what was read from a referral?

Yes. Extracted values are cited to their pages. Review queues can put each value beside its source passage so a person can approve or edit it.

Can you set up the board for our team?

Yes. We can map your process with you, build the workflows and the app, and hand your team something ready to use.

Is our data used to train models?

No. Your documents and results are never used to train a model, and a data processing addendum backs that.

Can it run in our own environment?

Yes. Strive runs in our cloud, or in your own VPC on AWS, Google Cloud or Oracle Cloud, or on your own Kubernetes cluster.

Which document-heavy job would you hand over first?

Bring one process you want to improve and the information behind it. We build the first version with you in the session, so the first thing you see is your own work, running.
