Over the past year, we have helped our clients meet and exceed their goals in a variety of use cases,” said Vytas Kisielius, CEO of ReferWell. “In 2024 we should expect a continuation of the transformative shift occurring in healthcare, with an even greater focus on tackling the pervasive issue of access to care. Our team remains committed to finding those ‘referable moments’ that identify new opportunities to apply our care scheduling platform and care concierge service to help match patients not only with the care they need but care that aligns with their individual preferences.”
