Interview with Relatient CEO Jeff Gartland
What if scheduling a doctor's appointment was as easy as booking a table at your favorite restaurant? Join for an enlightening discussion with Jeff Gartland, CEO of Relatient, as we unlock the complexities of patient scheduling in healthcare. Jeff shares his unique perspective, drawing from a childhood influenced by behavioral psychologists and a career spanning top healthcare technology firms like McKesson, Ciox, and Elevance.
Together, we explore how patient scheduling is much more than a tech challenge; it's about transforming human interactions in healthcare. From understanding the nuances between "new" and "existing" patients to creating a seamless, consumer-centric referral system, Jeff offers invaluable insights into reshaping the way we engage with medical practices.
Discover how cutting-edge technology can bridge the gap in appointment scheduling while boosting patient access and satisfaction. Jeff explains the paradox of how long waits for appointments can coexist with underutilized clinical time, offering solutions that hinge on sophisticated scheduling systems and automated waitlists.
We discuss the significance of a portal-free experience that simplifies the referral process and enhances convenience for patients. Whether it’s aligning scheduling rules to meet patient demand or ensuring operational precision without sacrificing accessibility, this episode provides a roadmap to boost patient engagement for a better healthcare experience.
