What is Bright.md?

Bright.md is a complete, white-labeled solution for health systems to empower their patient population with self-service online tools that guides them to the optimal type of care based on their concern, and when determined appropriate, take a thorough symptom assessment to receive a diagnosis and treatment plan from their own providers.

Great patient and provider satisfaction

When I was looking at Bright.md, there just wasn’t any company out there doing what they were. They are evidence-based, and a leader in asynchronous care. They have great patient and provider satisfaction because of the thoroughness and consistency of their clinical interviews, and the provider time required to deliver care to patients for low-acuity conditions was lower than anything we were doing internally.

Effective but needs some feature development; Great partners

Our engagement with BrightMD began in the first quarter of last year, primarily for asynchronous telehealth and low acuity care navigation. The care navigation tool was a standout - it generates substantial business and is prominently featured on our platforms.

While we faced some challenges with the asynchronous telehealth, we found it hard to pinpoint whether the difficulties stemmed from the vendor or the fact our demographics aren't particularly inclined to non-video telehealth services. There were certain critical features missing, such as two-way communication post-interview and progress indicators during the interview process. These are areas that competitors cover well.

BrightMD's customer service, on the other hand, is outstanding. They are receptive to feedback, are willing to improve their features, and have shown impressive openness during contract renewals. Their business partnership has been commendable. As we renew our contract, we're keen to see how they address the current performance issues and improve their product's features.
