Simplifying Appointment Booking through Seamless Integration: Founda Health and Timerbee
A Shared Vision for Seamless Healthcare Experiences
February 07, 2025
Digital transformation in healthcare demands open, secure, and interoperable systems. Founda Health provides a vendor-neutral interoperability platform that connects hospitals, practice systems, and digital health applications - enabling real-time, standards-based data exchange.
Timerbee, developed by Imilia Interactive Mobile Applications GmbH, is an intelligent appointment management tool that streamlines scheduling for both patients and care providers. The platform leverages AI to optimize workflows, minimize no-shows, and ensure efficient use of medical resources.
Together, Founda Health and Imilia are solving a long-standing challenge in healthcare: fragmented appointment booking systems.
The Challenge: Disconnected Appointment Booking Systems
Despite the rise of digital health solutions, many hospitals and practices still rely on siloed systems that do not integrate with their broader IT infrastructure. This leads to:
- Inefficient manual scheduling workflows
- Increased administrative overhead
- Poor patient experience due to lack of transparency and access
The Solution: Deep Integration via Founda’s Interoperability Platform
By integrating Timerbee through Founda Digital Health Integration Solution, healthcare providers can embed a modern, user-friendly appointment experience directly into their existing infrastructure. The collaboration delivered:
- Seamless integration into IT environments, enabled by Founda’s standards-based, modular architecture (IHE, HL7, FHIR)
- Smart, AI-supported scheduling that adapts to both patient needs and clinical workflows
The Outcome: More Efficient and Accessible Patient Care
Thanks to this integrated solution, healthcare providers can unlocked real value:
- Patients benefit from intuitive, real-time scheduling, increasing convenience and reducing missed appointments
- Healthcare staff experience reduced workload, as manual coordination is replaced with automated processes
- Organizations see better resource utilization and fewer bottlenecks in care coordination
This success illustrates the power of interoperable, plug-and-play solutions in tackling real operational challenges - without heavy integration overhead or vendor lock-in.
Looking Ahead: Building the Foundation for Future Innovation
The partnership between Founda Health and Imilia demonstrates how modern digital health tools, when integrated via an open and standards based interoperability platform, can rapidly enhance patient care experiences. Together, we’re paving the way for more scalable, efficient, and patient-centered healthcare delivery.
