Welcome back to Conversations with Orbita. In episode nine, our host Nate sits down with Orbita's new CEO, Patty Riskind, to discuss her career journey to Orbita and her impressions of the digital health market. Patty is a dynamic healthcare technology leader and innovator who brings extensive expertise and vibrant energy to Orbita.

With the accelerated adoption of technology throughout the pandemic, patients and providers are looking for more accessible, streamlined care journeys. We're at an inflection point, and it's critical we meet healthcare and life sciences organizations where they are with dynamic solutions. Learn what’s in store on this episode of Orbita's podcast!

Welcome back to Conversations with Orbita! Our host Nate Treloar and our guests Brian McKaig and Aziz Abdullah explore the barriers to medication access and adherence for underserved populations in this episode. These may include patients from rural areas, impoverished urban sectors, low socioeconomic status, the uninsured, from various disadvantaged backgrounds, and more. These social determinants of health produce significant care gaps and exacerbate health inequity.

The COVID-19 pandemic has deepened these disparities as underserved populations are disproportionately impacted by the economic consequences of this pandemic (unemployment, loss of ESI, food instability, etc.).

Hear how pharmaceutical companies can introduce digital tools to engage directly with these underserved populations and provide clinical decision support for healthcare providers. While access isn’t perfect, these digital health solutions offer continuous communication channels for patients and HCPs regarding drug information and support to mitigate some of these barriers to care.

In episode seven of the Conversations with Orbita podcast, our host Nate is joined by Dr. Teri Fisher, dubbed "The Voice Doctor," to explore the state of voice-first experiences in healthcare and how conversational AI virtual assistants have impacted the industry. What has accelerated the adoption of this technology, and what has hindered it?

Voice technology offers a convenient and natural method of communicating that elevates the role of the patient in the care journey. In conjunction with other communication modalities such as text and touch, this capability strikes the perfect balance to optimize patient engagement. Discover how voice fits into the healthcare IT landscape in this episode of Conversations with Orbita.

Voice technology has taken off in the last decade and seeped into various industries, including healthcare and life sciences. Since Amazon’s 2019 announcement of their first limited program for building Alexa skills that can transfer personal health information (PHI) in compliance with HIPAA, there have been numerous developments.

On episode 6 of Conversations with Orbita, Nate is joined by Orbita’s Executive Vice President of Global Markets, Nick White, to take a deep dive into the timeline of voice technology and HIPAA compliance. How has the application of this tool transformed the digital healthcare landscape? How does Orbita utilize voice technology to increase access to healthcare? Tune in to learn more from Nick and Nate.

Welcome back to Conversations with Orbita! Today our host Nate explores the role of conversational AI in proactive outreach and remote patient monitoring with Orbita Director of Sales for Healthcare & Strategic Accounts Jeff Haggard. These solutions alleviate burden on clinicians, create meaningful efficiencies, help health systems and payers connect better with their patients/members, and provide patients with invaluable support and clinical resources on-demand, 24/7 in their homes. Proactive outreach and remote monitoring powered by conversational AI include voice and chat communication, personalized care suggestions and reminders, real-time data collection and reporting to the healthcare provider - and more. With this type of personalized support and outreach, patients are more likely to adhere to their care plan outside of the walls of the healthcare organization.

Host Nate Treloar is joined by Orbita's Senior Director of Customer Success and Clinical Informatics Chelsea Biel, BSN, RN to discuss the COVID-19 vaccine rollout and the role of conversational AI in educating and supporting patients. Treloar and Biel discuss how automation produces significant efficiencies for healthcare providers (HCPs) and also improves engagement with patients. The range of capabilities Orbita's COVID-19 Vaccine Access Clinical Program offers - from cascaded communication to campaign analytics and insights - demonstrate the longevity of digital solutions in healthcare.
