Key Takeaways

Generated from the text of customer reviews

healow is a patient engagement and healthcare IT platform for physicians and clinic staff in hospitals and outpatient care settings. Users praise its patient portal as a useful tool for patient engagement, while some reviews note limited customization options for specialized workflows. Recently, healow CHECK-IN has been redesigned to support QR-code-based mobile check-ins, while practices receive arrival alerts and manage intake through a consolidated interface.

Our Verdict

The platform could be a good fit for mid- to large healthcare groups and multi-site practices with high patient volumes. It offers high usability in settings where practices need to coordinate patient engagement across locations and providers. The price may seem high to smaller clinics, but larger systems might find it more cost-effective over time. We recommend it for established practices managing patient engagement across multiple care settings.

healow Features

Sunoh.ai

Sunoh.ai is an ambient medical scribe that listens to conversations between providers and patients and converts them into clinical documentation. It captures SOAP notes along with lab, imaging, procedure, and medication orders, as well as follow-up visit details. Its speech recognition can also handle different accents, dialects, medical terms, and some non-English languages. Sunoh.ai can connect with EHRs and support custom templates or fields. Sunoh.ai can help lower the amount of manual notes clinicians may need to create during and after patient visits.

healow Genie

healow Genie is an AI-powered contact center that handles patient inquiries through voice, text, chat, and chatbot channels. It can answer routine questions, manage appointments, process refill or referral requests, and escalate more complex inquiries to staff based on rules set by the practice. It also responds to after-hours calls, collects relevant information, and prepares a transcript and summary for the on-call provider. healow Genie allows practices to extend patient access beyond staffed phone hours while giving staff a defined path for handling inquiries that need human attention.

healow Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM)

The RPM feature gathers physiological data from connected devices, captures time-based activities, and helps providers review health trends against patient-specific thresholds. The module can support work queues, reporting, proactive intervention, and automated billing. It also helps decrease alert fatigue by organizing patient data for clinical review. For clinical teams managing patients who need ongoing monitoring outside the clinic, this can make changes in vital readings easier to identify and act on.

Terrible customer service and communication

Pros

There are no pros

Cons

Communication and IT support is abysmal. The functionality on the app and web portal for composing/sending messages to doctors is not working as it should and IT team tells you that the problem is "on your side", but they offer no help or assistance in fixing the issue. Clinic staff are not adequately trained to set up the patient-facing portal so that patients can compose and send messages to their doctor's office.

Very poor when compared with MyChart

Pros

I'm actually a patient. I don't like a thing about Healow. In comparison with MyChart it is really poor.

Cons

I cannot write directly to my doctor. The TO field says General Messages and cannot be changed. When my doctor responds he has obviously dictated his response to someone who then types it out to respond to me. I was expecting a message from my doctor but had not received any word that he had responded. In MyChart I would have received an email saying I had a message in MyChart. I am very glad my primary care physician uses MyChart and not Healow!
