Sleep Therapy: No-Touch Resupply

Resupply sits at the center of sleep therapy providers’ ongoing quest to improve patient outcomes and business efficiencies. Now a new technological approach seeks to take that to the next level. What is it, what’s involved, and what other HME categories could use it?

Any sleep provider will tell you resupply represents a critical component of patient care and therapy outcomes, as well as a fundamental element of their business performance.

They’ll also tell you it is a costly and complex workflow desperately in need of as much automation as possible. Enter “no-touch resupply.” 

In the latest episode of the HME Business Podcast, Michael Lorenz, vice president of resupply software for Brightree, joins the podcast to describe the technology behind no-touch resupply, how it radically refines workflows, and what kinds of business efficiencies and care benefits providers can reap through this innovation.
