Michael Dowling, President and CEO of Northwell Health, and also a keynote at the UCSF Digital Health Awards event stated: “Our partnership with digital health companies such as Conversa proved invaluable. One of those health organizations is Northwell Health, which has been at the epicenter of the COVID-19 response, having cared for 84,000 COVID-19 patients, more than any health system in the country. Health organizations and employers are using Conversa to perform symptom checking and triage, provide check-ins with quarantined patients, deliver lab results and screen employees, patients and visitors. Conversa was one of the first digital health companies to respond in March with a suite of COVID-19 Virtual Care Solutions, helping hospitals increase care delivery capacity by automating the outreach to and monitoring of vulnerable patient and employee populations. The UCSF Digital Awards event also recognized Conversa as a quarter-finalist in the COVID-19 Mitigating Solution category. By automating remote management of vulnerable populations with Conversa, health systems are able to significantly cut the cost of patient calls, reduce hospital readmissions, increase adherence to treatment plans, and reduce unnecessary no-shows and cancellations of important procedures. Conversa’s Automated Virtual Care and Triage™ platform enables health systems to remotely engage, monitor and manage patients and employees more effectively and efficiently than ever before-for chronic care, acute discharge, perioperative, oncology, OBGYN, prevention and wellness, and more. Hundreds of hospitals rely on Conversa, including prominent health systems such as Northwell Health, UCSF Health, UNC Health, University Hospitals, Prisma Health, SCL Health and others.

“Conversa’s remote diagnostics and monitoring is a key part of this transformational shift which leverages virtual care anytime, anywhere, and does it at lower costs with more convenience, earlier diagnostics, more personalized care and better outcomes.” Daniel Kraft, Chair for Medicine at Singularity University and Founder & Chair of Exponential Medicine. “Companies like Conversa are moving to actualize the shift to continuous, connected, proactive, contextualized, data- and insight-driven healthcare outside the traditional four walls of the hospital,” said presenting category judge Dr. Conversa is a recognized leader in virtual care and automated remote patient management.
