Referral Automation for Midwives

Let your AI agent handle referrals, assessments, and patient education so you can spend more time with patients and less in front of your computer.

You’re a midwife juggling patient charts in Athenahealth, tracking lab results in email, and updating plans in Google Docs late at night. Every week, hours slip away to manual paperwork and double entry. Important details get missed, and you’re left with less time for patient care.

An AI agent that automates referrals, assessment tracking, and patient education for midwives, reducing paperwork and saving hours every week.

✕Copy patient data from Athenahealth into Excel for tracking

The hidden cost

What this is really costing you

In healthcare clinics and birth centers, midwives spend 6–7 hours each week copying patient data from Athenahealth into Excel, reviewing lab results sent via email, and creating referral letters in Word. This repetitive work drains time from direct care and increases the risk of missing critical updates. The constant need to document, flag risks, and prepare educational materials leads to after-hours work and burnout.
