"I love the fact that you can do a 1-on-1 chat with either a patient or a provider."
"Backline facilitated swifter responses and enhanced provider-to-nurse communication."
"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.”
“Backline improves care coordination between providers and care managers who provide care to the same patient.”
“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.”
“If a doctor needs to be notified, pharmacists use Backline, which results in having the right antibiotic administered to the patient sooner.”
"We integrated our nurse call system with Backline for seamless staff assignments and caregiver notifications."
"We initially looked at [Backline by DrFirst] for its secure texting capabilities, but what we discovered was a mobile communication system that was infinitely customizable and could solve one of our biggest challenges: remote documentation and charge capture.”
"[Our prior process] was inconvenient, time-consuming and costly. The Diagnotes solution was simple, intuitive and, best of all, HIPAA-compliant.”
"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.”
“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.”
"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."
"With Backline, we improved communication across departments."
"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."
"Using Backline, we can now communicate directly, in real time, with providers at any of the health system’s 30 facilities. Providers can easily collaborate during every stage of the patient journey, from intake and treatment through release."
