Becker's Webinar: DME ePrescribe workflow efficiencies with Parachute

We had an engaging roundtable conversation with healthcare leaders from Encompass Health, St. Luke's University Health Network, and UCLA Health who made the transition to ePrescribing on the Parachute Platform, and excellent questions from the audience!

55% of webinar attendees shared that it takes a day or more to gather DME order documentation at their facility

 

Confirming what Parachute Health sees at facilities across the country, over half of the audience revealed in a poll that it takes a day or more to gather documentation for a patient's DME order. Numerous challenges underlie this stat, contributing to discharge delays, staff burnout, losses due to DME given without qualifying documentation, and preventable readmissions if the DME did not arrive on time.

Many facilities are choosing DME ePrescribing on the Parachute Health platform as the solution — over 54,000 Clinical Facilities to date and growing! With Parachute Health, it takes just 3 minutes to create a clean, complete order, with no follow-ups required. 

3 min is the median time to order on the Parachute Platform!

It's our 5 year anniversary on Parachute... Growing like wildfire everywhere in the country!" Dina Walker, National Director of Case Management, Encompass Health
