AIDA Healthcare Joins Epic Toolbox – Streamlining Post-Acute Referrals for Epic Users

AIDA Healthcare Joins Epic Toolbox – Streamlining Post-Acute Referrals for Epic Users

Kirkland, WA — May 1st, 2025 — AIDA Healthcare, the care coordination platform trusted by hospitals nationwide, has officially joined Epic’s Toolbox program with the release of AIDA Healthcare (v2.6). This milestone confirms AIDA’s alignment with Epic’s recommended integration practices, ensuring hospitals can extend care coordination workflows without leaving the Epic environment.

AIDA Healthcare is now listed in the Toolbox on Epic’s Showroom under the Community Resource Network (CRN) category. Designed to work seamlessly within Epic, AIDA allows acute care coordination teams to electronically engage with all levels of post-acute providers in real time—while keeping the end-users within the Epic interface.

Built for Epic-first systems

AIDA integrates directly with Epic, allowing hospital care teams to manage referrals entirely within the Epic interface, while post-acute providers respond through the AIDA Responder portal—available to them at no cost. This setup brings AIDA’s national network of post-acute providers into the Epic experience, including access to provider availability and care-matching data. Referral responses, including discharge dispositions, flow automatically back into Epic, including Epic CCSC, giving hospital teams full visibility with no extra data entry.

Measurable Impact

By using AIDA’s Epic-integrated tools, hospitals have eliminated the need for faxes and phone calls when coordinating with post-acute providers—reducing manual communication, accelerating response times, and improving overall efficiency. Across the AIDA network, the median time to post-acute referral acceptance is now under 50 minutes. These improvements contribute to a reduction in patient length of stay (LOS) between 8% to 12%.

Verified Epic Integration

To be listed in Epic’s Toolbox, technologies must follow Epic’s recommended connection practices for their category. AIDA’s inclusion reflects the platform’s technical maturity and its ability to streamline complex referral workflows across a hospital’s existing Epic infrastructure—with minimal IT lift.

Designed for the Future of Coordinated Care

Joining Epic’s Toolbox program reinforces AIDA’s position as a fully integrated option for Epic-first health systems looking to modernize referral workflows. With its nationwide post-acute network and no-cost provider tools, AIDA reduces administrative burden and enables care teams to spend more time on direct patient care—supporting AIDA’s mission of enabling healthcare professionals to invest more time in direct patient care.

Innovating Healthcare: AIDA Healthcare's Groundbreaking Integration with PointClickCare

In a significant leap forward for the healthcare coordination industry, AIDA Healthcare has announced its latest technological advancement, an integration with PointClickCare, to revolutionize how acute and post-acute providers collaborate. Now available in the PointClickCare marketplace, this innovative application leverages the latest healthcare technology, including SMART on FHIR standards, to streamline operations and enhance patient care.

The integration is a game-changer for admissions coordinators, who have long been bogged down by the tedious and error-prone process of re-entering demographic information from AIDA into PointClickCare. By automating this process, the application minimizes the potential for errors and significantly reduces the time spent on administrative tasks. This efficiency boost allows the admissions team to allocate more time to high-value activities, such as direct patient interaction and managing complex admissions cases, thereby enhancing the overall patient experience.

This technological advancement translates into substantial timesaving for a skilled nursing facility processing around 1,000 referrals monthly. Specifically, by cutting down just three minutes of administrative processing per referral, the facility can save up to 50 hours per month. This considerable time saving can be redirected towards providing better patient care, embodying the very essence of healthcare.

At the heart of this integration is using SMART on FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) standards, which are at the forefront of enabling interoperability within the healthcare sector. These standards facilitate the secure and seamless exchange of healthcare information across different systems, ensuring that patient data is accessible where and when it’s needed, thus improving the continuity and quality of care.

This collaboration between AIDA Healthcare and PointClickCare exemplifies the potential of technology to transform healthcare delivery. By bridging the gap between acute and post-acute care providers, this integration not only streamlines administrative processes but also enhances the quality of patient care. As healthcare continues to evolve, the focus remains on leveraging technology to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and, most importantly, provide better care to patients. AIDA Healthcare’s integration with PointClickCare is a testament to this ongoing commitment to innovation and excellence in healthcare.
