Does your international patient wait a day for a reply and then go four days without hearing from you?

International Patient Flow responds to every lead in real time, in their language, and guides the patient all the way to surgery with follow-up that AI builds case by case.

The challenge

A reactive model that lets patients go cold

At most hospitals, international patients are handled by a dedicated team during business hours. Inquiries come in by phone, email, web form, or WhatsApp, in different languages, and are answered in the order they arrive, with no clear prioritization.

Follow-up depends on each team member's memory. There's no system to flag which patient hasn't heard back in days or what they still need to move forward. First contact takes around 24 hours, and patients go an average of 4 days without anyone talking to them.

The hospital only reaches out when it has something to share. It's a reactive model, and patients comparing options in other countries go cold during those silences.

How it works

From the first message to surgery, with no silences

01

The lead comes in

By phone, email, web form, or WhatsApp. The platform captures it and logs it by source.

02

First contact in minutes

Automatic reply in the patient's language, at any hour, separating the noise from real leads.

03

Micro-status tracking

The AI collects the medical information, generates the quote and treatment plan, and schedules reminders based on each patient's situation.

04

The case manager acts on signals

When a silence or the patient's situation calls for it, they get an alert with full context and an assisted message.

The case in detail

From reactive to proactive support

What a micro-status is

What changes for the team

4 min read

A patient considering surgery in another country doesn't decide in a single conversation. They decide over weeks, and every silence sends them back to comparing options. International Patient Flow was built so that patient is never left waiting.

From reactive to proactive support

The usual model is reactive: the team responds when a message comes in and reaches out when the hospital has something to share. In between, the patient doesn't know where their case stands. With International Patient Flow, every lead gets a response within minutes and in their own language, and from there the system stays in touch at every stage: medical reports, quote, initial consultation, and treatment or surgery.

The platform can connect to the hospital's schedules and HIS or run as a standalone cloud platform. The most common setup is connecting the hospital's website, so leads are handled without human intervention and the team only sees the real ones.

What a micro-status is

Alerts aren't set up manually, case by case. VidasPrime's AI reads the information the patient shares in each interaction and builds contextual follow-up based on micro-statuses: it's not enough to know the patient is at the "quote" stage; you need to know whether they have questions, are putting it off until a certain date, or are just asking for a price. Each micro-status defines what needs to happen and when.

What we know · VidasPrime Assistant

Patient living in Romania who writes in Romanian. Has sent a knee MRI and is requesting a surgery quote. Prefers to travel in the spring.

Patient record: current stage, next action, and AI-generated summary. Mock-up with fictitious data.

The result is signals: alerts that a patient has gone too long without a response or that their situation has changed. That's where, and only where, the case manager steps in.

What changes for the team

The team no longer has to rely on memory to figure out which patient is up today. They open their tasks, see what's urgent and where things have gone quiet, and when they write, they do so with full context and an assisted message suggested for the patient's situation. More than 30% of the process now moves forward without human intervention.
