These are some of our answers to the most frequently asked questions. If you need more information, do not hesitate to contact us.

The care coordination platform helps your clinic with automated patient education, questionnaire/form collection, and patient progress tracking and monitoring.

  • The patient App allows healthcare professionals to provide their patients with the right information at the right time. The App informs and empowers patients about the next steps in their care and engages them through interactive push notifications.

  • With the platform, healthcare professionals have real-time visibility of patients’ activities through an interactive dashboard. The Dashboard tracks and generates reports from patient data, patient outcomes (PROMs), and experience questionnaires (PREMs).


The Care Coordination Platform significantly reduces administrative work, patient no-shows, and cancellations and reduces the cost of care by reducing appointments and printing and posting letters. 

Buddy Healthcare’s care coordination platform can support your surgery or other medical specialty clinics in many ways, such as:

  • Automating patient communication and care coordination through automated patient education and reminders;
  • Reducing care personnel’s administrative workload, such as appointments, phone calls and paperwork;
  • Improving identification of late cancellations and DNAs/no-shows;
  • Enabling faster scheduling and preparation of replacement patients;
  • Automating patient questionnaires and data collection such as electronic pre-operative assessments or patient-reported outcomes and experiences;
  • Enabling remote patient monitoring and enhancing recovery after surgery (ERAS);
  • Providing reports of the collected patient data to hospital management.

We can quickly provide you with a quote, once we have had a first online discussion.In order to be able to provide you with the most accurate pricing, we would need to know the following: 

  • What kind of care pathways are you planning on implementing;
  • How big is your clinic and what is the current patient flow;
  • How many different language versions would you like to have etc.

Management staff in hospitals where the care coordination platform has been introduced have reported positive experiences in terms of economic impact, staff management, and patient care.
The list of benefits highlighted by management teams includes:

  • Reductions of administrative workloads due to the lowered need for phone calls, which are largely replaced by the in-app messaging service and the platform’s automated collection of patient questionnaires and forms;

  • Cost reduction arising from the lowered administrative burden and the improved ability to identify no-shows and cancellations earlier, and the ability to reschedule and prepare new patients for procedures which have been cancelled at short notice;

  • Consistency across the entire care pathway is improved and upheld by the use of the app to both communicate with patients and store data – this, in turn, allows management to evaluate patient-reported outcomes and experiences through a consistent channel of information;

  • The platform allows management teams to optimise resource planning and allocation and paves the way for further automation of processes going forward;

  • The platform collects structured data on patients’ care pathways and provides reports to hospital management for analysing care pathways and patient feedback;

  • Marketing your hospital. Hospitals can make their services more attractive to their patients by improving digital patient services and offering better experiences. 

Buddy Healthcare’s Platform is available in multiple languages, such as Danish, Dutch, English,  Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazilian), Russian, Spanish and Swedish.

If you need additional languages, just contact us and let’s discuss the implementation.

This is the reason why you should start using Buddy Healthcare’s Platform. In many medical specialities, the number of patients is growing while care teams are short-staffed.


The platform is easy-to-use, and our Customer Success team will ensure that getting started goes smoothly and quickly for your care team and your patients. It’s part of our package!

  • Wound care information
  • Rehabilitation exercises
  • Pain meters
  • In-app questionnaires (PROMs, PREMs, QoL)
  • Patients can contact care teams through a two-way secure messaging feature and, for example, send photos of their surgical wounds or important PDF documents
  • Timely automated reminders and push notifications ensure that your patients get the right information at the right time and will be properly prepared;
  • Patients can read and submit care-related education, tasks and questionnaires at their own pace in the patient app;
  • All care-related information, including details on how to contact the clinic, are in one location and available 24/7;
  • Patients can contact care teams through a two-way secure messaging feature and, for example, send photos of their surgical wounds or receive important PDF documents.
  • Someone can act on behalf of the patient by also downloading the App. This feature is useful, for example, when the patient is a child or an elderly person.

  • Yes. All patient actions are tracked and logged (date and time), and those are visible in the dashboard. The dashboard also shows when the patient last was active/online in the app.
    The remote patient monitoring dashboard provides an at-a-glance overview of patients’ activities and care progress.
    During the deployment phase, we identify, together with the care team, which deviations are going to trigger attention notifications in the Dashboard.

    The dashboard supports care personnel in identifying patients’ eligibility for surgery and helps detect potential DNAs/no-shows and cancellations.

  • But, if a patient has difficulties or is declining engagement in his/her care pathway, the dashboard shows a red “attention” notification.

  • Then, if patients are progressing normally in the care path, the platform shows a green “all good” status next to the patient name;
  • Yes, of course! The platform enables providers to configure their own automation rules, features and timers to customise the best possible automated care coordination process. Our customer success team helps you along the way and manages the technical components of designing your pathway.

  • With the Platform, you can:

    • Transform your elective care waiting lists into preparation lists. Read more from our blog
    • Digitise and automate your care protocols (patients’ care pathways);
    • Collect forms and questionnaires such as pre-operative assessments and electronic patient-reported outcome and experience measures;
    • You can generate reports from patient data to support your analyses;
    • You can conduct clinical studies.
  • Yes, any PROMs can be collected through the app and their results calculated.
    We have already digitised more than 100 Quality of Life,  Patient-reported outcomes and experience measure questionnaires. You can see them here.  
    Additional questionnaires can easily be added, and you can decide with which frequency and for how long questionnaires will be collected.
