Description

Product Description:
Initial Insights is the first tier offering of the NICUtrition® platform. It provides the ability for a hospital to track key performance measures across the neonatal intensive care unit in a retrospective or prospective report. With a one-time data extract from a hospital’s EMR, including (up to) 5 years of historical information around feeding, growth and diagnoses, our Initial Insights reports will show milestones with 'smart' growth charts and z-scores and an outcomes analysis for the feeding and growth data collected at the individual patient and unit levels. Additionally, with EMR integration, Initial Insights is provided to the hospital via real-time access for ongoing analytics.
About Astarte Medical:
Setting the course for better health begins at the core. As a precision-care solution provider, Astarte Medical helps neonatal care professionals improve patient outcomes in the first 1,000 days of life by leveraging the power of automated software and predictive analytics to deliver personalized nutritional care to preterm and critically-ill infants in the NICU. We are initially focused on developing digital tools designed to standardize feeding and optimize nutrition for preterm infants, particularly for those born before 34 weeks gestational age. Astarte Medical was founded in 2016, when serial entrepreneurs and venture investors partnered with a clinical scientist and other nutrition thought leaders. The company has seen 100% growth since 2019 and currently operates with $8.5M raised from top venture financing firms and 12 FTEs. NICUtrition® by Astarte Medical, is the first real-time, nutrition management support solution, designed to standardize feeding and optimize nutrition to improve outcomes specifically for preterm infants. It allows neonatology specialists, nursing professionals, dietiitans and department heads to effectively automate their health system’s feeding protocols, simplify workflows & measure compliance for more consistent quality care delivery, while leveraging predictive analytics to support data-enabled clinical decision-making for improved patient outcomes.

Client Types

Differentiators

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

EMRs were built as billing support tools and evolved into medical data repositories. Nuanced data of clinical importance can be difficult to access and currently requires dedicated technical personnel with specific skills to partner with clinical staff in a laborious approach to extract specific data. In particular, flow sheets utilized in an intensive care setting, such as the NICU, are particularly challenging to access and review in a structured format.

NICUtrition Initial Insights was built to liberate NICU feeding, growth and diagnosis data from EMRs and provide robust visualizations showing patient milestones and outcomes metrics.

Differentiators vs Competitors:

NICUtrition is fully integrated with the EMR, enabling real-time access of granular, clinical data and the ability to deliver high quality support within existing workflow. We have developed properietary tools to augment EHR integration, supporting overtaxed IT groups within hospitals to get up and running and deliver value and return on investment in months. 

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:
  • Online Scheduling – new patients can book appointments from your website without setting up an EHR patient portal account
  • Referral Management – website portal for receiving referrals, customized workflow, automated alerts when referrals need attention
  • Patient Communications – automated text/email messages sent to patients triggered at specific steps in the consult or referral journey
  • Provider Communications – automated consult and referral status updates sent to sending providers to close the loop between PCPs and specialists
  • Fax Management – manage all inbound faxes and push faxed referrals into the referral workflow, ability to split faxes into multiple documents
  • Marketing CRM – physician liaisons can document outreach and compare outreach activity with referral volume from their partners
  • Market Research – over 7 million providers pre-loaded which allows you to identify new potential referral partners in your target markets
  • Referral Analytics – comprehensive suite of analytics to report on all your referral metrics (trends, volume, leakage, service levels, outreach, etc.)

Differentiators vs Competitors:

Differentiator 1: All-In-One Platform

  • Some vendors offer patient access, referral management, e-consults or CRMs. Our cloud-based platform offers them all plus the following features.
  • Real-time analytics across the platform
  • Automated workflow and decision support tools
  • Automated feedback loop with referring providers
  • Automated patient communications via text or email
  • Integrated fax management system (port over existing fax numbers)
  • Integrated Customer/Partner Relationship Management (CRM/PRM)
  • Marketing research tools based on a directory of over 7 million providers

Differentiator 2: Rapid Integration Capabilities

  • Our integration engine allows our Integrations Team to quickly deploy system interfaces using APIs, FHIR, HL7, Direct, etc. which is important when implementing the platform for health systems, ACOs and CINs with many EHRs, data warehouses and other third-party systems across their networks.  
  • In addition, we comply with the third-party system’s specifications rather than asking the vendor to follow our requirements which streamlines the integration process and reduces cost for the client. 

Differentiator 3: All Healthcare Referrals Supported

  • The system is highly configurable and can support all healthcare referral types such as medical, specialty care, therapy, imaging, dental, behavioral health, hospice, home care, etc.  
  • The customization in the system allows clients to define their own workflows, referral forms, patient communication templates, and other settings that can be standardized across the organization.
