Problem
Healthcare providers spend a large portion of staff time on repetitive administrative tasks such as appointment scheduling, patient intake, reminders, and record handling, which reduces time available for direct patient care and contributes to burnout.
Solution
Cortico offers a cloud‑based automation platform that connects to most electronic medical record (EMR) systems and streamlines the entire appointment workflow. Patients can book, reschedule, and attend virtual visits, complete digital intake forms, and access their personal health records through a secure portal. The system automatically sends email and SMS reminders, delivers test results and files, and enables two‑way messaging directly from the EMR via a plug‑in. By automating these processes, clinics reduce call volume, lower no‑show rates, and free staff to focus on clinical tasks while improving patient satisfaction.
Target Audience
Primary customers are outpatient medical practices and clinics of all sizes, as well as larger health systems seeking to reduce administrative overhead and improve patient engagement.
