COVID-19 Update – TouchPointCare’s Partners Providing Services for State and Local Officials

COVID -19 – TouchPointCare’s partners are reaching out to local and state officials to offer support and services in lieu of COVID-19 concerns. As an example, local residents can call into a custom build toll free inbound IVR number to access a COVID-19 “hotline” telephonic survey or click on a link like the one below, which can easily be added to a webpage to access a COVID-19 risk assessment survey. https://www.touchpointcare.net/survey/daa/16551

To help with your message, here are some key features:

  • Survey itself is configurable and can be customized in minutes
  • Alerts can be set on any question
  • A question can be set up that allows this person to be scheduled for a “live call back” which would automatically be set up for a secure video consult
  • This survey is done as a “named” survey which creates a participant record that the system can then follow up with to check up on them via sms or IVR
  • This survey example is online but could be converted to an automated call in any language
  • Reports are both participant specific but also aggregated for statistical review
  • In addition, once people are identified as “Patients under Investigation” TPC can help with patient monitoring using traditional RPM strategies

The interest in having patients capture and report on their own health has grown considerably with providers looking for ways to capitalize on this growth and find opportunities to use the data patients are generating.

The research identifies best practices, gaps, and opportunities for progress in the capture, use and sharing of PGHD.   In addition, (ONC) has also created a much shorter PRACTICAL GUIDE to offer tips, suggestions and instructions.
