HealthEfficient to Enhance Patient Communication through Preferred Partnership with CareMessage

Albany, NY — June 1, 2022

HealthEfficient and CareMessage have agreed on a partnership to leverage patient communication technology to improve health outcomes and drive patient engagement — goals that are central to both of these not-for-profit, mission-driven organizations.

HealthEfficient helps member community health centers and other “safety net” healthcare providers to improve clinical and operational performance by using health information technology, collaborative efforts, and targeted support. HealthEfficient’s members and clients deliver efficient, data-driven, evidence-based care to vulnerable populations nationwide.

CareMessage is the leading patient activation and communication platform for safety-net healthcare organizations, helping them to meet goals of enhancing patient communication, improving operational workflows and ultimately improving health outcomes. HealthEfficient recognized the opportunity to support the CareMessage platform for its members in an effort to advance the work the members are doing to deliver efficient, data-driven, evidence-based care.

“HealthEfficient and CareMessage share a great deal in terms of our mission and desire to use technology to directly improve health outcomes for underserved patients. We are proud to partner with HealthEfficient to help enhance patient communication for their members,” said Vineet Singal, the CEO and co-founder of CareMessage.

“The community health centers we work with will be able to better reach and serve their patients using CareMessage offerings,” said Alan Mitchell, HealthEfficient’s Executive Director.

In the U.S., safety-net providers like the community health centers who are members of HealthEfficient serve 27.5 million uninsured individuals and 72.4 million individuals on Medicaid. The use of technology like the CareMessage platform helps safety-net organizations be more efficient with their time and increase the quality of care and health outcomes for their patients.
