“Convenience and frictionless access not only mean a better experience for patients and members, but also create opportunities to improve patient outcomes and drive down the cost of healthcare. Payers and health systems alike are seeing enhanced access to care as a way to change how healthcare is delivered and experienced. Our patient access and engagement platform puts us at the center of this transformation,” said Maheshwari.
Fremont, CA: DocASAP, a Herndon, Va-based advanced patient access and engagement platform for health systems, health plans, and physician groups, closed a venture investment round. The funding round was led by Optum Ventures.
DocASAP plans to use the capital to fuel growth of its unique payer-provider network, which can advance its platform for matching consumers with optimal care, supporting patient access, and extending engagement channels. Its provider search and profiles, consumer-facing, point of care and access center appointment scheduling, provider data management, and care driven reminders serve to optimize access throughout the healthcare journey to reduce costs, improve outcomes, and create a better customer experience.
Accessing care has been one of healthcare’s biggest challenges over the last few years, leading to cost increase, gaps in care, and poor consumer experiences. Led by CEO Puneet Maheshwari, DocASAP’s platform facilitates and expands patient and health members’ access to care, allowing them to use online tools and mobile devices to navigate to the right care provider throughout their healthcare journey. It also enables healthcare organizations to meet the growing demand for streamlining the scheduling and creation of telemedicine virtual visits. Backed by many top health system clients, DocASAP delivered 100% growth in 2019.
