MedMatch Network · Healthcare Referral & Patient Engagement Platform
Referrals that took two weeks on fax now confirm in 15 seconds
The problem
MedMatch Network sits between PCPs, specialists, ancillary providers, and patients. EHR fax referrals lose patients in the shuffle. The platform needed secure record exchange, insurance pre-qualification, direct patient scheduling, and provider-to-provider messaging — all compliant with healthcare privacy requirements.
How we ran it
- 01
Map the referral path, not just the UI
Fax-era referrals lost patients between PCP, specialist, and scheduler. The brief covered EHR hooks, insurance pre-qualification, and a Digital Referral Script from link to booked appointment.
- 02
Match engineers who had shipped healthcare integrations
HL7/FHIR and privacy constraints were in the match, not a crash course after day one. Patient app and provider dashboard had to stay compliant.
- 03
Trial on a real referral workflow
First work was the script: PCP link → records → schedule. If that path did not hold, the placement did not continue.
- 04
Run the network without a full internal team first
Placed engineers kept the patient app, provider dashboard, and messaging live as 19,900+ physicians came onto the network.
The team we placed
We staffed vetted engineers with healthcare integration experience onto MedMatch. They built the patient-facing app, provider dashboard, and referral automation workflow — including EHR interoperability hooks and the Digital Referral Script that walks a referral from PCP link to booked appointment.

The outcome
MedMatch reports scheduling and confirmation in about 15 seconds versus two weeks on legacy eFax. A network of 5,200+ PCPs, 500+ cardiologists, and hundreds of ancillary providers now runs referrals on the platform instead of phone tag between offices.
- Appointment confirmation
- 15 seconds vs 2 weeks
- Physicians on network
- 19,900+
- PCPs connected

Why it worked
- Scheduling and confirmation in about 15 seconds versus two weeks on eFax.
- Engineers who had shipped in healthcare before — not a generalist crash course.
- Digital Referral Script walks PCP to booked appointment without phone tag.
- 19,900+ physicians on the network without MedMatch hiring a full internal team first.
“MedMatch went from fax-era referrals to 15-second scheduling without us hiring a full internal team first.”
