The Challenge
Yale-New Haven Hospital (YNHH), a non-profit world-class medical center, wanted to become a destination hospital in the Northeast. To achieve this growth objective, YNHH needed to increase its operational efficiency and prestige by attracting more patient referrals and transfers.

Integration of various data repositories and the phone system into one centralized system to manage the life cycle of the transfer case

Results
Successful implementation of a 24/7 “Y Access Line”—a single-source phone center for physicians
Ability for healthcare providers from other hospitals to speak with a live clinician who can expedite their request for a patient transfer
Successful completion of 700 transfers in the first four months the system was in operation; now averaging 250+ transfers a month
