Casey Korinchock – Patient Engagement
Get Social Health takes a look at patient engagement platforms during an interview with Casey Korinchock. Casey is the Marketing Manager for Axial Exchange, a software solutions company that creates engagement platforms for hospitals. She first started working with hospitals in a private-equity backed startup in New York helping health systems improve their health care services in the home started working with Axial Exchange about a year ago.
During the course of our interview we discussed a new survey, “100 Best Hospitals for Patient Engagement” recently released that was a partnership between Becker Hospital Review and Axial that rated hospitals on their patient engagement. Unlike previous surveys, this report was based on four metrics: Hospital Re-admissions, Patient Satisfaction, Patient Education and Self-Care tools and Social Media Engagement.
