Telemedicine App Leverages Chat to Create Engaging Healthcare Experiences
Blog post from Stream
Medecision, a company specializing in digital care management solutions, sought to enhance patient engagement for its healthcare clients by integrating a chat system that would allow real-time communication between patients and care managers. Initially, the engineering team aimed to develop an in-house chat solution but faced challenges related to scalability and feature development. Consequently, Medecision pivoted to evaluate third-party chat SDKs and ultimately selected Stream over other competitors like Sendbird, due to its user-friendly interface, comprehensive documentation, and favorable pricing model. The integration of Stream's chat solution proved to be seamless, allowing Medecision to focus on core competencies and quickly deploy enhanced patient engagement features, while also benefiting from Stream's mature APIs and supportive team.
