Vendor Spotlight: TriageLogic Expands Telehealth’s Reach to Help Your Employees



TriageLogic® believes no one should delay care because physicians are unavailable or the ER is too expensive. That is why earlier this year, TriageLogic launched a new product, Continuwell®, to provide telehealth services to a wider market. With Continuwell, TriageLogic tackled the big question that many organizations face: How do they keep healthcare costs down and employees healthy?

This new telehealth product was created to help businesses and organizations decrease employee healthcare expenses and reduce employee absenteeism by providing free, 24/7 access to a qualified, objective registered nurse. It also allows companies to engage employees by placing all services in one platform and send push notifications and messages.

A recent Pew Research study found that 77 percent of Americans own a smartphone. TriageLogic realizes the connection people have with their phones and their desire to be better connected with more aspects of their life.

The American Hospital Association found that:

  • 74 percent of U.S. consumers would use telehealth services.
  • 76 percent of patients prioritize access to care over the need for human interactions with their healthcare providers.
  • 70 percent of patients are comfortable communicating with their healthcare providers via text, email, or video, in lieu of seeing them in person.
  • 30 percent of patients already use computers or mobile devices to check for medical or diagnostic information.

Continuwell is a telephone healthcare service with a network of experienced registered nurses. Continuwell provides nurses on demand to evaluate employees and their family members to determine the appropriate care for their symptoms. Continuwell differentiates itself with its nurse-first model, where nurses use doctor-written protocols to evaluate callers and determine the care to resolve their symptoms.

Continuwell nurses provide the necessary care without the need of a doctor in three out of four cases, saving the cost of a telehealth doctor visit and making the system affordable for employers and employees.

The Service

Step 1: A member enters their symptoms using a mobile application (app) or website portal.

Step 2: A registered nurse calls back within minutes.

Step 3: The nurse evaluates their symptoms and helps them with the next steps.

The team at TriageLogic has spent years developing a mobile app that would be user friendly, to increase utilization, as well as customizable, to allow employers or brokers to modify content to fit their specific needs. They recognized the challenge of getting employees to download, register, and then remember the benefits available to them through their employer.

The Continuwell platform allows organizations to select the services they want to include and creates a custom mobile app for their employees, where they get access to all of their services in one place. The app even has single sign-on capability to make it even more convenient. The platform is flexible enough that services can be added or removed on demand.

You take care of your patients, but who takes care of your staff? Why not extend a confidential and independent triage service for your staff by making Continuwell part of your employee benefits package? Continuwell is always available to help your staff get back on their feet, no matter the symptom.
