31 Backline by DrFirst Testimonials

“Integrating [Backline by DrFirst] for our call center communications did more than improve response time and minimize compliance risk. It streamlined clinical workflow and improved collaboration during every stage of patient care.”

"[Our prior process] was inconvenient, time-consuming and costly. The Diagnotes solution was simple, intuitive and, best of all, HIPAA-compliant.”

"A large portion of our outpatient population is indigent. Backline has been paramount in helping patients stay on a treatment plan and maintain visits with their providers using Telehealth. Without the use of Backline, many patients wouldn’t be able to attend appointments due to not having transportation."

"Not only does Diagnotes expedite communication, but it does so securely. This allows us to focus on our patients and not waste valuable patient-care time tracking down our colleagues for information and consults.”

“For paramedics, every second is crucial. With Backline®, our paramedics can safely and securely share data and medical information with our hospital healthcare team. It helps them deliver faster, safer care for our patients upon arrival.”

"Backline helped increase provider-to-nurse communication and enable quicker responses."

“My staff has not had a device make their lives easier in the 6 years I have been here, until now. With Backline, order notification has been very timely and very efficient. The workflow is just so much better. It saves steps and it saves time. It is so easy, and everyone was able to pick up the workflow within 1 day. It was exactly what we envisioned.”

“Being able to get instant access to patients’ medication history when we need it and then being able to share this and other information with our pharmacist and care team for telehealth and collaboration has been a game-changer for our MICH program. Often, patients can’t communicate the full information about their medications, which is vital information during health visits. We are very proud to offer these services through Backline by DrFirst, which are available at no cost to the county for two years, thanks to a grant by the State of Maryland.”

"Backline has improved the nature of our care visits and increased our efficiency exponentially. Before Backline, our nurses could feasibly see 10 patients in a day. Now, we see 20 patients a day. That’s incredible. In terms of crisis intervention and medication turnaround, we’ve cut days out of the process of getting a child seen by a specialist or changing a medication order. Some conversations come up suddenly and need to happen quickly to put the care plan to work for the best possible outcome for that child. Backline enables better communication in every way that communication happens, from quick conversations to in-depth care team planning sessions to electronic document sharing and signing. We never have to worry about safety or HIPAA compliance, which is great. Backline makes that mountain before us so much easier to climb."

“It has been nice to connect with a therapist inside of the hospital instead of spending 30 minutes tracking them down. I have confirmation that someone has seen my message about the patient.”

“The Diagnotes platform will allow us to communicate as other 21st century businesses do in a compliant and trackable manner.”

"Backline facilitated swifter responses and enhanced provider-to-nurse communication."

“Using Diagnotes in the ED for handling hospitalist consult requests was an instant hit. Anyone who wasn't using it was asking when they could start. We love how much easier it is to connect with each other, especially when we're treating a patient with a critically urgent issue.”

"The [Backline by DrFirst] mobile communication system identifies important transitions of care—including admission, discharge and transfer events—for all Eskenazi Health Center Healthy Aging Brain Center patients and goes into action to immediately alert the assigned care coordinator.”

"Our goal is to expand the use of Backline to more patients and physicians to make [virtual] post-op follow-ups easier for everyone and to improve surgical outcomes."
