AdviNOW Medical recognized as a Sample Vendor in the 2022 Gartner® Hype Cycle™ for Digital Care Delivery Including Virtual Care

AdviNOW MEdical | Automating Helathcare with AI | Logo

Phoenix, AZ July 28, 2022 – AdviNOW Medical, a leading provider of Artificial Intelligence driven Digital Clinical Encounter solutions, announced that it has been identified as a Sample Vendor in the Gartner Hype Cycle for Digital Care Delivery Including Virtual Care, 2022. AdviNOW Medical was named in the Digital Clinical Encounters category.” [1]

 

AdviNOW Medical removes friction points between the patient, clinic, payer and

provider. Artificial intelligence (AI) scribing is used to reduce the administrative burden of the provider and free them from the burdens of data collection and EHR documentation. The AdviNOW System includes the Digital Front Door, Provider Scribe,

Coding Assist, Remote Patient Monitoring and Follow-up. The common platform is used for all types of visits (in-person or virtually by video or async messaging) with the patient.

 

“AdviNOW is the only company that eliminates the administrative burden of the encounter clinically.  We are delighted that Gartner recognized AdviNOW Medical as a Sample Vendor in this Hype Cycle for Digital Care Delivery Including Virtual Care,” said James Bates, Chief Executive Office and Founder of AdviNOW Medical. “We believe this is a testament to our ability to be the first automated healthcare platform with a complete patient-provider end to end solution.”

 

According to Gartner, “Digital clinical encounters are semiautomated patient interactions that include the use of clinical protocols, algorithms, and artificial intelligence (AI) to facilitate history taking, triage, diagnosis, prescribing and documentation. The encounter leverages the latest evidence-based clinical knowledge to reduce clinicians’ direct involvement prior to their review of the captured and analyzed content for clinical oversight and action.”

Clinics that use AdviNOW nearly double patient throughput while increasing patient satisfaction and provider burnout declines. We are excited to continue to lead the vision of the healthcare revolution.

 

In addition, Gartner states that “Epidemiological factors (such as an aging population and increasing burden of chronic disease), coupled with clinician shortages and burnout, have made access to primary and specialist care a major challenge currently facing the healthcare industry. Digital clinical encounters help address these issues by improving clinician efficiency through the automation of certain steps in the care delivery process.”
