Referral Management & Loop Closure for Urology Practice Managers with athenahealth
Run referral management & loop closure on autopilot inside athenahealth.
The Problem
Incoming Urology referrals sit in fax queues and athenahealth work lists, and outgoing referrals die without loop closure — both cost the practice revenue and clinical quality.
What We Build in athenahealth
AI triages incoming referrals by acuity, schedules them into open slots in athenahealth, and chases outgoing referral loop closure with consulting providers — no referral gets lost. Purpose-built for teams running athenahealth — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.
