Men’s Health Awareness Month: Key Issues, and How Nurse Triage Can Help
June is Men’s Health Awareness Month, and an excellent time to encourage men to take charge of their own physical and mental well-being. Despite numerous public health campaigns, men are less likely than women to seek medical attention, which can delay diagnoses and lead to worse health outcomes. Providers and healthcare call centers play an important role in closing this care gap by helping them
Why Nurse Triage Is Essential for Patient Safety
Patient safety is a top concern for providers, but they aren’t always available when patients need them. How often do you find that patients experience after-hours health concerns or urgent needs that your practice’s call center simply can’t address? Even daytime hours can become overwhelming if you don’t have enough staff to handle call volume. Nurse triage fills this gap, offering registered nurses who can
Maximize Practice ROI With MedMessage Automate
One area where you can maximize practice ROI is the same as where patient symptoms often go unreported — during medical message intake. Here’s why: while nonclinical operators are invaluable for their ability to greet and address the needs of your patients, the reality is that they aren’t trained on how to identify symptoms that could indicate larger health concerns. If you want to save
Does Telehealth Reduce Healthcare Costs? Exploring the Debate
Telehealth has transformed how many patients now access care, offering convenience and flexibility that traditional appointments may lack. But there’s one question that tends to come up often during policy and financial debates: does telehealth reduce healthcare costs — or is it ultimately more expensive to maintain? Critics of telehealth argue that easier access leads to higher utilization and expenses, while advocates believe virtual care
Celebrating National Nurses Week 2025: Honoring Nurses and TriageLogic’s Commitment to Support

Better Patient Outcomes: How a Turnkey RPM Service Benefits Doctors
How many of your patients don’t follow their treatment plans? If it’s reflective of the industry, it could be as high as 40-50%, including those suffering from chronic disease. Nonadherence is estimated to cause “at least 100,000 preventable deaths and $100 billion in preventable medical costs per year.” That’s why, when we talk about remote patient monitoring, we highlight how important a program can be

Implementing Medical Answering Services: Best Practices
High patient volumes, increased administrative tasks, and the need for timely responses have all put pressure on today’s medical practices. Medical answering services — or, more specifically, the nonclinical operators who answer patient calls and man front desks — bear the brunt of these challenges, which can often lead to poor communication and inaccurate medical message intake. These services are vital to the success of
Integrating Remote Patient Monitoring With EHR Systems
Chronic care management can be difficult for two key reasons: first, the inability to maintain accurate data on patient health in between visits; second, having systems that fail to share data for continuity of care. Are you aware that remote patient monitoring (RPM) can alleviate both? Let’s explore how to improve patient monitoring with EHR systems so that your patients experience better health outcomes. https://youtu.be/XyWGp0j84wc
Leveraging AI in Triage Software for Better Performance

Let’s
Enhancing Patient Satisfaction With Efficient Call Handling
At a time when pretty much everyone has a cell phone, efficient call handling is a foundational component of medical care. When patients call hospitals or medical facilities, they expect immediate assistance, whether it’s about scheduling an appointment, asking for symptom advice, or handling urgent concerns. Hospital administrators are increasingly recognizing the significance of digital communication systems that can help their teams address patient needs
