Mount Sinai Health System Physician Access Services Selects Kyruus ProviderMatch™ For Enhanced Provider Data Management and Patient-Provider Matching

New York Health System Will Implement Patient Access Solution to Match Referrals to the Most Clinically Appropriate Providers

BOSTON--()--Kyruus, a leader in provider search and scheduling solutions for health systems, announced today that Mount Sinai Health System, a leading integrated health system serving the five boroughs of New York and broader metropolitan area, has selected the ProviderMatch for Access Centers and KyruusOne provider data management solutions for its Physician Access Services team. Detailed provider profiles, user-friendly Smart Search capabilities, and real-time scheduling will help the team enhance access to Mount Sinai providers and refer patients to the most clinically appropriate providers for their needs.

Mount Sinai’s Physician Access Services team handles appointment referrals for nearly 700 providers, making it essential for agents to have visibility into providers’ areas of clinical focus as well as the ability to search across the provider base efficiently. Mount Sinai selected Kyruus based on its ability to aggregate a vast amount of provider data and generate detailed, accurate provider profiles—utilizing Kyruus’ proprietary clinical taxonomy—while also enabling search by real-time availability. The team will also use ProviderMatch’s integrated patient interaction management solution to track patient calls and referral outcomes for ongoing service optimization.

“Helping patients find the best providers for their needs while delivering an outstanding access experience is our top priority,” said Dr. Abraham Warshaw, SVP, Chief & Medical Director, Access Services. “Kyruus’ taxonomy helps agents see what our providers do at a uniquely detailed level so they can match patients optimally, while the ProviderMatch search engine streamlines the referral process.”

“Accurate provider data is the foundation of patient access, but a lack of detailed, up-to-date information about what providers do is a common theme across the industry,” said Graham Gardner, CEO of Kyruus. “We’re proud to offer Mount Sinai’s Access Services team a solution to that challenge, so they can efficiently and effectively identify the right providers for their patients.”
