The Challenge

A 12-facility regional healthcare network was facing escalating patient wait times and unsustainable operational costs. Emergency and urgent care volumes had grown 40% over three years, but staffing had not kept pace. Patients were being triaged manually using paper-based intake forms and verbal handoffs — a process that averaged 47 minutes from arrival to assessment.

The Solution

NetAesthetics designed and built an AI-powered triage system integrated directly with the network's Epic EHR. The system uses natural language processing to extract and classify patient-reported symptoms at intake, routes patients to the appropriate care level automatically, and generates preliminary clinical documentation for the attending clinician to review and confirm. The build took 6 weeks from kickoff to production.
