My Health Direct provides an easy to use web tool for clinicians in the ER to re-direct non-emergent patients to the appropriate setting in the community with a confirmed appointment based on the patient needs such as proximity, payor network, timeliness, language and specialty. This reduces cost of treating non-emergent patients in the ER and builds relationships for the patient to have ongoing primary care in an outpatient setting. The solution has also spread to scheduling follow-up calls from the ER and to community and HMO call centers making appointments for people.
This solution allows users to search for, compare, schedule and confirm actual visits within a community of providers offering services, including donated and discounted care.

My Health Direct solves problems and delivers value. Designed to be simple and direct, MHD directly connects users to a market without the need for expensive new investments.

Collaboration between the private and public sectors is the key to success in cost-effective patient management, and for the first time this group effort is made easier with MHD.
