PatientPing solves a key problem in healthcare - locating patients as they navigate through the system. Until now, hospitals, doctors, clinics, nursing homes and other providers don't know where their patients come from before they are admitted and where they go once discharged. This presents lost revenue and uncoordinated care problems for providers. PatientPing solves this by aggregating simple, easily integrated data feeds among all providers in a network then aggregates the data and provides it back to them in an insightful format that helps them manage their networks better.
