?Considering how far modern medicine has come, it’s surprising that the way doctors communicate and manage patients has remained relatively unchanged. There have been few shifts in industry standards, as most medical professionals share sensitive patient information and consult each other almost entirely through the phone (or even worse fax!). The use of archaic technology places an enormous burden on the entire healthcare system, costing providers time and money while making proper care inaccessible for patients.
Werq Inc was founded by an NYC doctor facing these problems first hand. Communication and collaboration are the foundation of what Werq aims to improve. Our tools help practices save time, increase revenue, and most importantly allow them to focus on care.
Werq started organically to solve problems faced by a busy set of doctor’s offices.
New York Ophthalmology is a busy practice with 5 locations around New York City. Its founder felt that reaching other doctors, contacting patients, and sending information was highly inefficient. To improve this process Werq was built, starting from simple ideas to solve big problems and create valuable solutions.

Why Werq?
1. Werq is changing the way Doctors, Patients, and Medical Professionals communicate.
Werq improves patient management and communication by taking advantage of both desktop and mobile apps. From individual reminders to mass texts about important updates like office closure, increasing accessibility not only saves time but also decreases the likelihood of missing the message. Previously a patient’s journey from needing care to seeing a doctor might include a lot of back and forth over many mediums. Now this can all be done through the Werq platform, both centralizing and optimizing the whole process.
With our patient app and growing network, Werq transforms the two way lane of communication and provides a multidirectional network. This helps practices reach more people in less time, all through Werq’s secure and HIPAA compliant platform.
1. Promo Communication
Specialty practice sends out promo pamphlets to attract customers to new office, delivery unconfirmed.
2. Appointment Request
Patient calls practice to schedule appointment, phone lines are busy, sends an email instead.
3. Appointment Scheduling
Front desk calls back to schedule appointment, patient is busy and doesn’t answer, has to call again.
4. Patient Records
Appointment scheduled and the front desk contacts the patients primary care provider for patient records. PCP faxes records to practice, they are incomplete and more are requested.
5. Appointment Reminders
Practice calls, sends an email and/or a text to the patient to confirm appointment.
6. Reschedule
Patient calls front desk due to emergency, must reschedule.
7. Televisit
Patient requires televisit, receives invite and downloads a third-party video chat app for televisit.
All these steps can be done through Werq.
Werq helps you modernize your practice by centralizing communication and patient management; while also helping you both cut out wasted time and grow your practice.
Werq is also improving the way doctors interact and communicate with each other. Improving the referral process is one of the most important aspects Werqs ability to save time and directly increase revenue.
Referral leakage for a health system can average anywhere from 55-65%. To add to that, 25 to 50% of referring physicians do not know whether their patients see the specialist. Referral leakage is a direct cause of revenue leakage, and can also lead to patients not receiving the proper care. By centralizing this process Werq decreases missed referrals and increases the amount of patients seen.
