From Workforce Support to Virtual Care: Meet 5 Digital Health Companies Helping Health Systems Improve Access & Engagement

Health systems are working hard to remove barriers to care, connect more deeply with patients, and support participation in clinical research. In this first installment of our series, we highlight five digital health companies making it easier for patients to access the services they need and stay engaged throughout their care journey.

Orbita

Picture a patient using voice or chat to reschedule an appointment on their phone while waiting in the school pickup line—and the request instantly updates in your EHR without staff intervention. That’s the power of Orbita’s conversational AI. 

For CIOs, Orbita doesn’t just improve patient access—it frees up staff, reduces call center strain, and strengthens digital front doors in a way that feels effortless for both patients and IT teams. Now table stakes, Orbita helps future-proof health systems alongside your existing tech stack.

Dyania Health

Imagine uncovering crucial patterns hidden deep in clinical notes—like identifying patients eligible for cutting-edge therapies or clinical trials, or quickly automating data for populating required registries. 

Dyania Health’s AI doesn’t just automate chart review—it enables health systems to find trial participants as well as unlock insights across research, quality, and operational reporting. For CIOs, it means turning mountains of unstructured data into actionable intelligence—without manual chart dives or fragmented tools.

KeyCare

Picture a snowstorm that keeps patients at home—but they can still see their trusted health system’s providers through a fully integrated virtual visit, with their entire medical history at the clinician’s fingertips: with an EHR that runs on your existing tech stack.

KeyCare allows health systems to expand reach without expanding infrastructure, preserving data continuity and keeping patients in-network. For CIOs, that means scaling access seamlessly, without adding tech headaches.

Peerbridge Health

Imagine a heart patient going about their daily routine—grocery shopping, visiting family—while wearing a small, comfortable device that quietly watches for signs of trouble.

Peerbridge Health’s remote cardiac monitoring and virtual rehab extend care beyond the hospital, supporting early intervention and helping patients stay safe at home. CIOs gain a scalable way to deliver specialty care without added brick-and-mortar investment. 

CancerIQ

Envision a patient coming in for a routine visit and leaving with a personalized cancer prevention plan—all because the system flagged them as high risk in advance.

CancerIQ helps clinicians have more meaningful, proactive conversations about prevention, turning routine checkups into life-changing opportunities. For CIOs, it’s a way to embed precision prevention directly into everyday workflows, improving outcomes while advancing value-based care goals.

Looking ahead

These innovative digital health companies show how innovation can reduce barriers and bring care closer to patients—whether that’s through AI-powered conversations, new virtual care models, or expanded trial opportunities.
