The solution places outbound calls both one and four days after discharge. Using conditional logic to build a list of questions, patient responses to these “yes” or “no” questions are recorded and stored in a Cosmos DB database. Reports are generated showing both individual and aggregate data, allowing healthcare staff to prioritize their efforts when following up with patients.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type="full_width_background" full_screen_row_position="middle" bg_image="16161" bg_position="left top" bg_repeat="no-repeat" scene_position="center" text_color="light" text_align="left" top_padding="4%" bottom_padding="4%" overlay_strength="0.3" shape_divider_position="bottom" bg_image_animation="none" shape_type=""][vc_column column_padding="no-extra-padding" column_padding_position="all" background_color_opacity="1" background_hover_color_opacity="1" column_link_target="_self" column_shadow="none" column_border_radius="none" width="1/6" tablet_width_inherit="default" tablet_text_alignment="default" phone_text_alignment="default" column_border_width="none" column_border_style="solid" bg_image_animation="none"][/vc_column][vc_column centered_text="true" column_padding="padding-2-percent" column_padding_position="all" background_color_opacity="1" background_hover_color_opacity="1" column_link_target="_self" column_shadow="none" column_border_radius="none" width="2/3" tablet_width_inherit="default" tablet_text_alignment="default" phone_text_alignment="default" column_border_width="none" column_border_style="solid" bg_image_animation="none"][vc_column_text]
