RE Assist, a turn-key solution providing information about financial assistance for healthcare costs, wins top honors
FLORHAM PARK, NJ / ACCESSWIRE / December 4, 2024 / Real Endpoints today announces it was named a Fierce Healthcare Innovation Awards winner in the Financial/Operational Solutions category. The program highlights outstanding innovation that is driving improvements and transforming the industry.
"We are thrilled to be recognized by Fierce Healthcare as the 2024 winner for the Financial/Operational Solutions Category. We know that too many Americans struggle to pay the out-of-pocket associated with their drugs and medical procedures," says Susan Raiola, President of Real Endpoints.
RE Assist, a 2023 Fierce Healthcare Innovation finalist, leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to provide patients, caregivers, and patient support program case managers with an accurate and real-time solution to the problem of high out-of-pocket costs. The tool is underpinned by an AI Discovery engine that searches the web for national, regional, and indication-specific charitable funds and foundations. Newly identified funds are validated through a rigorous human curation process. In 2024, the number of funds tracked by RE Assist grew 25%.
RE Assist provides information on charitable foundations, their eligibility requirements, and whether funds are open (i.e., able to provide assistance) or closed (unable to provide assistance). Information is consistently displayed in a simple to understand dashboard organized by disease indication. Funds are listed in alphabetical order, and date and time stamped for transparency.
"The Innovation Awards winners showcase the organizations that have demonstrated innovative solutions that have the greatest potential to save money, engage patients or revolutionize the healthcare industry," says Rebecca Willumson, SVP and Publisher of Fierce Biotech and Fierce Pharma. "We are very pleased to congratulate the winners on their accomplishments."
The expert panel of judges reviewed the hundreds of awards submissions and determined which companies demonstrated innovative technologies and services that have the potential to make the greatest impact for biotech and pharma companies.
