How it works
Stream Health connects to DrChrono via their cloud-based REST API using OAuth 2.0 authentication, retrieving patient clinical data from DrChrono's database. Our platform consolidates DrChrono data with external patient records from hospitals, specialists, labs, imaging centers, and health information exchanges—creating comprehensive patient histories despite DrChrono's cloud-native architecture that may not connect to legacy systems.
Our AI + NP gap-in-care analysis identifies missed preventive services, chronic care management opportunities, medication management gaps, and telehealth-appropriate services. The analysis is optimized for DrChrono's mobile-first workflows, prioritizing care gaps that can be addressed during short patient interactions or virtual visits.
Care gap findings are delivered back to DrChrono via API, appearing in mobile-optimized formats including: iOS and Android push notifications for urgent care gaps, in-chart alerts visible on iPad during patient encounters, daily digest emails for non-urgent gap follow-up, and patient portal messages for patient-initiated scheduling. Revenue cycle teams receive reports showing telehealth-appropriate billing opportunities and in-office visit revenue potential.
