About Buddy Healthcare

Buddy Healthcare is a European-based digital health company automating hospitals' care coordination and patient communication processes. The company's mission is to help implement the best possible digital care pathways and form an effortless communication link between home and hospital. Their purpose is to empower healthcare providers to improve patient care today and tomorrow.

Buddy Healthcare’s platform and mobile app automate patient communication and health data collection. It educates and reminds patients about upcoming tasks or appointments automatically and the patient is always aware of the next steps that need to be taken or which tasks need to be completed.

The patient-facing mobile app has an easy-to-use timeline that provides and delivers patients with all information related to their care as well as:

  • Information on the operation or appointment
  • Administrative forms such as electronic pre-assessment form
  • Procedure or appointment checklist
  • Educational videos or photos
  • When to take/stop the medication
  • Wound care information
  • Prehabilitation or rehabilitation exercises
  • Pain scale or other VAS measurements
  • In-app questionnaires (PROMs, PREMs, QoL)
  • Secure messaging between patients and care teams

What problems does Buddy Healthcare solve?

Buddy Healthcare’s care coordination platform reduces administrative burden by automating hospitals’ care coordination processes. The care teams can easily monitor patients’ pre- and postoperative compliance through the clinical dashboard.

With the patient-generated medical data, care teams can prioritize patients and identify potential early signs of Did Not Attends (DNAs) / no-shows or cancellations before surgery. The platform also optimizes waiting list management, supports hospitals in keeping patients updated on timescales, and ensures that patients are fit for surgery through automated prehabilitation education and condition check questionnaires.
