Referral Management Solutions for Hospitals USA

Improve referral turnaround times, close care gaps, and boost revenue with Cabot’s secure, interoperable referral management solution.

Hospital Referral Management, Reimagined

Today’s hospitals face a perfect storm of rising patient volumes, strict value-based care mandates, and multidisciplinary treatment pathways. Yet, many still process referrals with phone calls, faxes, and disparate spreadsheets—creating leakage, delays, and frustrated providers. Cabot’s Referral Management Solution modernizes every step of the referral journey, from the point of order to completed follow-up. We connect disparate Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems, automate insurance eligibility checks, and give all stakeholders real-time visibility into referral status.

With our HIPAA-compliant platform, hospitals can:

  • Reduce manual data entry by up to 70% through bidirectional EHR integration
  • Cut referral leakage by 35% with automated tracking and smart routing to in-network specialists
  • Accelerate average referral turnaround from weeks to days, improving patient satisfaction
  • Analyze referral patterns to optimize service lines and maximize revenue capture

Built on a modular microservices architecture, Cabot’s solution scales effortlessly—from a single community hospital to a multi-state health system—while meeting ONC and CMS interoperability regulations. Whether you’re replacing an outdated system or digitizing referrals for the first time, Cabot delivers the strategy, engineering, and ongoing support you need to streamline care coordination and deliver better outcomes.

Why Partner with Cabot for Referral Management?

Cabot has spent more than 15 years engineering digital health products that put clinicians first. Our dedicated healthcare practice blends certified interoperability specialists, UI/UX designers, and data scientists who understand the nuances of U.S. hospital workflows. Unlike one-size-fits-all vendors, we tailor every implementation to your clinical, operational, and financial goals.

Clinical Insight: We embed clinicians in our discovery sessions to ensure the platform supports real-world referral patterns—subspecialty triage, multidisciplinary tumor boards, transitional care, and beyond.

Technical Rigor: Our engineers are fluent in SMART on FHIR, C-CDA parsing, DirectTrust messaging, and multi-tenant cloud architecture. Security best practices such as PHI tokenization, TLS 1.3 encryption, and SOC 2 processes come standard.

Measured Outcomes: Every project begins with baseline KPIs and ends with a data-driven impact report, so leadership can quantify ROI in reduced leakage, higher appointment show rates, and improved HEDIS scores.

Ongoing Partnership: Post-launch, Cabot offers 24×7 support, quarterly optimization sprints, and optional DevOps management—enabling your teams to focus on patient care while we handle the tech.
