BUSINESS CHALLANGE

In all regions across the USA, there are cost differences 3x or higher for the same procedure and often the lower cost providers have higher quality ratings. The priority for Spoke Health is to assist consumers in navigating complex healthcare decisions and guide them to high quality but lower cost providers. Additionally, Spoke provides human care coordinators to provide a positive experience of care. Spoke needed a mobile-ready tech solution to guide the patients through their episodes, and a custom work-flow CRM tool for their care coordinators.

Our goal is to bridge the transactions from patients, to advocates, to providers, and to admins seamlessly. We are to create products that solve the gap within the transactions between different roles.

Project Overview

Chromedia built the entire Spoke platform from beginning to present day. Spoke outsourced all of their tech needs to Chromedia. This was our third endeavor within the healthcare industry but our most complicated project to-date. Our involvement from the beginning allowed us to contemplate the effects of HIPAA compliance, security, and scalability on the architecture of the platform from the first day. Our experienced UI/UX team combined everything into a simple and intuitive user experience that makes a difficult process much easier for the patient. Our clever engineers built a platform that can accommodate surgeries, imaging, PT,  Rx, wellness, Pre-Op, and Post-Op modules and can be used as a SaaS business at the same time.
