Whitepaper: 20 Criteria Hospital Leaders Should Use to Evaluate Telepsychiatry

Hospitals are under increasing pressure to expand behavioral health access while managing emergency department congestion, inpatient capacity and limited psychiatric coverage.

Many organizations have adopted telepsychiatry to reduce boarding and improve access, yet leaders often struggle to evaluate which partners can meet hospital-level standards for quality, reliability and integration. Without a clear framework, critical gaps in credentialing, response times or workflows can be missed.

This whitepaper offers a practical checklist outlining 20 criteria to guide telepsychiatry partner evaluations. It helps hospital leaders move beyond surface features to assess long-term clinical, operational and financial fit.

Key takeaways include:

• How virtual behavioral health services can improve access and reduce ED bottlenecks,
• Quality, credentialing and governance criteria leaders should assess,
• Operational and technology requirements that support timely consults, and
• Reporting and financial considerations that impact sustainability.

Whitepaper: A Practical Framework for Payer AI in Value-Based Care

Payer leaders are managing deeper downside risk, tighter margins and rising expectations for transparency, quality reporting and audit readiness.

This guide outlines a practical framework for using AI in value-based care while managing compliance and operational risk. Rather than focusing on algorithms in isolation, it examines the foundations required for sustainable impact – including data quality, interoperability, governance and workflow integration.

Inside, you will learn how AI can function as a support layer for risk adjustment and quality programs, reinforcing rather than replacing clinical and coding judgment. The guide explains how predictive models, natural language processing and rules-based logic work together within a unified evidence framework to surface insights that are traceable, explainable and defensible.

Key takeaways include:

• What an AI-ready data and interoperability foundation requires,
• How AI supports risk adjustment and quality workflows responsibly,
• Governance principles that reinforce transparency and compliance, and
• Practical steps for scaling AI across payer programs.

The Patient Assumptions Health Systems Can’t Rely on Anymore

For decades, many health systems operated with a foundational assumption: Patients would follow clinical guidance, choose care based on proximity and accept a hospital or physician’s recommendations largely without questions.

That reality is gone.

Today’s patients are more informed, more skeptical and more digitally empowered. They are far more likely to evaluate care the way they evaluate almost everything else in their lives – by searching, comparing, listening to peers, and prioritizing experience and trust.

As Devika Mathrani, chief marketing and communications officer of New York City-based NewYork Presbyterian, told Becker’s, “That reality no longer exists – there is much more trust-but-verify.”

Across the industry, that shift is forcing marketing leaders to rethink not only messaging and channels but also the very role marketing plays in shaping the consumer experience.

Whitepaper: The Hidden Revenue Loss Hospitals Rarely See Until It’s Too Late

Hospitals focus heavily on denials, but denials are only part of the problem.

Across the U.S., hospitals are losing missions each year to incomplete or inconsistent documentation that understates the true complexity of care delivered. Beyond visible denials lies a larger, quieter margin gap: the “Silent Payer Discount,” where earned revenue is quietly forfeited because documentation fails to fully support severity of illness or intensity of services.

This whitepaper examines how denials and the Silent Payer Discount stem from the same root cause: breakdowns in the mid-revenue cycle, where clinical insight, coding accuracy and compliance must align before billing.

Drawing on data from hundreds of hospitals, the report outlines how organizations are closing this gap by strengthening documentation accuracy upstream before claims ever reach the payer.

Inside the whitepaper:

• How mid-revenue cycle breakdowns drive both denials and underpayment,
• Where documentation gaps most commonly trigger revenue loss, and
• How clinically governed review models are improving accuracy before billing.

eBook: The Audience Advantage: Smarter, Privacy-First Targeting for Healthcare Marketers

Healthcare marketers know who the ideal targets for their campaigns are:

• Nearby patients,
• People overdue for care,
• High-intent website visitors, and countless other valuable segments.

In most industries, activating these audiences is simple with pixels, retargeting, lookalikes, and exclusion lists.

But in healthcare, evolving privacy rules like HIPAA and new state laws make traditional tactics risky, pushing teams toward broad targeting, higher costs, and limited insight into what’s working.

This eBook shows how healthcare organizations are using privacy-first audience targeting to rebuild their performance foundation – enabling compliant precision, measurable results, and dramatically faster execution.

What you’ll learn:

• Why pixels, retargeting, lookalikes, and exclusions aren’t compliant in healthcare,
• How privacy-first audience targeting works without exposing PHI,
• High impact use cases you can launch immediately, and
• How top organizations are reducing costs, improving efficiency, and scaling faster

Healthcare Readiness Report – A Primer for 2026

Health systems are investing heavily in AI, cloud and digital transformation. Yet many lack the foundational readiness required to make those investments pay off. Nearly two-thirds of healthcare leaders say their IT is not ready to manage future risk, even as AI reshapes care delivery, workflows and workforce expectations.

This report explores why readiness gaps persist and how they directly impact clinician capacity, innovation speed and patient outcomes.

Based on a global survey of healthcare leaders and real-world infrastructure data, this report reveals how technology debt, fragmented cloud strategies and trust gaps are holding organizations back.

Learnings include:

• Why clinicians are losing up to 23 days per year to data inefficiencies,
• Where infrastructure and cloud decisions are quietly increasing risk, and
• How leading organizations are aligning AI, infrastructure and workforce trust to prepare for what’s next.
