Penn Medicine & Carelign Improve Efficiency in Care Coordination & Documentation

Clinicians at Penn Medicine developed a team-based clinical communications tool called Carelign that focuses on improved data visualization, tasking, and documentation. This tool has proven beneficial for users in improving care coordination and clinician efficiency. Carelign has since spun out as a commercial entity called CareAlign to enable other healthcare organizations to realize the same benefits the application has provided to Penn Medicine. Please note throughout this case study that any use of the term “Carelign” is Penn Medicine’s tool, whereas, “CareAlign” is the commercially available product.
