This data is unique since the hospitals themselves don’t have this information (e.g. if you are admitted at UCSF Medical Center and readmitted at St. Mary's Medical Center , Saint Francis Memorial Hospital , California Pacific Medical Center - Davies Campus , Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital & Trauma Center & John Muir Medical Center - Walnut Creek Campus , UCSF Medical Center won’t have that information).
Hospitals can use this data to better understand the full patient journey and provide better care. Dexur provides this data to hospitals through Dexur Pro.
