TSG Innovation Lab Partners with CareLoop to Improve Patient Experience

DENVER, April 2, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The TSG Innovation Lab is excited to announce its strategic partnership with CareLoop, a digital health company based in Boulder, Colorado. Recognized as a promising digital healthcare startup company, CareLoop was co-founded by Dr. Foster Goss, an emergency physician and biomedical informaticist, to improve care coordination and communication between providers and patients.

"As a practicing emergency physician, I experience firsthand how the gaps in communication and care coordination adversely impact the patient experience and patient outcomes," stated Dr. Goss. "Partnering with the TSG Innovation Lab will broaden our reach throughout the acute care marketplace and complement The Sullivan Group's existing patient safety platform," says Andrew Strom, co-founder and CEO of CareLoop.

Using CareLoop's mobile application, patients and patients' family members have immediate access to information from their most recent visit and all previous visits captured by their healthcare providers in CareLoop. Clinicians gain access to CareLoop from their EHR system, providing a faster, more intuitive and HIPAA-secure method for communicating with the patients and other healthcare providers on the care team.

"At CareLoop, our mission is simple: Break down the barriers that exist within our healthcare system by creating one place for communication with the patient, provider and patient's family at the center of the conversation – driving better outcomes through improved communication, care coordination, and an exceptional experience," stated Dr. Goss. "When all parties involved in the care for the patient are able to connect and communicate effectively and efficiently, both the patient and provider experience are improved, and transitions in care, costs, risk profile and outcomes are drastically improved."

CareLoop will be joining other strategic partners of the TSG Innovation Lab, a recently established business unit within The Sullivan Group. "We are very excited that CareLoop has joined the TSG Innovation Lab," stated Dr. Dan Sullivan (JD), President and CEO of The Sullivan Group. "Using our RSQ® Solutions platform, clients have been successful with improving clinical decision-making and judgment with high-risk patient presentations. Adding CareLoop's communication and care coordination platform will strengthen our client's ability to improve patient safety. I look forward to working with Foster and his team on future product developments."
