$15M

saved from post-discharge follow-up

"Preventing patient readmissions is what's important to us, and we had just under $15M in savings with doing these post-discharge follow-up calls." — Ben Becker, DNP, RN, NEA-BC, Director, Enterprise Care Management

Capabilities

A complete toolkit to prevent avoidable readmissions

Post-Discharge Outreach

Automated voice and text check-ins within 48 hours of discharge surface concerns before they escalate into emergency visits.

High-Risk Identification

AI-powered models identify patients at highest risk of readmission so care teams can target interventions where they matter most.

Medication Adherence

Automated check-ins confirm patients are taking prescribed medications and can access refills — one of the most common drivers of avoidable readmission.

Care Transitions

Structured follow-up verifies patients understand their discharge plan, have scheduled follow-up appointments, and know which symptoms to watch for.

Real-Time Escalation

Concerning patient responses trigger instant alerts to care coordinators, enabling same-day intervention before a readmission occurs.

Readmission Analytics

Track readmission rates by diagnosis, unit, and payer alongside outreach engagement data to continuously refine your prevention strategy.

Proven intelligence

Prioritize readmission risk with real post-discharge context

CipherHealth AI draws from structured follow-up responses, engagement history, care-transition workflows, and resolved issue patterns to help teams see which patients need attention before a concern becomes a return visit.

Bridge the Gap Between Hospital and Home

Structured transitional care workflows verify that patients attend follow-up appointments, fill prescriptions, and recognize red-flag symptoms — closing the gaps that lead to avoidable readmissions.
