What You Should Know:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Transcarent<\/a>, a health and care experience company that makes it easy for people to access high-quality, affordable care announced it will acquire<\/a> AI-powered virtual care platform and care business of on-demand primary care company, 98point6<\/a>.  Financial details of the acquisition were not disclosed; however, insiders expect the deal to be valued at $100M.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– As part of the acquisition, hundreds of 98point6 enterprise customers including Boeing, Kindercare and Banner|Aetna employing millions of eligible members will have access to an even wider selection of primary and behavioral health services through Transcarent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– The newly emerged 98point6 Technologies<\/a> plans to remain solely focused on licensing its software to third-party health care providers such as MultiCare Health System, the first to license the 98point6 Technology Platform within its hybrid ambulatory care platform, Indigo Health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

98point6 Technology Platform <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 98point6 Technology Platform<\/a> provides a turn-key, cloud-based solution for scaling up a virtual care operation complete with software, professional services and support from a team who built and operated a successful, nationwide virtual clinic for the past several years. The platform provides a quick and cost-effective way to create new revenue opportunities, better support the workforce, improve care and boost the bottom line. Implementation includes a client-branded app and assistance in configuring the platform.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the heart of the 98point6 Technology Platform is a web-based Clinician Console, which  encapsulates a refined set of best practices designed to help providers deliver high quality virtual care based on years of clinical experience. Built-in logic in the form of artificial intelligence (AI)<\/a> and automated practice standards guide providers to quickly make the right medical decisions or recommend in-person care when needed. This level of automation limits care variability, optimizes patient time by streamlining the intake process and reduces cognitive load on the provider to support top-of-licensure practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 98point6 Technology Platform includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– A standalone digital clinic hosted in the cloud, including AI-powered patient engagement, workflow and EHR integration, care follow-up and documentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Web-based Clinician Console<\/a> for providers to conduct visits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– An SDK to create a fully-branded patient experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Training and development for clinicians and staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Engagement marketing support to activate new users and drive utilization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Workforce management guidance to help define hybrid staffing and scheduling plans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
